Another walkover for Enzedd, though I’ve had to back Uruguay in the prediction league to try and close the gap

Didn't even look off balance, but you know he was.

I keep hearing her say Blackadder. Is there a Blackadder on the field? Perhaps Uruguay has a cunning plan.

First clear simulation i've seen so far in the World Cup. Fortunately Jonker & Barnes didn't fall for it. Was bound to come into international rugby with the head contact process.

38min BP. Better than some other teams! Lets hope Uruguay get 1!

Bonus point guarantees us the quarterfinal, yeah? Even if Italy smash France we're ahead on points differential.

Goes to head to heads first so I think yes

[–] not_woody_shaw@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Head to heads before points diff? Cool what was the result of that match again?

[–] Olap@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

New Zealand on the board. Took them slightly longer then I thought to get their first try of the match

2 New Zealand Penalties negated New Zealand tries according to the announcers
