As MM said in another thread we now have two finalists who arguably shouldn't be there. There should have been a scrum at the end of the Scotland Aussie game and the Kiwis got away with a forward pass to go on and score a try.

Swings and roundabouts, these things tend to balance themselves out, personally I think the 2 best teams are in the final, but then I am prejudiced

Er, no they don't! Especially in a knock-out match. Especially in a semi-final!
They don't even balance themselves out over the course of a league season despite the romantic notions of various managers and commentators. A study of 'dodgy' decisions in the Premier League showed quite definitively that not only do these things not balance themselves out in a season but also over a much longer period. It's been a few years since I've looked at the data but at the time Arsenal had suffered horrendously over a five year period while other teams had not had a single incident.
Overall I think you're probably right that the better teams are in the final but there's no justice in them having been given a helping hand to get there!

Even if that try had been disallowed the Wallies would still have won.

Have this easy one for starting off the week:
-- Bonus CCC: 
No matter how you look at it, it's still a sheep! (3)
-- WSO FSOW:

Easy one. But you were the winner of FSOW not CCC. 
I ain't got no signature.

I have added the FSOW clue. But you could still have the same answer.

Wrong day - I can't do it tomorrow... 
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Well, everybody seems to be busy tomorrow. So, here is my guess
Is it EWE?
|
|
|
|

That's correct. You are up for tomorrow's FSOW, not CCC - just to be clear.

Aah that feels great, thank you

Well, okay. I'm happy with FSOW. Have never got to win CCC though

Surely it's SIS, two sheep mutually related? If it's EWE the arrow should only go one way indicating parent/child. And you're supposed to be a coder? I don't know what things are coming to!

I originally made the CCC clue (ok, not made but recollected solving it long time ago) and wanted the FSOW to have the same answer. I know that was a poor choice to represent the palindrome.
But then again, if "1223344546" is "Bookkeeper"[^] and "1234567" is "Plumber"[^], then this one is not that bad, is it?

2 and a half hour early, i didn'T have a chance
Rules for the FOSW ![ ^]
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");

Flipper!
(But...I thought yesterday would be a walkover, so I clearly know very little about the game)
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Strangely I find myself rooting for the Pumas, even though they are obviously outclassed.

Not looking forward to next weekends results. Should be a good match if the Wallabies can bring their A game!
