Japan v Wallabies

Old Samurai Jack

Last Aussie try was created by taking the Japanese player out off the ball. Opened up the gap for White.

Duluth

QC with another try assist. This time for Japan

The score is close but it feels like the Aussies are in control (27-20)

That was the worst ref call at a maul I've seen for a while

Seems like Williams is only looking at infringements from Japan.

Hasn't seemed that way to me. What's the pen count in the last ten?

Bones

I'm watching via alternative means and have some amateur (I think) yank commentators. Anyone else got them? Hilariously awful.

It's evened out a bit in the last few minutes tbf.

How was he holding his weight...using his head

23-27 Aus

@akan004 ok that last pen was bullshit. Valetini clearly had stolen the ball already and just held onto it.

Broke off with 3 players in front of the ball carrier...

Looked like he was holding his weight to me, but the jap released it, Valetini had the ball, just chose to not leave the tackle. Go figure.

Duluth

32-23 final score

I gave up watching, they were that horrible.

Ref keeping the wallabies in it.

But get Japan in RC FFS

Old Samurai Jack

Ref pretty poor for both sides. Japan spent half the time offside and Aussie seemed to get the rub of the green a bit too much.

@bones I thought he was doing a headstand while stealing it.

The main guy has obviously been watching rugby for only this year. So many bad takes on plays and replays. Funny listening to him try to decide if the aus player was out or a try had been scored... when they were looking at the shoulder charge.

Don't be jealous of his hair.
