Fuck me
Howley's betting partner?

[Victor Meldrew]

Last 5 minutes have been insane

[MiketheSnow]

Fuck yes

[Frank]

Why the fuck didn't Samoa kick it out?

[ACT Crusader]

Bonus point and what a reaction by the players.

Leiua poor defence.

[Stargazer]

Wow. Well done Japan!

Great game!

[Victor Meldrew]

How fucking cool, calm and collected are Japan under pressure?

Practice. Practice. Practice.

[voodoo]

I had them by 11, fck!!!

[ACT Crusader]

Well done both sides. A great watch and Japan is in the box seat going into the Scotland match.

Japan went 3-1 last RWC and didnt qualify, lost out to Scotland. Now they get a second bite at the cherry in the final pool game next week.

Only remaining pool game I'm interested in now

[Frank]

So, for Ireland to top the pool, they must beat Samoa and Japan must lose to Scotland.

[Yeetyaah]

Bloody good stuff Japan. Entertaining game. Japan to top pool A

[Damo]

That was a really enjoyable game.

We'll played and we'll reffed.

Will be cheering for Scotland next week. Ideal result for the ABs would be a Scotland win without a bonus point and for Japan to finish 2nd based on a better for and against.

[Bovidae]

A great game to watch after the dross of the previous game.

A draw between Japan and Scotland will do the trick.

I think both will happen

[Yeetyaah]

@akan004 Why would it be ideal for us to face Japan? The tournament hosts with all the momentum going into the finals? Ireland clearly didn't take them seriously, so as an All Black fan, I'm totally taking them seriously.

[MiketheSnow]

If Scotland get through it will be a travesty.

Scotland were humiliated by Ireland.

[Old Samurai Jack]

Obviously you have to take Japan seriously but cripes, if the ABs can't beat Japan reasonably comfortably then they don't deserve a top 5 ranking or the world cup.
