[2015 RWC] Pool B: Scotland vs. Japan (23/09/2015)

[ZeroTwo]

Gray is more wooden than the stands. Total plank.

 

[celticc]

Japan going for the points more than they did against SA

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Wtf was that? A Scot knocks on, Japan are given advantage and the ref ends advantage BEHIND where the knock on happened so Scotland make a net gain from a knockon!?

 

[Colombia]

that's probably the game, Japan needed to be more clinical in the Scotland 22

 

[Every Time Ref]

Surprised the TMO didn't have a look at his foot as he grounded it, think it was OK though

 

[ZeroTwo]

Thought Bennett might have a foot out before scoring the try? Again lovely play with some silky hands.

Thought Bennett might have a foot out before scoring the try?

My thoughts exactly

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

God the drone of Scooootlaaaand is horrible. That's 2 Scottish tries where they had their foot in touch. Shamfur dispray.

[Mcfadden]

C'mon Tanaka. You're behind on the scoreboard. There is no reason to be that slow from the base.

 

[Chistera]

His foot went out before he scored the try didn't it?

 

[ZeroTwo]

Surely has to be a yellow?!

 

[Will]

Well his foot was bloody well In touch for that one.

 

[Colombia]

heart-breaker for Japan, all Scotland now

been a crazy few days for Japan, they'll be better for a few days rest, wasn't a terrible effort today

Nope.

 

[kesh]

FFS, put cash on SA at 10/1.

 

[Mcfadden]

Bugger.

Looks like the dream might be over for now. Japan have certainly had the opportunities to profit with points, but they haven't capitalized on them. And it seems as though the Scottish fightback is on. It was a perfectly winnable game, still time left too, but I can't see it happening now.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

For me TMO should of been called to look at
1) Hardie out of touch
2) Bennett foot out of play.

Annoys me that Japan have to face the top 2 ranked teams in the pool in 4 days.

Like Fiji.

 

[Mcfadden]

Yeah surely one of those tries Bennett was out. Even if he wasn't it's worth a look.
