Great gave away 2 penalties . Stupid

Stupid from Seuteni; fortunately no head contact, so only a yellow for a late no-arms tackle.

First try of the game goes to Chile!

3 - 7 Chile

Poor quality turf for scrums.

Samoa going for the BP instead of driving into the heart of Chile

Poor tactics

Commentators using Frank Bunce representing Samoa to highlight how great the new representation rules are, probably isn't the best example.

He's a kiwi with Niuean heritage right?

Poached from Auckland.

PS. Commentary is shite.

Looking forward to this game, but it's just a little bit crap.

No attempt to wrap in that low tackle from Samoa
Penalty

@MiketheSnow Jesus saw you edit that post Mike. They all look the same eh

Probably not as bad as the other night when I think Rupert talked about Eddie Jones' lot taking on Japan this weekend.

Samoa will be lucky to get out of the pool based on this performance

That guy on Rugby Pass saying they’re going to the SF is looking more and more like a berk

Samoa's handling is club level.

Was typing to a mate about tomorrow’s match at the same time

Williams needs to have a word with SAMOA

Killing the ball every opportunity

Samoa need to play TEST rugby

@MiketheSnow yeah sure ok mate

@Bones said in RWC Week 2: Samoa v Chile:

@MiketheSnow yeah sure ok mate

They definitely don’t look all the same

Fiji would be home and hosed by now

Mapusua giving advice to the ref from the coaches box is the funniest shit I've seen so far this world cup.

Chile running some really good lines

Far better coached

@MiketheSnow yeah and running hard too eh. Halfback has brilliant distribution.

Chile exposed there

Hugely disappointing half from Samoa

Lucky to be going in to oranges with the lead

They don’t look match fit

Samoa 19-10 Chile
Halftime

Good contest though

That was a nice try. Finally.

That’s more like it

Samoa have woken up

Far more accurate with the basics

BP secured

Samoa 36-10 Chile
53 mins

Oh, there we go .. head contact.

Yellow for Chile's reserve hooker, under review.

ARs are not winning over any fans to the game. Sheesh there was nothing in that. AR determined to YC someone.

Bs card.

The Chilean hooker's yellow stays yellow.

So, players are getting carded now due to injury, not due to the actual actions.

This bunker system review is shambolic
Chilean review stays a yellow but ours was upgraded? Total BS

Enari's yellow also stays yellow. It's a pity they can't downgrade a yellow to a penalty, because that's what should have happened here.

@Stargazer Yes exactly. Like that idea. Downgrading completely.
Gardiner seemed intent on getting the player carded , like he needed his moment on camera.

Comical from Sopoaga there. Won't watch that replay..

Geez, another Chilean player yellow carded. It's now 13 v 14 on the field.

This has gotten way out of hand. I blame the officials.

Deserved it for the haircut alone.

@Victor-Meldrew Love the way he stomped off muttering to himself darkly in Spanish repeatedly hitting his forehead with the water bottle.

Good win for Samoa, but that was a very messy game.
