Both too close to call, both simarly ranked teams, only one team has never made it to a semi final from the bunch though…
Can an ascendant Wales squeek past a well firing Argentina who have perhaps failed to spark this tournament
Can a 17 match unbeaten run Ireland get the monkey off their backs and make it through versus a 3 time world cup winning union?
Don’t miss either!
I had to stop watching just before half time after my watch warned me about my heart rate. I’ll risk injury for my Mapgies next week against the Bulls - and wanted to get some work done on my boat :)
What I did watch I thought was decent rugby; up until what I believe was a very harsh yellow card to Aaron Smith. I think Barnes could have forced Ireland to play on a bit more rapidly. A lot of huddling, walking to line outs and delayed kicks. Ireland controlled the tempo after the first 15 or so and that’s what got them back into the game.
Anyway, who cares about the RWC, my 'pies are playing in the first ever First Division final next week and I am FIZZING.
Noticed the Irish being slow to the line out every time. Given they were supposed to be in top of that,yeah Barnes could have had a word.
Yeah i’d love to see that, and kickers taking an age to kick for touch stamped out of the game. The rules are already there, just need to be applied.
