Congrats to England on their win over Fiji.

They seemed a bit nervy. But bonus point secured.

Roll on tomorrow for Ireland vs Canada.

I fear my boys (Springboks) are not good enough these days, especially now that they are forced to adhere to racial quotas.

Japan vs Boks was epic game!

Regardless of the upset, that was the best game of rugby I have seen in a long time, the balls they had to forgo the draw and chance the win, dang! those ninjas have learned rugby.

Must be the Aussie coach who is making the difference...!!

You're right, Gareth. Seems Aussie coaches do best when they're coaching everywhere other than here.....

Racial quotas may have a negative effect on a team's game performance, however it helps encourage inclusivity (yep, I just made that up, not sure if there even is such a term) and may even be beneficial in the long run.

Still though, personally I prefer having people placed on a merit basis.
