Aw novice for NZ! lol[/b]

Yep...South Africa are gonna run circles around NZ....unless the kiwis outmuscle them....I doubt it.

GO KENYA!

 

[Gay-Guy]

The two giant killers face off...Kenya vs Wales...no score so far after 3 and a half minutes...very tight defence both times...Kenya held up over the line.

 

[Gay-Guy]

Kenya score first!!!! Gee the defence of both teams is really good...no wonder they beat South Africa and NZ. Conversion unsuccessful.
5-0 Kenya.

Haltime....very tense indeed. Both teams deserve to be in the cup comp for sure. Seriously desperate defence. Kenya had a few more chances to score but the Welsh were amazing keeping them out. Brew for Wales is very strong in the tackle.

 

[Gay-Guy]

Kenya score from the kickoff...lucky bounce and the Kenyan guy sprints 50 metres to score under the post.
Kenya 12-0.

Quite unfortunate for Wales the bounce went the wrong way for them.

 

[Gay-Guy]

Wales score through a great dummy from Thomas.

Kenya 12-7 Wales.

Defence was fantastic both sides...just a moment of brilliance from Thomas. Wales are trying to play possession at the ruck strategy rather than trying to outflank.

 

[Gay-Guy]

Beautiful passing from Kenya! Just losing the ball with the line beckoning.....2 minutes to go.

OMG! Brilliant chip kick by the Kenyans....but dead in goal.

1 minute to go.

Wales attacking...up to halfway.

Wales into Kenyan half

Time into extra time.

Scrum in extra time....Kenya ball still 12-7 to Kenya

Ball is out...Kenya are in the semis!!!!!!!!

Wales not happy..controversy in the final seconds with Kenya not releasing the tackle player...Wales saying it should have been a penalty to them and not a scrum to Kenya.

 

[Sir Speedy]

I suddenly hate Kenya with every fibre of my being.

 

[Gay-Guy]

Fiji vs England

Well Fiji score straight away....might be one of those games.

Conversion unsuccessful.

Fiji 5-0

England try and get out of their half from the restart....turnover afetr 20 metres of going nowhere....straight to the Fijian winger who fakes his opposite with an in and out and leaves him on the ground to score untouched.

Fiji 10-0

 

[Gay-Guy]

The fijian guy in the English team does a kick and chase from Englands own half after Fiji make their first mistake...he retrieves it and offlaods in the tackle for the English to score....Gollings cannot convert.

Fiji 10-5 Eng.

 

[Gay-Guy]

England are looking better now...holding possession.

Attacking the Fijian line.

Gollings is through and goes for the line...he is under the post...OMG he gets the ball KNOCKED out of his hand...no try!

England get the ball from the restart and immediately go down the sideline...tackled into touch.

Halftime

Fiji 10-5 Eng.

 

[Gay-Guy]

Second half.

Fiji all out attacking the English line...10 metres away.

Great defence by England..turnover...penalty to England. England look like they changed their defensive line gameplan

Another penalty aganst Fiji....England up to halfway. The fijian guy for England gets down the sideline and passes it back to Vickerman. TRY to England...conversion good...12-7 to England.

 

[Gay-Guy]

4 minutes to play...scrum to Fiji in their half....long way to go upfield. England get the free kick from the scrum!

BEAUTIFUL set piece from the English at the scrum....Phillips gets through the line...one on one with the last Fijian guy...chip and chase,,,try for England! That move was straight out of the playbook...amazing!

England 19-10 Fiji.

Fiji look tired...no possesion for 4 minutes flat.

 

[Gay-Guy]

The fijian guy in the English team leaps high from the kickoff...taps it bacl to Gollings who goes through a half gap...pass after pass...a few offloads..England score again.

Eng 26-10 Fij.

Looks like it may all be over for Fiji with 30 seconds left.

Gollings from HALWAY chips from the ruck...chases his own kick.....kicks again...scores in the corner...AMAZING TRY!

Final score Eng 31-10 Fij.

 

[Gay-Guy]

Argentina vs USA.

USA score first under the post...great cut move to put him under the post.

Conversion good. 7-0 to USA.

Argentina is playing possession ruck dominance sevens.

60 metres of tackle after tackle Argentina responds with a try.

Argentina miss the conversion.

USa 7-5 Arg.

 

[Gay-Guy]

Second half. Argetina score....great chase after the ball.

Arg 17-7 USA

 

[Gay-Guy]

Final score

ARG 24-14 USA

Argentina really look good. USA were totally outclassed in the second half. They could not get any leeway at all against the Argies in the second half...Argentina started to totally swarm the US attack.

A bit of argy bargy at the end.

 

[Gay-Guy]

Now for the two heavyweights......meeting in the quarter finals. This is gonna be a very big game indeed!

NZ vs SA

 

[Gay-Guy]

Wow both teams are really defending well.

First half....NO SCORE!

 

[Gay-Guy]

A try to NZ right on the death!!!!!!!

Kickoff seconds remaining

NZ player sent off...SA player comes back on.

Cama kicks it out!

NZ win 7-0...what a game that was worthy of a final!!!!!
