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.

Rugby didn't deserve rain
Frustrated
No complaint with Barnes
SA deserved to win
We weren't sharp enough mentally@BerniesCorner said in RWC Final: All Blacks v Springboks:

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

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?

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.

@rustycruiser I don’t say it much, but that was 14 v 16, and we still should have won. Barnes want biased, he was jut bad, and I backed him as the ref when he was appointed.
My reply would be the one try was from a ball that went forward. But the cards and the reviews were shit
@rustycruiser it clearly went back and bounced forward, that is not a forward pass.

Still think DMac should have been earlier, and Taylor was a bit up and down. Thought Brodie went well though. Richie played well but over the last few years I've felt our 10s have been mostly a little passive/reactive. If only we had secured one more penatly/conversion.

You're clearly emotional and deluded if you think that was deliberate.

Despite not getting the rub of the calls, we could - and should - have won that if we'd been more accurate. So many loose passes and dropped balls killed us.
Not to mention two kicks at goal to get our noses in front.
Congratulations to the Boks and Big Pieter Steph - phenomenal game by him.
-
Barnes had a great game. Can’t really fault him tbh
-
It just occurred to me, Boks don't win their games they just make the other side lose.
But it seems to work for them so fair enough.
