[RWC2023 QF3] England vs Fiji (15/10/2023)

[Grizwald]

Maybe, since fans are reactive by nature, but to be a top top side you need 4 class locks, currently we have itoje (if he can get back to his best) and chessum who has the potential. Martin to me will end up at 6. So there is room there for him to have dips and still develop with the squad if someone else does come a long a tear up trees.

Lewis Chessum at 20 has lots of potential he's taller and heavier than his brother. Looked very good in the U20s world cup.

I'm not sure if there would be a more emotionally charged final than Argentina v England.

The New Zealand v Ireland fixture would likely pale in comparison.

For Argentina maybe.

To be fair, the scrum was stable and then the Fiji prop took a step side ways and then bored in

Yeah, wasnt technically a wrong decision

Why do they keep going on about the lawes hit. It happens when you get double and triple teamed

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Been a while since a pointless kick.

 

[IT157]

Botia actually get's pinged for hands on the floor!

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Love the Fijian passing, even in defence.

 

[Rinkadink]

Definitely looked like a high shot on Semi there, not a red but minimum of penalty.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

He's got good feet that Earl

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Good Fijian defence.

 

[Saintjay]

Definitely looked like a high shot on Semi there, not a red or anything but minimum of penalty.

None at all from what i could see tbh.

TMO not looking at that?

The woman antipodean commentator yelling someone got slapped.

That was Farrell

 

[Saintjay]

How can you take out two players off the ball?

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Fiji block 2 different runners and all ok...

Fair. I see Semi still talking about it... After watching him for years on the field I've not seen him complain about a non event before.

Also enjoyed the two ex team mates of Gengey n Semi having words.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Blatant drop and knock on there...

 

[Grizwald]

Her life flashed before her eyes then

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Fidji, ils s'appellent Fidji, un equipe pas comme les autres.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Miles forward!

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Earl been consistently very good. Not often you see 8s tracking down wingers.
