I was getting the same thing when I tried to start watching on Virgin Media Player at half time. Kept trying on a few different browsers and few different devices and eventually got on. Literally 50+ 'Service Unavailable' messages before I got connected. All I'm thinking is if it's like this now, when you wouldn't expect their servers to be under too much pressure, what's it going to be like at 8PM?

There is min of about 6 officials for most pro games. Ref, 2 ARs, 4th, 5th official, 6th official so will be another official able to step up if required

These are two awful teams.

Whoever wins our QF is absolutely going to be in the final.

More atmosphere at the cinema.

Its like a Saturday at a 7's tournament.

fitz · 14-10-2023 05:24PM

All that from territory given up by a very very soft penalty.

KH25 · 14-10-2023 05:24PM

Argentina are their own worst enemies. Awful defence.

sligeach · 14-10-2023 05:25PM

That try was sooooo easy for Wales. Poor from Argentina.

Shehal · 14-10-2023 05:25PM

I am still confident enough of the final result but at least Argentina have made this competitive. Fustrating that the try came from an incredibly soft penalty Dickson gave to Wales, if Argentina pull this off they are going to have to do it against 16 men it seems.

That's a trait in this competition and must be hugely disillusioning for an underdog team

scudzilla · 14-10-2023 05:27PM

Shite performance from us (Wales), seen under 18s teams with more composure.

Ireland/All Blacks will destroy us if we get through, and I mean by at least 30, imagine losing a WC SF by 30

Jacovs · 14-10-2023 05:27PM

C'mon the pumas.

fitz · 14-10-2023 05:27PM

That should be a card against LRZ, pulled the player down in the air.

My Virgin stream is still down - absolutly patetic - biggest night of Sport and they can not do it right.

Keep trying. Once you get connected it seems to be good quality and no drop outs.

Virgin has acknowledged there's a problem on their Twitter feed and report they have technicians working on it. Hopefully it will work smoothly this evening.

What do you expect when they won't even pay for hd on saorview.

MaddChris · 14-10-2023 05:33PM

Red card

Just handed Wales the win.

You using the app or browser? I just checked the app as I was using it to cast last week's game to the TV and it was solid. Just checked there and got a steam instantly.

KH25 · 14-10-2023 05:34PM

That’s a card and this one will absolutely be given.

Clegg · 14-10-2023 05:34PM

Card coming for Argentina here.

Looks like there was a hit to the head at a ruck. I think he was aiming for the other Wales player, but caught the second one instead.

Yeh disappointing, well that's a surprise

fitz · 14-10-2023 05:34PM

Pumas get to the 5m line, and another penalty from Wales. Instead of blowing it up and giving the card, now we've got this situation.

KH25 · 14-10-2023 05:34PM

Sweet Jesus, he’s calling no foul play.

MaddChris · 14-10-2023 05:34PM

Ref goes against Wales? I'm doing the lotto tonight.

Edit: I completely agree with the call BTW

lawrencesummers · 14-10-2023 05:35PM

This could be red.

Clegg · 14-10-2023 05:35PM

Interesting call from the referee. It's all technically correct at least

Hurrache · 14-10-2023 05:35PM

No foul play? This is mad, never have expected him to decide that.

KH25 · 14-10-2023 05:35PM

That is baffling. Maybe you could call yellow instead of red but it’s still reckless.

SaoPaulo41 · 14-10-2023 05:35PM

Unbloodybelievable

TheRona · 14-10-2023 05:36PM

Rugby muddying the waters even further. That's insane.
