[QUOTE="fcukernaut, post: 144245"] I've watched every game start to finish so far in this world cup and I must say the [b]worst[/b] player in the whole tournament is the American openside flanker, Todd Clever. He is garbage. All he ever does is accumulate penalties when he's playing defence and lose possession, whether by kick or drop ball on offence. On top of that he complains constantly. As for the US, they certainly played some pretty decent defence again. Gaps all over the place but they closed them pretty quickly and Tonga never really took advantage of those, much like England didn't but Tonga had better hands and better execution. I think what the US is missing is dynamic back play. That's what's holding back Canada back and I think that's holding the USA back as well. Tonga had some good stretches in this game, but I will say I was shocked by their skills and their backplay. Very good. Normally it's just a bash 'em up 8 man rugby. [/QUOTE]
