Fell asleep on the couch in my Villa in Seminyak last night during the first half and woke at the end. Couldn't believe my eyes, thought I had too much Bintang!

Looking forward to doing the same all week :)
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

Great win by the Aussies, how good is Foley at no 10 and the Hooper and Pocock combination! Even the forwards dominated!

Brilliant match and exciting sport. Now that we actually have a decent five eighth and scrum we are a real chance. There is a very real chance that the tepid AFL Grand Final could get the Bronze medal this weekend.

Gutsy win by the Wallabies over Wales to top the group. Defense was amazing, to have 2 players binned at the same time and hold out the Welsh was unbelievable. Wales rejected a couple of pens to go for the try but came up short. Avoid the AB's side of the draw now and play the Scots in the quarters next week. Should towell them up and then for he real stuff

Only saw the highlights but didn't look as though the Welsh tried to exploit the 2 men down Wallabies with width. Some incredible defensive work by the Aussie lads though, the play to deny the Welsh an almost certain try was awesome.

Awesome defensive effort by the Wallabies while Foley continues his good goal kicking. How's the prep for the Welsh goal kicker! LMAO!
Wallabies seem to have most facets of the game working well atm.

NZ should crush them, SA are are a pretty average side, only got over the Welsh thanks to a blind ref

Never really loved Rugby but the combination of a newborn and a new Sportsbet account has seen me get right into it and really enjoy it.

Kiwis were breathtaking last night and the Saffers were far from impressive. I called it from a fair way out but looks very much like an Anzac final for mine. Should be a couple of good games tonight with a couple of countries of my heritage likely to get the chocolates.

Aussies by 10
Irish by 6
