    Extremely boring game. I don't care you can win games playing like this. I find it ugly rugby and I'm not entertained.

        Plan A isn’t working for the Boks.

        They need to switch to Plan B and speed the game up.

            Different style of game - conditions shit.

            Screw the neutrals, not all games can be QF 2 and 4.

              @Dodge it is more interesting because the game is in the balance. But blow me the quality is dire. Steward has been immense under the high ball. Mom so far for me

                World Cups are about different styles. I’m enjoying this on its own terms.

                  England are going to win this. Then fizzle in the final.

                      SA should show a bit of ambition in the second half. If they carry on like this they are playing into England's hands. They are getting dragged into a shit fight and their superior skill is being wasted.

                      It does look like SA are exhausted from last week.

                        Pretty hard to speed up a game they are trying to slow down.

                              The scoreboard is keeping things interesting, and if I had a team in this I'd be on the edge of my seat.
                              But from a neutral point of view, it is about everything that is wrong with rugby in one game.

                                @sparky from who? Their only attack minded player (Am) who can spark something that isn’t a wing is not in the Matchday 23. SA need to get their wings involved more at the v least

                                      First team to score a try is gonna take this I reckon.

                                      Agree. This could be a one try game.

                                      Try less very real sitch tho. SA give up penalty every time England attack and they will always take the 3.
