Couple of boys playing again - Adams and Parkes.
No clear 10 back up
We should still be good enough to win with a BP.
-
@MiketheSnow Wouldn't Halfpenny be able to fill in at 1st 5?
-
@Bovidae or parkes
-
Gatland saying Parkes, Liam Williams or Hallam Amos.

-
Add Uruguay to my favourite teams list. Love the way they play
-
You have to admire their effort on defence.
-
This Uruguay defence is impressive legally or not. Stopping the Welsh ball carriers in their tracks.
-
Knock on against Wales??
-
Uru’s attack at least has a little bit of variation to it.
-
Pass NOT forward. Play on and go back to TMO to check. Robbed of a certain try.
-
Good penalty kick and option.
-
What a box kick!
-
Wales have left so many points on the park due to forward passes and dropped balls. Wales playing like a 16 year old getting laid for the first time. Way too eager and lacking patience.
-
@chimoaus Yeah they are but they only need to win.

Yeah I'm sure they will penetrate any moment now.
-
@chimoaus If anything, they're getting a decent hitout out of this so far.
-
Come on Uruguay, go to the line!
-
I really like Uruguay as a side. Makes me wish the Nation's Cup had got off the ground, would have liked to see how they would go in a tier 2 competition.
-
Fuck it, wish these smaller teams would gamble more.
-
Would love to see how many tackles Uruguay have made. Surely they'll tire soon
-
Half time Wales 7 - Uruguay 6, Wales should have had a lot more. You would think Wales should run away with it.

Woah my stream is a good 4 mins behind!
-
I would open to another super rugby side based in Argentina combining some Argo-Uruguayan talent. By far the most impressive of the minnows in this RWC.
-
@chimoaus Yep, and Namibia, too.

You can blame that on the likes of Scotland and Italy. Too scared they might get relegated.
-
I wish Uruguay could cause another upset! Not going to happen, but what a story that would be!

Too right. I know we would rather face japan or Scotland but I hope japan slaughter the Scots. The most self-serving nation in world rugby.
-
Wales don't have a lot of world class players outside their usual starting XV. The All Blacks' reserve team would beat this one by a canter.
-
God Barnes and Kearns are tough to stomach at half time.

None of the Welsh players out on the park tonight would make the Crusaders. Maybe the Chiefs though
-
@ACT-Crusader Parkes would make the Blues or Canes.
-
@Stargazer Before financial problems curtailed Namibia's involvement in the equivalent of the Heartland Championship in Sth Africa a couple of years ago the best they had ever done was either second or third. They would get absolutely murdered (worse than the Kings if it is possible - you would probably rate them at about the level of the Kings Development Squad) if they were in Super Rugby.

Hard pass.
-
These chain Gangs at the back of mauls are getting longer and longer.
-
I've just turned this game on, WTF??? I know Uruguay are improving and all, but they are versing (
) the very-recently-#1-team-in-the-world!!!This would be a wonderful boil-over
-
Some good play from Wales there but penalty to Uruguay undoes it.

@chimoaus post - and my reply to it - was about a second tier Nations Championship (so basically a 2nd tier to the TRC), not about Super Rugby.

It isn't going to happen, Wales have been pretty dominant, just can't quite get over the line. They will soon.
