    I'm so sad. Better team won then.
    The whole game lacked sexiness.

      Plus I feel less pain than I might have expected. I listened to a BBC Sounds podcast earlier in the week where they were talking about what it would mean to the SA public for Kolisi to lift the trophy, and I thought that whilst I really want an England win, I'm able to live with the Boks as champions.

        Goes to show back to back performances are tough. We couldn’t back up our Irish win, and England had the same problem

        I think having an easy quarter and possibly semi is a massive help

        Our mistake was beating the Boks in the first game.

        Oh well, thems the breaks sometimes. They were excellent tonight.

        If you think that was your mistake you've learned nothing from your SF loss

          England and their arrogant coach celebrated beating the All Blacks like it was VE day. Hubris.

          Nemesis comes in the form of the Springboks.

          What a load of rubbish.

          Most of the English fans are great. I was thinking about some of the rubbish that has been in the UK media this week.

              The ABs would do well to ask the SA physio if she has a sister! (Who is also a physio of course)

                  Sorry if this has been covered but were the ABs the only team to beat the Boks in 2019?

                    Well done Boks, ruthless stuff tonight. A great final performance.

                    Commiserations to England, arguably the best team across the competition.

                    Look forward to the ABs playing you next year.

                          Karl Te Nana has been good value for the commentary team in this tournament. Would love to have him commentating the Super Rugby games.

                            England had one challenge - superbly met - in the lead up to the Final.

                            Easy ride and a week off until that point.

                                      Considering England, SA and NZ all lost a match I’m not sure how you reach that conclusion.
