Calling off a game without a replay in a World Cup

Big_Dan_Campbell · October 9, 2019, 5:25pm

Sporting integrity out the window.

how’s that fair that a team that finishes second gets a huge advantage?

Big_Dan_Campbell · October 9, 2019, 5:52pm

Just saw one of Scotland’s tries on rte news. If there isnt a match fixing claim into it then it is idle

Link please mate

gilgamboa · October 9, 2019, 6:19pm

Its a dead rubber they are both through

gilgamboa · October 9, 2019, 6:20pm

We would id say. If we recovered from the troubles, and the famine and the celtic tiger crash id say this would be a walk in the park.

You should have thrown in the euros

gilgamboa · October 9, 2019, 6:25pm

Who gave a fuck about that ffs

How can there be sporting fairness when the last group matches, sorry pool matches, don’t kick off at the same time. Gives certain teams huge advantages in knowing what they need to progress.

And teams possibly being eliminated by the weather or advancing by not even playing all their scheduled matches. Mother of God, where do you start with that one.

Why are you asking me?

anon78624367 · October 9, 2019, 6:35pm

Sorry, I forgot you were an ignorant cunt

Wow some scoop for the Daily Mail.

anon7035031 · October 9, 2019, 7:04pm

Surely you know the answer already (you dumb fuck), it makes no sense like any aspect of the competition.

anon78624367 · October 9, 2019, 7:05pm

You’ve just replied to yourself there

anon7035031 · October 9, 2019, 7:06pm

I’m aware of that, I didn’t want to offend you.

anon78624367 · October 9, 2019, 7:07pm

So you respond to rhetorical questions and then to yourself.

As you were

ChairmanDan · October 9, 2019, 7:08pm

Of course there’ll be fairness and sporting integrity. This is rugby, not scummy soccer.

iron_mike · October 9, 2019, 7:45pm

Tbh it’s actually irrelevant. All groups bar group a are done and dusted with the only question to be answered is who finishes first and second. Even group is clear in so far as both Ireland Japan know a win puts them through.
