Not sure after that red card Canada will get much out of this!! I feel for them now but South Africa need to be ruthless. The All Blacks would be. Shocking pass for that last try mind you.

Well that second half was slightly anti climatic. Thought South Africa were going to run through Canada like a dose of salts. Foot off gas and Canada managed to save a bit of face. Have a feeling that All Blacks would have been more ruthless, but a win is a win.

I for one I’m hoping but not necessarily predicting a win over Argentina by the US of A, because of the short turnaround for the Eagles but they might be very fired up for this game.

Canada now have a MLR team so if their unions invest wisely they will be more competitive next World Cup.

I'd like to see what colour card would have been brandished if it was a Fijian who made that tackle

Damn Wales winning that game, calls are now being made to include Fiji in a Rugby Championship, something clearly needs to be done about giving Fiji (and Japan) more Tier 1 fixtures because I would consider them Tier 1 rugby nations.

Starting to look like Scotland will be the first country ever eliminated from a World Cup by a Typhoon.

Get that but think they would be better off going down the route of the Jaguares/Pumas first

I'm glad Wales won,much prefer Oz than them! Have Oz beaten us or even got close to since the 2015 RWC?

Sunwolves exiting Super Rugby in my view is a perfect opportunity to include Fijian Drua in a new Pacific/Oceanic competition.
