Thinking they stood a chance in front of 70,000 fans, Japan showed up to this match without their giant killing harpoons and got stomped all over by who now seems to be their biggest arch nemesis, good ‘ol Timmy Cahill… didn’t they learn anything from Godzilla!? When asked about his scoring record against Nippon, this is all he could muster:
I’d just like to thank the crowd, the lads, a great turnout in Melbourne, I’m so proud to be here, so proud to play tonight so I think the credit just goes to the crowd, you were brilliant… This is a step forward for us, it’s great to finish top of the group.”
Weird response, but given the events of the last week… justified I guess. Besides, the Japaneses are into weird shit, so eh, whatever. Right about now though, the Japs should be thinking about which way the blade is going to turn in their abdomen… I’m not saying that they should honor their ancient tradition of Seppuku, but someone should step up to the plate!
