RWC Final: England v Springboks

Kirwan

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

Nemesis comes in the form of the Springboks.

What a load of rubbish.

Billy Tell

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

Biggest final win?

Think us against Frogs 35-12 in 99?

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.

Kirwan

Has Will_G popped in yet.

He wasn’t a dick when he did, let’s not be dicks for someone else’s win.

Ireland really threw a spanner in the works for us there

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

Kirwan

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

Toddy

@geebee I'm sure the Boks won't sleep because of that

That is a great comeback. Proper coach proper selection and SA back at the summit.
