Japan very effectively blocking the SA runners chasing the high balls.

So you are all calling that a red card. I'm not so sure and the beast isn't a player with a bad history of that sort of stuff either.

He gave a card.

Mafi can do some real damage here... He's a very good player

Instant decision. Didn't need to consult.

I’ve watched a good amount of the matches this WC and that’s the most dangerous tackle I’ve seen so far.

You didn't see Italy v the bokke then...

I feel Wales are probably better suited to the structured style SA (likely) will bring. You regularly have the number of Ireland and England yet struggle with the likes of France and Australia which on paper would make no sense. I think you’ll be better set against South Africa if it is them

Mustve not seen the tip tackle red card in the SA vs Samoa game.

Didn’t see that match.

Where was the TMO ..... should have been in Barnes ear asking him to look again at that.

Barnes is a coward, plain and simple.

That yellow card was smoking he pulled it out so fast to avoid a debate and having to make a proper decision.

Disgrace.

Poor camera work showing too much from the camera above the pitch

That is extremely lucky for the saffers, if that was replayed in slow mo they would've deemed the point of contact to be head first.

Could have been.

One part of me is happy to see a ref being decisive, another part thinks it was worth another look

Brainless collective performance in parts from Wales today ..... fortunately evened up an individual brainless moment from France.

However we're still alive and next week is another day.

Yellow card. Lucky not to be red. Only marginally away from landing on his head.

Bollox, but fair.

Should’ve been red

Trouble here

Hopefully Japan get the invite to the Rugby Championship sooner rather than later. They have beaten two tier one teams this year and play an absolute brilliant style of Rugby.

FrancieBrady

Frantic and frenzied defence from Japan...don't think they will have the physicality to withstand this for 80

Guy:Incognito

Trying to just grab the ball off a player is a real kids move. They think they are tricking the coaches by making it look like they made an effort to stop him.

ScrubsfanChris

LeRoux very lucky there. Could have been very nasty.

sligeach

Unlucky there Japan.

Bok pack is going to show us how it’s done today.
