Rugby union - Autumn Internationals: week 3 review

Gringo [Edit] [Delete] 09:49, 26 November '12

Sooooooooo

Ireland thump a tired looking Argentina. Some good tries from the men in Green

Scotland lose to Tonga - not sure why anyone is surprised, the only country in the world in a worse state rugby-wise than Wales right now

England continue their "losing by tiny margins" thread against the big three. Last week refusing to take their kicks cost them. This week, taking the three with 90 seconds left cost them. Tuilagi continues to be the worlds worst passing centre. Boy has talent but needs to learn to pass the ball

Wales restore some pride after being schooled in the arts (both fair and foul) of playing rugby at the highest level. 17 missed tackles in the first half is shocking. Although, Andrew Hore should have been warming the bench for 79.5 minutes after his assault of Bradley Davies. Ref and assistants both missed it, 72,500 other people saw it repeated over and over again on te big screens. Yet nothing was done. Straight red without doubt. Why wasn't the 4th official stepping in?

Australia scrape past Italy. Probably means they'll turn up again next weekend, put 30 points on Wales

France just get past Samoa: Samoa have really stepped up this Autumn. Deserve to be in the top 8

Oh and if wales lose at the weekend, they drop to 9th and the 3rd tier of seeds for teh 2015 world cup. Possible group with NZ and England
