    Yup, played their final a week early.

    Not to take away from SA, they've been fantastic. Ground them into the dust and then opened the game up - very AB like (when we are at our best that is)

      England and their arrogant coach celebrated beating the All Blacks like it was VE day. Hubris.

      Nemesis comes in the form of the Springboks.

        Is this the biggest losing margin in a RWC Final?

        If it is, there's no one more deserving of being the biggest loser than England

            Commiserations to the English fans on the forum who I must say are a great bunch.

                          But that is under threat

                              Well done Rassie and the Boks, showed us all how it’s done. You start up front and win that battle first.

                                      Rubbish. They won the games that counted. Worth world champions.

                                        Goes to show back to back performances are tough. We couldn’t back up our Irish win, and England had the same problem
