Five areas... when you know Wales are shit they lose.

Areas that always let us down.

Areas where if we were just normal at them, bog standard, or could defend it..we would be about 30% better.
But we never can.

1) Accepting the restart. We fuck this up, against proper teams we lose. End of. If we are 10 minutes into the game and we are dropping restarts, just save yourself the misery and go watch Emerdale. It will be an all game long thing.

2) rushing passes, passes not going to hand or over running the distributer...if we start doing this, its no Bueno.

3) winning own lineouts in the oppositions 22. When we can't do this, it's just fucked.

4) the ref not spotting the opposition backrow trying to swing around the scrum. The opposition start getting away with this and it always ends badly for us.

5) just the opposition finding their shit by kicking for territory in the second half...off 12 or 13. Centres that can kick just, do us. We have never been able to cope with teams that can use this.

There you go. Areas our professional rugby players, who are paid to do this game btw, paid to train at it...can't seem to get around perfecting.

REFRY is getting excited about the Rugby and appears to have forgotten how many players will sustain life-threatening trauma while he is entertained. :sad:

I mean do you want me to talk about head injuries..my shit is irrefutable on the subject. There is no need for the Jury to retire. Rugby should be stopped. It probably will be bankrupted any day now. Why even talk about it? Obviously rugby cannot do anything about head collisions. When it does or tries...the fans lose their minds..so basically I feel like it's all over, Hitlers burnt corpse has just been even more disfigured, the white flags are waving...the Reistagg has been de-swashtikkered.. and we are just waiting for the Russian tanks to arrive.
Never been one to gloat or rub people's faces in it, as I am so used to being right about shit, in the face of "detractors", that being so doesn't even move the leaves on my trees anymore....and yet it's a sad day that is a'coming..
Enjoy it while it lasts.

May as well get pissed.

Hmm. I think Argentina have the better team, so although both sides have been rubbish I think they have the ability to get better quicker, so I’m going for them.

In saying that, Gatland is an absolute genius

I think this will be a fairly comfortable win for Wales.
So I squares up, casual like.

I see Argentina demonstrating their superiority but being denied a SF place as Wales are again gifted a win by some poor decision making by the officials, much as in their group match against Fiji.🇫🇯

Wales are a relatively poor side playing pretty well. Argentina are a good side playing relatively poorly. Wales should take it.
