Hungover as sin, sorry it's late. But what a round 2 we have. I'm predicting a 3-3 again this week. With a NZ, SA, and Arg wins, but tight margins in them all. Anyone else brave enough to call some wins? As always, predictions, reactions, and shitposts all appreciated, and enjoy your rugby!

Strange games this weekend. Don't feel much of a contest with any.

Hope australia and France is good.

Fiji might be an upset. Would borthwick make it to the end of the tournament in that case?

Hope Wales turn up for the first time in two years, maybe but I don't expect it.

Missed most the matches sadly myself. But watching Wales live now. And score says they are in it!

How was it?

I got chucked out of the pub and the timezone meant it was so late I just went to bed.

Argentina showed up Wales imo. Physicality was lacking from about 55. Good first half!

:(

Wales still showing improvements or just showing that lack the quality players they used to have and this is them for a while?
