I feel hollow inside, similar to after the 3rd BIL test. Fuck me, are England an unlikable team

African Monkey

Well done TMO you prick.

Robbery if ever I've seen one. Well done Samoa, yes We'll go back into oblivion until the next world cup because world rugby doesn't give a shit about tier 2 nations , but you sure showed how good you can be. The real winners today.

MajorStokes

Yeah fuck you England how dare you play to the ref and try and win the game.

Some of you guys are completely unhinged.

It was right there for Samoa to win it, but that dropped ball 5m out cost them.

The reffing overall was poor. Thought in the first half Samoa were getting a lot of leeway at the ruck. Then a number of calls (and non-calls) went England’s way in the second 40.

Sopoaga superb game.

African Monkey

@KiwiPie Nah its only Samoa,move on, similar to the disallowed try to Paia'aua.

Didn't want a minnow getting too far ahead.

Just watching the highlights. That first England penalty for a “check” on Farrel on the chip through was a joke. Are you supposed to actively get out of the attackers way now so they can score??

voodoo

England disallowed try for forward pass, get awarded a penalty instead - I rewound 5 times and couldn’t se what for? Maybe the highlights missed it?

voodoo

Jeez, I know Samoa were a man down, but you can’t really whinge about the ref when you concede a try like that to lose

Sounds like you need to change your name back to MajorPom.

That one did not seem to be evenly officiated. ??

Sopoaga superb game.

One of his missed kicks for touch was crucial in helping England get points. That first easy missed penalty would have helped too.

But certainly the rest of his game was far superior to Leali'ifano.

Suggestion that I would support England over Samoa is peak unhinged.

I just don’t get the fuck England etc as that seems pathetic.

If you don’t get it that I’m wondering if you are actually English tbh 😛

(Didn’t watch the game myself, just saying…)

Shame Samoa butchered that breakaway in the last minute, that would've been a superb ending to the game.

Weird to imply I made it up when you don't know me at all.

If you fancy coming round to deal with the full blown tantrum when I told him he can't watch the Ireland game feel free.

Want to imply I can just come around when you don't know me at all.

I don't think my brain could handle the theology lesson he'd give me, but thanks anyway.

@mooshld said in RWC Week 5: England v Samoa:

My 9 year old just got up and said fuck England and fuck this ref. In front of his grandmother. Then stormed up stairs saying yeah yeah I know time out but seriously fuck both of them. Hard to punish him when that's pretty accurate.

Sounds like he needs a Grumpy Young Man thread?

Maybe I'm not pommy enough to notice all the fuck England stuff.... isn't it more fuck the ref? There is some other posters that get sensitive about the crusaders like that too eh

But New Zealand hasn't known how to play to the ref for years so how can we appreciate it done so well by another team?!

TBH, this place has always been fuck England (and rightly so), why would now be any different?

I'm not sure if that's 100% accurate, there seems to be a lot of AFL "fans" in this place ...

We were out last night and didn’t get to see the game and won’t bother today. The outcome was just so predictable. We are a shit show under Borthwick.

booboo

Have a bit of time for Ross Tucker ... like him though am not sure how you measure this ...

This is a picture of a man about to be fucked up the arse by his TMO, and knows there is no lube left ...

Anyone seen a clip of Samoan yellow card? Heard Faz was complaining about a tackle with the shoulder.
