I hoped the French would win. The last thing I want is SA winning another RWC. Their fans and "journos" are already unbearable enough.
Dunno about their media, but I've generally found Saffa supporters pretty good

I think England might do a job on SA. Revenge for the final last time.

Ball is out but the Boks player was standing offside before he grabbed it.
BOK has spoiled a good performance with his last 10-15 minutes.
He’s been shit the whole game, is a terrible ref.
His first half was probably the best reffed half of the weekend.
I hate watching the Boks play when they go into their negative crap. Time for England to pull one out of the bag.

@Victor-Meldrew I think most Saffas would distance themselves from Keohane and the shit he spouts, but he is included in the SA 'media'

I can see Saffas intentionally knocking on and then driving our scrum 50m backwards to score over and over again

That was intense! nice to watch a game like that and not be involved. I feel for France but I'm also glad they are out.

@taniwharugby My only Saffa acquaintance calls Rassie a wankel .Don't think he's referring to the rotary internal combustion engine...so he has good taste

That shallow dropkick that went straight into touch was so stupid. 5 minutes to go, you go long.
I think they were worried about Pollard winding one up from 55m. Felt it was better to take that out the equation by going wide and shorter.

@Machpants said in RWC QF: France v South Africa:
Yeah, three major points. Can't catch high balls, rushed/inaccurate even on attack, and like Ireland out of ideas to close a close one
I hope WR look at the cheating fucking HIAs
Yeah, the HIAs today have Rassie's fingerprints all over them

Surely the WC chokers tag can never be applied to us now after this weekend of semi-finals ...
Gutted for France. But they didn't deserve it, the Boks did.
Amazing that Kolbe'e charge down was the difference.
Boks with an awesome backline is a scary prospect. Kolbe was unreal tonight

Well I thought in end SA deserved the win, and I a real Bok fan usually, but there was some blatant time wasting etc the ref couldn't stop as players went down etc. Do wonder how that waterboy was allowed on with instructions just before Eben's try though!
For France, they could of still won it, but have to remeber it's a team game, not just a Dupont game. He was absolutely almost crawling by end of game and coach didn't have the confidence (it seems) in other players to replace him, so I say, have a look in mirror coach (and take of those f***en glasses) so you can see whetre you went wrong!
