    Japan have just beaten the Springboks with a try three minutes in to injury time. Took a scrum rather than going for the penalty at 32-29 down....amazing decision... after God knows how many phases went over in the corner.
    Even if you've no interest in rugby watch the highlights.

    I can't believe what I've seen today. I had Tonga and South Africa on separate accumulators. I thought I was **** at football betting.

    Mario, I've watched Rugby all my life, I have never seen anything like that. I was screaming for them to take the pen. and draw....but to run it with time up ...and then score the winner is incredible.

    Does my heart good to see moments like that, I was screaming for them to go for the try and the win, couldn't believe they did though, I was dancing around the room when they finally made it over the line. One of the best games of international rugby union I've ever seen. Fortune favoured the brave.

    Very brave decision not to take the penalty option. A great game.

    I'm still in shock.

    In football terms that's like San Marino turning Brazil over.

    What an atmosphere at Twickers again. France v Italy. Great pre-game show they put on too. Rugby Union have nailed it.
