Scotland lost 37 - 10 to Canada according to the BBC website, Wales are losing 21 - 0 to Australia atm, and USA are beating Khazakstan 10 - 0 too.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ah, missed that all of those matches are on today as well
I'll update the first post,
Wales aren't doing too well, they get good field position then Australia just turn over the ruck and run back

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Australian loosehead and now scrumhalf in the bin,
Wales got a try before the first card, and were very much on the front foot in the 1min or so before the second - i smell a comeback!

 

[Amobokoboko]

I thought it would start only next week, good that you reminded us.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Despite being in the Australia half for all of the sinbin time Wales got no points (had a good opportunity for a lineout from a penalty but the FH missed the kick and it went out over the try line) - as soon as the Australia sinbinned players came back on Australia are right back up to the Welsh line, reckon a try is on the cards soon

 

[Shaggy]

Wow ... three yellow cards and a penalty try (could have been two) against Australia, and they still secure a bonus point win for four tries

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I thought that was going to be a second PT as well (when the ball was thrown out of play) -
Australia looked very good in the match. Wales looked decent, but were just outclassed by the Aussies

Hehe, i'll have to check her out ... looks like it will be an interesting pool (NZ, Australia, South Africa, Wales), with only the pool winner guaranteed of going through to the next round

New Zealand gave SA a bit of a spanking, a sign of things to come tomorrow?

Richie mccwaw slapping Burgers arse doesnt have the same effect upon me as the idea of 30 womenin shorts doing the same

Carla scored a hattrick of tries against South Africa

 

[Shaggy]

England are up 7-0 over Ireland ... France apparently beat Sweden, but I haven't found the score ... are it was 15-9

 

[Shaggy]

12-0 to England at half time ... England playing into the wind in the Second half

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Both teams with a couple of missed kicks (Ireland a pen, and England a pen and a conv)
Game still very much up for grabs

 

[Shaggy]

Amy Turner scores from a quick tap for England ... 17 nil with 57 minutes played

 

[diehardwithapanda]

England are being pretty sloppy.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Looking through the squads, there's four England players from the squad in my town, madness!

I'm interested to see how Canada do in the next round, same with USA (don't know whether they're that good or are Kazhak that bad) - seems like Sweden did alright for themselves as well, they're really a rugby power house, and seemed to hold on against France
