Thank you.
Did I say it wasnt? No I didnt. Playing overseas for our players has been a gem. You seem to underestimate us, thats what Im gettin at. You just gotta read your past posts to see all the proof. I remember reading one of your posts saying that there was 'no way' Wales would lose at home again and then we beat them. We're pretty good you know.
Ive always been more of a fan on the '91 Manu Samoa era. The originals are the best for me, our very first years was our BEST era.
I dont care what anyone writes thats their opinion. I just read and consider like I do with your posts. The reason why I think that you dont know Rugby is because of your posts and your normally wrong picks at who will win a game.
Karate moves??..Argh! I give up
I have underestimated Samoa. Wales had lost 4 in a row, including against Argentina at home - looking as they were semifinalists in the RWC and then cemented the rep. with a nice Grand Slam, and how good they looked during all those matches - I thought "noooooo way are they losing to Samoa (which is good though) AT HOME twice in a row, and 5 in a row overall". You see what I mean ? I couldn't have seen even England or Ireland for e.g. or Argentina a second time winning in Cardiff at that moment.
On the other hand, to remain realistic, it's not like too many ppl thought Samoa had a chance. It's not just me Sam, I mean, Samoans and Pac. Islanders generally and then a handful of ppl around the world, but who'd have thought ?!
As good as Samoa has PROVEN to be, nobody knew they could do it before the match tbh. This match really represents their arrival I think. Putting 42 on Canada in itself ain't enough to impress the Rugby world.
In fact, as I've said before, this match in Millennium was PIVOTAL. Not just for Wales (understanding they've got some work to do), not just for Samoa (HUGE upset), but for France. It's a wake-up call. Thank God, I say, Samoa went to Wales first and not us first. We've got a tendency of underestimating (e.g.: Tonga RWC) lower ranked teams...surely the Tonga affair was severe enough that we may never underestimated Pac. Islanders anymore, but still that victory in Cardiff is a wake-up call. For the world, but more imminently, for us, France.
To think you guys won it with such a terrible kicker !!! Someone on here didn't agree with that, but c'mon, you seen the match right ?! That guy would be more useful as a prop than kicking the ball ! He missed some of those like he was aiming at someone in the crowd 90° left...
Of course that's just ONE game, I think he was fine in Canada....but on that ONE game in Cardiff, he looked simply amateur. Like, I'd never seen this in a pro rugby match to be honest.
