    @sparky thought the Japanese hooker was the standout No2 by some distance, he was very impressive.

    @Billy-Webb Etzebeth and Mosert were both superb. Mosert was excellent off the bench in the final.

    Scott Barrett makes my team for his superb performance against the Boks.

    The Wallabies were mediocre but Latu, their hooker, was very impressive, making the hard yards systematically. His workrate was incredible and his LO throws faultless.
    I don't understand the ones who have taken Owens in their top XV. He's no world beater IMO, just sound and solid.
    The Uruguay halfback was excellent and is worth a mention. I did not pick Faf de Klerk because his box kicks were terrible.

    Those Opta stats reminded me of my favourite moment of the pools - Lappies tipping the ball out of some Russian’s hands, telling their fly half (?) the bus was full and then strolling in for a try.
