Really enjoyed that, so good to see the improvement in Georgia, as I said they're closing the gap on Italy massively.

Japan are having a right good go at SA unlucky to be going in 2 behind.

Amazing.  The reaction of the Georgian and Japanese players alone has already made this tournament a great spectacle.

Best upset ever in rugby history, and 100% deserved, that pool is interesting now and means finishing 1st in our pool might not be such a huge advantage as it looked.

Seriously down in the dumps when I got home after our game but watching that Japanese performance was a massive lift.  Really, really special stuff.

Absolutely, and I'm not even much of a rugby fan!

I would be if it was always that exciting!

Personally I find that rugby rarely falls to the depths that football can, maybe because there is always the physically to enjoy.  Equally these sort of upsets in rugby seem much less common so the sort rarely reaches the heights that football can.
