And that’s FT. A poor start to the game cost us. Too much boerewors for breakfast.

Battering Canada at the moment. Only one pool game today, the other two (Australia & USA) tomorrow. They both looked good, but so do we!

Scored a couple of good try’s there, hanging on in here. Here, I really don’t follow 7s at all. How are we this year? Rebuilding?

“Rebuilding” is a very Dodsonesque way of describing us so far, yes.

Anyway, New Zealand pulled it out the bag in the last minute v Argentina to give us a QF v the Blitzbokke.

McFarland is a decent player, would like to see him get some time with the warriors.

That's about all there is to say about that tournament. Despite some people happy that they were top 8.

First match up in Vegas tonight. A piss poor start and we’re 7-0 down. Fancy us for the cup.

Now 14-0 down. It’s a far better experience with the commentary down, a bottle of Jura and Neil Diamond on the stereo.

Oh! I say!

21-7 Argentina. Terrible refereeing, but if you don’t like it, scotland, don’t put yourselves in a situation where that sort of stuff matters. Contest kick offs like you mean it, make tackles, ruck better.

You’re listening! 14-21.

Was just about to post that we battered New Zealand 19:52, but that’s when we’re playing tonight! Genuinely got excited there.

We did thump Uruguay in the other game though, so win and we’re through.
