Opening Sunday of the Rugby World Cup: Matches thread
(lemmy.world)
After the highs of Friday, was yesterday ever going to live up to that match? Well today we have an off the boil Japan, an upstart Scotland, and a Wales team that most want to forget already in the valleys. Hopefully we see some more great tries (looking at you England), a few less handling errors (back at you Argentina), and some flair (not just mullets Australia)
| Home | Time (UTC+1) | Away |
|---|---|---|
| Japan | 1200 | Chile |
| South Africa | 1645 | Scotland |
| Wales | 2000 | Fiji |
Weather today is hot. Expect more sweat, more drenched towels in water breaks, and do we need to bring back handling gloves?
Have a great Sunday, mines begins today with Rugby Tots for the 2 year old. Please, anyone out in France: post a picture!
That last 15 minutes was hard watching for me. Some shocking decisions made it very difficult for Wales to close the game out.
Fiji are good but, as a Wales fan, I think Caleb Muntz being injured might have been the difference here.
