Wow! Great possession from England and some brutal front line play! More like it?

Amazing SA defence too!

Does he want to give SA any more slack? Cynical stuff.

The fear in Australia is that if South Africa it'll be a 3 point fest like the other two finals the Boks have been involved in.

Ours backs have been beyond horrendous. They need to get a bloody grip and get their heads in the game.

There's nothing subtle about SA at scrumtime - get the ball to Vermuelen's feet, then push.

Amazing how many teams in this world cup have pulled out world-beater performances and looked great, then looked terrible in the next game.
It’s like watching a totally different. Unreal. Poor discipline. Poor execution. SA have been ok but it is England that gift wrapping this win for them.

Ya. We knew it would be the most open World Cup for a very long time. I just wasn’t expecting everyone to be so shit

The top end of Rugby is very even, a player or two out of it and you are in trouble.

You would have to be on crack to think these penalties are just.

That said, England haven’t played well in possession.

SA only looking dangerous because England have been making silly mistakes under the ball. Which in fairness would have been SA’s plan all along. If England can tidy that up they’ve looked better in open play.

This will be an absolutely gutting final to lose. We don’t really have many cards to play in the front row either with Sinckler going off.
