Loved that national anthem from Tonga. Tears in their eyes.

You’ll hate this Stew but this Ireland team gives me 2003 England vibes just in terms of their discipline especially in the ruck. It’s a well oiled machine at times.

Wales got it done but made hard work of it Credit to the Portuguese though. They gave their all in that fair play. Looking forward to the Aussie/ Fiji hame tomorrow. Should be a belter. Forgot all about Ireland being on tonight aswell, thought there was only one game on.

In fairness, that was a great team. I can see the similarities. And if you remember England beat NZ and South Africa in the build-up and we’ve done the same. Next week will sure be interesting.

1 minute to go, 7 points behind and you kick it away. Don't understand that at all.

Tough half! Japanese slowed down a bit though which is great. Rucks were rapid at the start

Has Ford actually carried the ball yet? Ball is in the air almost everytime he has it. Few silly mistakes have stopped Japan getting a hold of this game.

All things considered not the worst result, but the Boks probably left 10-15 points out there today without a proper goal kicker.
Not sure it's that much of a downside to face France in light of their most recent injury.
