| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Can someone explain to me how Tomas Williams and Dillion Lewis are international Rugby players dear me, we're in dire need of more quality at Scrum Half, IO have my doubts about Rio Dyer as well, but he's still a youngster but he's got to be told to stop trying to be a crash ball centre. | ![](/images/avatars/9760.gif) |

Sadly, an Australia win. Get Fuji out if the race. Wakes should be able to lose to Aus if they go on to beat Georgia with BPs. I think. Sticks in my craw wanting them to win though😏 | ![](/images/avatars/8799.gif) |

Fiji by far the better side in the first half but needed to come away with points with the pressure in the last 5 minutes. Probably the worst Australian side I've seen since Brendan Moon was on the wing. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
