Is that the easiest MoTM ever?

Feels worst than 95.

Proud of the team. Scooter, Retallick, Ardie and the front row were outstanding.

True, and the backline were mostly good but lacked a bit of dynamism I felt and once again BB was up and down at 15 but at least he wasn't collision-shy.

If Wayne is the best ref in the world, we need to find better refs.
Oh and the ABs need to learn how to play to them.

But I'm overall not miserable, we maybe weren't the best team at the RWC and maybe neither were the Boks, but they were more consistent.

@booboo What’s more inspiring than a guy coming back from a broken neck?

Game was full of drama... Sky team whinging is cringy

[broughie]

Ok. Scott Robinson. We need revenge and I am hoping, with your guidance, that we smash SA in our next game. I have disliked them since 1976 and their cheating refs.

Rugby didn't deserve rain
Frustrated
No complaint with Barnes
SA deserved to win
We weren't sharp enough mentally

[Yeetyaah]

Well done Bokke. Our boys should hold their heads high after this campaign.

Hugely proud of that effort. Forwards huge. We played so much good rugby. Just couldn't get the points. Missed kicks a killer

They were. But bloody hard in those conditions. I personally would have gone for touch and set for dg. We were winning our lineout no worries.

Why was Sam Cane sent off but not Kolisi?

Because rugby union is a bullshit sport.

Big talking points re: officials.

Frizzel card was farcical - and he played well despite what the predictable SF detractors say.

Forearm to head from BOKs not even looked at.

Kolisi was red all day..
And they know it..

PSDT MOTM deservingly.

I really feel for Sam Cane but it was correct call. He also played well all tournament.

Frizzell is a grub, always has been. He knew what he was doing, the Bok must have reminded him of a chick.

To be honest, that was probably the biggest factor in the end.

Yup boks waiting for our stupid errors and decisions, and we gave them plenty unforced

[Tordah]

I think World Rugby should revert to earlier TMO protocols, make him shut his trap unless asked about something, these random interventions really kill the buzz. Especially disappointing if some things are looked at (because a player is down) and other things are not looked at (Sam Cane should probably have lied down and asked for a medic and Etzebeth would have been red carded).

You weren't watching?

[Joans Town Jones]

I'm sorry but go fuck yourselves officials. GO FUCK YOURSELVES. You fucked the game. Yeah JB could have won it but fuck off. You've made me sick. All the fucking crap we've copped about the QF, you wanna see some BS calls? You've just seen it. Wag your own shit.

To the ABs, I've been calling you out for your BS the last 4 years but you stood up today against some absolute horseshit. You were against 17 men at times. That fucking hurts.

[Stag]

@rustycruiser it clearly went back and bounced forward, that is not a forward pass.

[BerniesCorner]

@booboo ok what specifically

[ShitMcCaw]

Lads you beat us by playing an astonishingly perfect game that on balance every critic described as amazing. But the NH came back to bite you. SA are our boys now. Count your winning with a teaspoon.
