    But if Eddie watched our SF he knows SA can be beaten. We should have.

    England can.

    England need to get tighter not looser.

    SA played within themselves and did enough to win against you. Always in control

    And yet we should have been going in to the last two minutes 19-16 ahead.

    England are better than Wales.

    Go back to basics. Pick & go. Commit and tire the Boks.

    Boks will give away penalties.

    Kick for territory.

    England win.

    It's not rocket science.

    Their pick and go looked good once they got in the other half , getting up that end of the field is key for them

        The way the All Blacks play is what the market wants to see. This is a dud product.

        We won a WC 8-7 so I wouldn’t go too far down that line. Rugby can be trench warfare and be exciting

        It wasn't exciting at all. Fucking sucked. I thought I was going to die

                          Boks nullifying the Pom midfield. Utterly dominating in that area in defence.

                                    Who is the defence coach for the Boks? They really have been dominant.
