    From a mate

    'I don't get why the Scottish RFU would waste time / money on a legal challenge to the RWC organisers.

    The rules were clear before the tournament began, both teams have played the same opponents so far, so Japan quite rightly would deserve their place in the next round should their game get called off.

    It's all a bit bizarre!'

    That's where I am with all of this. I suppose that one can always argue whether they were the right rules, but such as they are, they have been followed to the letter. To suggest that somehow undermines the integrity of the tournament seems nonsense to me

    Scottish coach a few days ago when it was thought a possibility that Ireland Samoa would be canned:

    “My first thought was that it was called Typhoon Haggis, obviously it’s not," he said. (Ho ho ho)

    “The Ireland game cannot be postponed, it has to be played that day,” he said. “If it cannot be played that day then it’s two points for each team.”

    Scottish coach yesterday when it was thought a possibility that Japan Scotland would be canned:

    “Scottish Rugby fully expects contingency plans to be put in place to enable Scotland to contest for a place in the quarter-finals on the pitch, and will be flexible to accommodate this”.

    Most acrimonious build-up to a Rugby game I can remember for a long time. Scottish team management are behaving like prize fluffybunnies.

    Go Japan!

    That is true, but he does realise that our match was cancelled right? Denying us a chance to get some players into a proper RWC "match" (I use that word in the broadest of terms).

    Really weird how how these bellends can turn everything into a comparison with the ABs (which they will lose). Aura I guess.

    Swearing by its self doesn't seem to be a problem. Swearing near sexual stuff or graphic descriptions of sex acts seem to get us flagged

    We had a few flags in a row but nothing for the last couple of months

    Coffee. This is what happens when you learn pastry from the French, beer from Germans, whisky from Scots and coffee from Americans.

    An espresso is the only way to drink it; prevents them ruining it with whatever they do with the milk. That said I have on occasion found a small place hidden away that knew what they were doing.

    Not just limited to Japan either, I managed to find one good cup in Taiwan, same in Korea and none in China. That they're so rare is what makes me remember.

    "337 fatalities from MU-2 crashes" although I'm sure it was generally pilot error...
