Super and very attritional test match. Unlucky SA, Pool B will be very interesting next year. Apsolute shame that SA, NZ, Fra and Ire have to face off and two of these teams gone after quarter finals....

Just watching replay. What the holy hell are the Irish wearing? Looks like a shitty Super Rugby jersey.

They are an abomination. Whoever came up with that design and colour should be sacked.

Fark me.
I love passion from players, but can we stop this ya-boo sucks, in-yer-face gloating when a team wins a penalty? It's a fucking blight on the game.
Maro Itoje started it. Now half the Test players seem to do it. Gloating is an insult to the finest traditions of the game.
Penalise the fuckwits. It has no place in the game. Why a team as good as Ireland feels the need to engage in this sort of shit is beyond me.
They are the biggest arseholes in World Rugby these days.
Being beaten on a regular basis would make you very bitter I guess...it's not your fault.
Its growing consensus.

45 kicks in play and 22 penalties.
Reckon I'll skip the replay.

The worst part is it was highly predictable given how these two teams play.

Congrats to Ireland
Brutal game. Our scrums lineouts and kicking cost us in the end. Thought ref Amashukeli was ok and there were errors both ways not just the forward pass. Etzebeth charging around looking for work after 80 mins still defies belief. Peter OMahony Porter Furlong GibsonPark and co just ground it out and truthfully we didn’t deserve a win. Farrell and OConnell should be stoked but Nienaber and Erasmus are going to have to tighten up quite a few things before France… -
Commiserations to South Africa - don't know how you lost that test. Inept referee, multiple forward passes, fake injuries, time-wasting, kicks over time, not nice singing/unfriendly crowd, terrible fans, not enough forecast rain, poor kicker. Won't get past quarterfinals again.

Bok goalkicking may have been the decisive factor.

How many kicks did they miss? Sexton missed 7 points.

Boks missed two conversions and a penalty, but five of those missed points were 85% ones.

Just saw clip which showed Hansen try came from an illegal kick through ruck by Keenan.
Georgian tryo was looking right at ruck and missed it.
