That's what I thought, either with his hand or stomach.
Thought it was a strip though, so should have been a penalty and a chance for the draw.

In fact if you looked closely the ref had a massive smirk on his face when he passed it upstairs as if to say 'I bet you don't enjoy this'.

| The video ref got nothing wrong at all, he even give tonga a benefit of the doubt TRY!!!... BOOOOOM there goes Jean user name he will be to embarrassed to show up for a few months, is it Damo he seems to never be on anymore?
WELL DONE SCOTLAND!
tonga not all what there cracked up to be take Sika Manu and Taumalolo out of that squad and there close to toothless.
for give the spelling mistakes;
1.FIshai is a Winger
2.daniel topou is solid and good meter maker
3.george tafou is a winger playing
4.Konard hurrell needs time on the ball or put 1 on 1
5.feki don't understand the wrap on the guy personally
6&7 have no idea who they are but not as good as brough or wallace
8.brent kite is good but not a powerhouse
9.again no idea some reserve grader i guess, kicking game was terrible
10. fuifui small minutes and a lazy defender but causes a mess when running
11.Taumalolo awesome player can't believe he was in the reserve grade this season at NQC
12.sika manu awesome
13. willie Manu dont get the wraps on him either
and the whole bench was full of big forwards but not enough workers.

Agreed he was massive...
Danny brough needs to take the 2 more he had 3 easy penalties and tonga defended and scored 2 trys of them.

| The Scotish winger, Hurst, gets my full forgiveness for his earlier cock-up by making a great tackle on Hurrell late on.

46042.jpg [quote="Bonzo":23qz4bj5]Corrected.
Incidentally, an exclamation mark ends a sentence and does not require a full stop. The first letter of the next word begins a new sentence and should therefore be capitalised. [i:23qz4bj5]Who needs flankers[/i:23qz4bj5]' grammar was actually correct.
HTH.

| Who was the Tonga hooker? He was awful. Tonga would have won easily if he could pass to his left. Tupou only touched the ball 3 or 4 times near the Scotland line and had one try disallowed and set up another try.
Far too slow at the play of the ball.

| Best team on the night (barely) won.
Tonga could have won had they had more experienced halves. Foster has talent but he is young and made bad decisions. Too often he tried to break the line himself when should have spread the ball to Tonga's brilliant second rowers and outside backs when there were opportunities. Also Tongan hooker's kicking was poor. Finally, Fisi'iahi made two big blunders.
If the above mentioned can rectify their mistakes, and especially the halves can improve their games, Tonga can still qualify for the QFs. But they have to beat Italy, which won't be easy.
Expect Tonga to beat Cook Islands.
Expect Italy to beat Scotland?
Tonga vs Italy will be awesome. If Tonga win then for and against will matter.

wow thats a massive change of sensationalism to realism well done.
Scotland have just proved they can handle bigger packs so they can give Italy a game and possibly win. Not seen the Cook Islands and tonight has shown anything can happen.

50/50 but I think he tried to flick it back more than a strip. Still Scotland slighter better over full game

47035_1386433761.gif We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

| I have to say some great scorelines.
This is what we needed more than anything. Competitive games.
I don't care if the groups have been manufactured or not. These scorelines will keep the fans coming back for more.

| Just shows you having two class half backs and some good destination and spirit can over come the better side on paper. Great World Cup so far
