Frank Quitely Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Presumably the Irish will encounter teams much less profligate with their goal kicking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barring some bonkers result against a minnow. We need to win our 3 remaining games with a BP in them all to get to 15. If we prevent an Irish BP, they will only have 14. You'd also expect SA to get a BP against Tonga 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksburnDandy Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Ah well that's depressing. Not only are Ireland looking possible champions, we're probably out before playing our second game. As a layman, if Ireland don't win it with this squad peaking at the right time, it should be viewed as a failure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I think we need bonus point wins in our last three games and hope SA and Ireland slip up somewhere, which I can’t see happening. a crap group for us but that’s just the way it goes, I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHF-23 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 All lining up well for Ireland tbf, the boks won't execute that poorly again. A game later and Pollard sinking those kicks and it's a different game. We essentially need three near perfect games to rack up big scores against Tonga and Romania and comfortably beat Ireland.

If we win all three games with a BP/beat Tonga & Romania with a BP and beat Ireland by 8 then we finish above Ireland regardless of what happens in South Africa v Tonga, but yes, we're fucked. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Golden God Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 I’m a complete idiot when it comes to rugby but surely to f**k South Africa’s try was a forward pass, looked forward in a real time and it didn’t even look close on replay. Is there a strange rule I am missing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a strange rule I am missing? I thought exactly the samething.....wasn't even mentioned by the commentators. In fact there was a check but it was for potential obstruction. The throw out wide seemed to land 3 or 4 yards forward from where it started. At thetime Iwas happy for it to stand as it was looking likely to help Scotland 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksburnDandy Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Well we're now into win or bust territory already today. 1 game into the pool. It is what it is, but it's a huge uphill task for Townsend and co. It is extremely unlikely but I hope it can be done. Speaking with my Irish brother in law last night, the arrogance is off the scale with the route to the final set already. We would be happy to get through the pool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair if we had been 3rd seeds in England or Wales group we would be over the moon as it would have been near enough (as the highest ranked team) guarenteed semi final 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
