This may be a silly question, but how do South Africa have 7 points including 3 bonus points from only two games?
Victory against Samoa: 4pts
6 tries against Samoa: 1pt
Loss against Japan: 0pts
4 tries against Japan: 1ptWhere does the final point come from?

Loss vs Japan was within 7 points. So it was a losing bonus point, like England yesterday.

Thanks, seems like a silly system to me... (a close loss with 4 tries is equal to a conventional draw)... but rulez is rulez.
I had the enormous pleasure of meeting David Pocock today. Chatted to him for about half an hour and he didn't mention rugby once. I know it's obvious that famous sports people will have interests beyond what we see on TV, but it's refreshing to have been reminded of that in person. Interesting and lovely chap... I told him I'd cheer him on on Saturday.

Why are Wales wearing black?!?

Director asleep for that quick tap penalty.

Come on Wales.

I think Pooper are going to destroy us at the breakdown tomorrow

Yeah he seems like a really good guy.
As much as it pains me I think I'm going to have to support the Aussies on Saturday.

Need the AB's to win by at least 56 for my accumulator to come in.

Georgia will be stoked - not quite coming together for the ABs

Saw the Georgia game yesterday.
Aren't the kiwis just the most butthurt humourless fans around?
Their faces when millennium stadium cheered for the Georgians...
Also, the face of the Georgian chap that won man of the match. Such feels.

The allblacks, though - not looking unassailable by any stretch, and I think they know it.

Japan looking really impressive again. That try on the cusp of half time!
-
• #2368
Although I'm surprised at them kicking two penalties at the start of this half, when they need two more tries for a bonus point?

Nigel Owens is a great ref.

Go Bokke!

Massive game. Come on Robshaw, deliver!

Nervy. Looking better than against Wales.

• #2373
I think we're fucked.
-
• #2374
Neil, I can confirm we are fucked.
Textbook try. Why aren't we playing the ball off 10 to the forwards.

Is that 3 or 4 visits to the Aussie 25 and zero points.
The 2003 team seemed to keep the scoreborad clicking over.
Dan Biggar had a stormer. Agree with Wilko, didn't hate that last decision for line out. But clivo's right, posts score then back at them. To Australia!
