Awww, that's a shame for Brown
Hope they manage to get through without any injuries
I'm always surprised that there aren't a lot more serious injuries the way they go at it
Well done, chaps!
Yaaay! Thanks for the company peeps
Their shirts, shorts and socks clash. I hope they're back to playing in white next time
Thanks for the chat and chuckles everyone

Yep. If you get hurt at that game, you're hurt. Full stop

Japan have beaten South Africa! Brilliant!

The good news:
I had Japan to win at 25/1!
The bad news:
My best mate will be round in 10 minutes as we're going out for the evening. He's South African.

You can buy him a drink to help him drown his sorrows! (Best not to mention that you're buying it with your winnings)
Does anyone know how (or indeed if) I can change the thread title?

I reckon Fluffs or Jen will drop in and help you out Madame.
But that SA v Japan game! What a thriller! Didn't rate the other games today much but I didn't pay too much attention to either of them tbh.
Is this the biggest upset at a World Cup?

Thanks, Xochi.
The Japan game was the only one I managed to see today. It was, as you say, a real thriller and I was so happy when the Japanese chap went over for the try in the dying moments. You could see how much it meant to them,

I think so. The South African players looked shell-shocked at the end. I reckon they thought this game would be a stroll in the park!

Oh wow!

Probably: the closest I can think of was in 1991 when Wales lost their Pool match against Western Samoa at Cardiff Arms Park. The famous joke amongst Welsh fans at the time was "Thank God we weren't playing the whole of Samoa!".

I followed your advice on both counts, Madame!
The think I noticed about the Japanese players, is how quick their hands were,which meant the whole game went at a cracking pace.
Just back from Wales v Uruguay with a dragon on my face despite injuries and a somewhat lacklustre game (opponents not familiar or very good) we won convincingly....and I got very close to George North *swoons*
I wonder if the Japanese can deliver another shock result today? It would be great if they could, just to prove the match against the Springboks wasn't a fluke.

Not sure how you do that, Amythist. Hope you had a great time at the match!
What a shocker it'd be if Namibia won.
Cmon Wales ! Cymru am Byth!
C'mon England!

C'mon Wales!!! Are you in that photo Amy?
As usual, I'm an unbiased neutral...
It's already shaping up to be a cracker.
England not settled yet I don't think
Calm down chaps
Now they've got going
Touchdown Wales!
