Semi-OT: USA Rugby Today

Really really sucks about Argentina, we'd be playing for some gold right now. ****

Goddamn, Isles is amazing.

 

[Fixit]

My goodness, Isles is a burner.

 

[WaterfallJumper]

So what happened? My stream was completely frozen. Couldn't watch a lick of this game.

GB into the final against Fiji. C'mon boys!

 

[fnordcircle]

Ugh, Fiji is just dominating. C'mon....

Disasteous start.

 

[manxman2601]

Pathetic. But the Fijians are so big, they can stand in the tackle and offload the ball with one hand keeping the play alive.

 

[fnordcircle]

Disasteous start.

When GB couldn't even handle the kick after the 2nd try you gotta think things aren't going their way.

 

[fnordcircle]

Christ almighty.

Would have taken a silver at the start of the tournament and wasn't expecting a win against the favourites. Would have liked to see a better effort though.

 

[Fixit]

I'm new to rugby, but I assume that being down 22-0 to the best team in the world is not ideal.

 

[manxman2601]

Christ almighty.

Holy ****, Fiji is crushing it.

 

[Fixit]

Aaaaaaand it's worse.

 

[fnordcircle]

I mean at least they're not making this a white-knuckle affair.

2007 and 2011 Super Bowls taught me I far prefer to watch my team get blown out in a title match like SB XX compared to a heartbreaker.

 

[manxman2601]

The Fijians first ever Olympic medal. They'll be going ape in Fiji.

 

[manxman2601]

Hopefully this'll be like the Pats vs Browns on Brady's return.

 

[fnordcircle]

I wish we could see some reactions from Fiji on this, at least.

It's like poking a mouth ulcer with your tongue, you really shouldn't but you can't stop.
