A bit of a struggle trying to watch live sports without fibre 😂

Doesn’t help that the stuff stream seems to be struggling with the load occasionally. Bit of buffering even with fibre.

Long weekend and decent time for kick off. Reckon there’s a lot of people watching.

Question for those that have been paying closer attention to this world cup - But there was a passage of play in the 1st half where the All Blacks had like 3~4 consecutive offloads (albeit they had a penalty advantage).

Have they been playing this freely the entire world cup?

[-] fritata_fritato 5 points 2 years ago

Not really. It shows how cavalier the all blacks feel right now and how poorly Argentina are performing

[-] fritata_fritato 4 points 2 years ago

Argies will need a miracle to get through this

Prophetic words with that early second half try

Christie has amazing spatial awareness. His offloads and passes are spot on.

You’re a lifesaver. Stuff stream dropped out with 5 to go and then started from kickoff and wouldn’t catch up.

[-] NoRamyunForYou 4 points 2 years ago

Wow. Didn't come off, but what a cross kick

[-] terraborra 4 points 2 years ago

Only watched the first game against France before this semi. This match is way more interesting without all the backwards and forwards kicking.

Pumas have looked good on attack. Be interesting to see whether they can keep the pace up as historically they’ve run out of gas in the second half.

Similar here - This is actually the first Full match I've watched this world cup. Pretty stress free experience :)

Honestly doesn't feel like a World Cup Knock Out Game.

Poor Argentina not even trying now.
