Wow! Thanks . I know very little about rugby so if "wow" sounds naïve forgive me.

Not at all! Biggest shock I've ever seen in the sport. Superb attitude from them to go for the jugular when the draw was virtually guaranteed.

Biggest rugby shock you ever saw? Thanks for putting it in context for me. I live 10 minutes walk from Twickenham stadium but I barely know a scrum from a line out and as for offside or penalties, it's all Greek to me. I watched the last 30 minutes of the Japan game though and it was very exciting. Maybe this tournament will make a convert of me.

Have to agree. There may have been bigger handicap starts that went on to win a game, but in terms of high level rugby that has to be the biggest shock ever.

anybody know what the best bookies odds on Japan were?
|

By:
Some half-wit on the BBC site was trying to compare the result with the biggest shocks in sport..
He/she/it came up with Wimbledon beating Liverpool in the FA Cup Final.. Shows what freaks post on there as I backed Wimbledon at 40/1 to win the FA Cup before round three and they were fifth in the League.. Japan were any price before the game..... Biggest shock in sport since Buster beat Mike Tyson... |
|
By:
much bigger than buster/tyson imo
|
|
By:
buster was 40/1
japan were 400/1 wimbledon were prob 6/1 before final sunderland 12s to beat leeds NOTHING is comparable to today |
|
By:
Australia were No OFFERS - 1.01 to beat Bangladesh in a one-day cricket match in 2005 at Cardiff. They were beaten.

Japan have jumped from 200s here to 400/1? Was 400/1 really available?
|

Sorry..."in the 200s"

my local team in Wales, Risca, with my brother-in-law playing beat the All Blacks in 1963.
|
|
By:
Well, actually, Risca beat Newbridge who beat Newport who beat the All Blacks .. all in 1963.
|
|
By:
Buster was bigger than 40/1..
Wimbledon would not have been 6/1 to win the FA Cup outright when they reached the final and were fifth in the League.. Japan were top priced at 70/1 to win at that Oirish firm of knockers and chancers.. |
|
By:
Would this be the equivalent of someone like Faroe Islands beating Germany in Football?
The odds would suggest so,But surely not? |
|
By:
Rising Sun were 1000 / 1 before kick off. There was no price on South Africa.
|
|
By:
They were not 1000/1
|
|
By:
japan apparently matched at 400 pre game...bookies therefore must have been 1/100 sa?
|

By:

Just before KO, there was nothing offered on SA, all the 1.01 had been hoovered up already. I can't remember what Japan were but they definitely traded at 400 (some 420) in-play.
