    @akan004 Ok so that's the ruling...great...Come on Scotland..I nice win by 8 would do the trick.

    Either Scotland or Japan in the quarter would be fine, preferably Japan for me.

        @akan004 neither team has beaten the ABs but I agree Japan would be a better choice...anything than those bloody Micks...they know how to beat us. 😞

        Yeah. Ireland will be very tough so best to avoid them. We should beat either Scotland or Japan comfortably enough.

        That's pussy talk

        I spent a lot of money to attend that game. As much as I'm confident we'd beat the paddies I would prefer not to chance it. Besides, a Japan/Scotland, England, SA path to the final would be more desirable

        And now I'm confused as to whether you're a pussy or just chicken

        I know that there's possibly a joke of some sort to be made here about being unable to differentiate between a pussy and a cock, but after passing on an earlier opportunity to caption the flooded tunnel footage from Japan's training session ("...so THAT's why that call it a pool game"). I no longer trust my judgment.

          @Catogrande said in RWC: Japan v Scotland (Possible) (Pool A):

          @Snowy @jegga I do wonder though that if it was say England or NZ that needed to play to qualify whether or not the outcome from World Rugby would have been different. I'd like to think not, but I'm not so sure. Now this is not a dig and either team, more taking a view on the commercial decision that World Rugby might have taken.

          It would have been exactly the same.

          Any NZ team that had been thrashed in a pool match before playing the unbeaten leader of the pool would be considered so useless that they got what they deserved. World Rugby would delight -- positively delight -- in stiffing us. Taking the ABs out early in any tournament would vastly increase the interest from the neutrals to each succeeding match, as everyone would think they could pull it off.

          And England have no Aura, so it isn't an issue.

          I guess you missed the bit saying it wasn’t a dig at either? 🙄

            It’s a very different atmosphere to the AB/SA game! Beer? No line. Merchandise? Huuuuuuuge line.

            Anyone else here? I’m buying!

              Pretty amazing how far Japan have come since Ellis got his 6 all those years ago.

                Good point Gregan just made, that Japan would have targeted this game from as soon as the draw was known. The Ireland win was a massive extra obvs, but they would have done a lot of homework on this

                I still have Scotland by 5

                  So Scotland need to win with 4 tries and deny Japan 2 bonus points?

                        Phil Kearns “Ben O’Keeffe will think this games is about himself” I just might agree with Kearns for once

                                      Why don’t they have singers at the WC, the players are well out of tune.
