            Similar to the Semi Final in 2019 in that respect.

                About time. Ref complaining about constant stream of medics coming onto the field. World Rugby needs to sort this cynical cheating shit for good

                Neither side minds though. Just boring.

                @booboo It confounds me how anyone thinks it’s entertaining. I know the rusted-ons love it it but the game increasingly resembles grid iron. Players too bulky. All about power. No poetry. No finesse

                      It's also dumb rugby from SA when chasing a 9 pt gap to reach the Final

                              This is the exception to the rule though. there were 4 great games last week - 2 all time great games.

                                  Even though some of the England kicking has been rushed and even desperate at times, they have kept the Boks out of their half. The Boks have really struggled to counter the kicking game.

                                          @His-Bobness England are doing exactly what they need to do to win. The surprise so far is that the Boks have no Plan B.
