    How the * was that not a card for Tuilagi? Stupid by the Argentinian to tackle that high after they got off with one earlier.

    This game is massive. Samoa are more than capable of getting something here.

    They’ll win IMO, it’s the bonus point which is the kicker.

    I’m surprised Japan have taken the points on both penalties rather than going for tries. The bonus point is huge.

    That match was a fix.

    1) Samoa knew they were going to do * all from their own touchline.

    2) A crooked feed into the scrum I don't think has ever happened in a WC

    Samoa are absolute *, why not kick 30 yards up into touch and play from there to try and push for a try instead of taking a * scrum on your own try line, *.

    They couldn't do that, they were out of time. They had to keep it in play.

    It was a fix.

    Hopefully Scotland smash Japan and then they have to play NZ.

    If Samoa had scored they’d have gotten a point. It was in their interest to keep the game alive. Worst-case scenario would have been to * over a team that they’ve no fondness for right now (which is what happened).
