Hoping for a great game - come on England!
Strong start by England but Christ Farrell is annoying. Another talkback and the ref will penalize him
Impressive stuff England.
Farrell needs to stfu
Farrell is a moron
And right on cue he costs a 10 m penalty
Ah leave him alone. 9 points on the board!

Well, that was unexpected. Long way to go but a genuinely decent first half from England

light years from the 2 wonderful running games of last week but you do what you're good at and turn it into a war of attrition.
South Africa kicking is club level tonight. English forwards winning the game for them.
Line out throw ins - head in hands
SA coach pressing the panic button taking Etzebeth off
These two are making it look an ugly game, that’s for sure.
Faz isn’t all bad.

BREAKING NEWS
15 real international standard rugby players steal England's kit hamper and are believed to be masquerading as the usually abysmal bunch.
I say this as someone who would prefer anyone but England to win, but what a great drop goal!
15

South Africa look all at sea, it’s all over their faces that they’re potentially on the way out.
Honestly not taking anything away from the great physical play of England but this is the worst performance I’ve seen from a world number 1. They are making so many unforced errors and the kicking has been brutal. I don’t see them beating England - they look toothless
Mate, 15 minutes left!

Well exciting end; tough luck on England, but still defied all expectations.
That aged well

Well, what an exciting game at the end. SA noses in front at the end, feel for the England players.
Never looked like happening. I’d say it was a choke from England tbh. Boks were awful. Sad to see pushing and shoving after game over.That aged well

Thought England should have got a pen at the end
Gutted. Thought England deserved it on the night, but it probably leaves a better quality final on offer next week.
Always thought the Boks would steal it, but fair play to England they had a game plan.
Terrible SA performance but still enough to win in the end.
It’s a shame that last weekend’s Paris matches weren’t the semis and we had to endure this dip in quality, but now to the final the competition deserves.
Choke? I don't think so. More that Genge and Sinckler didn't have enough at scrum time.

Honestly don't think England could have done any more and thought they were harshly penalised last 20 in the scrums.
Best result for rugby.
The final will be better game for RSA winning.
England dragged the RSA to their level. Wasn’t a great game at all with the excitement generated simply by the close margin in score lines throughout.
Roll on next week to get back to exciting rugby.

SA are going to need to come up with a similar game plan to 4 years ago, where they took apart England, to overcome NZ who seem to have come good at the right time.
Should be a good game hopefully, the two sides being no strangers to each other due to the Rugby Championship.
England need to stuff the Argentinians, thank you please!
Such a silly post! Good one.

Always makes me laugh the whole “dragged down to their level” comment, which shows a fundamental lack of understanding of the game. If you can’t appreciate the fight on display for 60 minutes against the world champions then you’re no rugby fan.
I’d say it’s accurate. Tonight was ugly attritional and frankly horrible to watch as a spectacle. I would honestly expect SA v NZ to be a better game to watch than Eng v NZ. There was plenty of skill in the forwards but it’s a 15 man game and the backs might as well have stayed at home.Such a silly post! Good one

The Scots never have a game plan.

If you thought that was devoid of watchable incident, I once stood through a 0–0 draw played in dry conditions.
Yes, great opportunity to stick it to the English!
Sincere apologies if this isnt you but....
that's the kind of analysis you get from someone that doesn't really follow team sports regularly and certainly someone's that's never played!

Hey guys
Dry your eyes. England are out. Scotland are out. The difference isn’t that great. It’s nothing to do with nationalities as suggested here. It’s all to do with getting beaten by better teams.
England didn’t get further than expected once the draw was made.
Scotland didn’t get further than expected once the draw was made.
If you’re looking for exciting open rugby, simply do not watch England. They are not that kind of team.
Chin up guys. Failure again for England - just as the Scotland team were.
Slainte
Jim.
Anything to make you fell better. Least we have won it.
You didn’t tonight though did you?
PS fell better?????? Do you mean feel better if in English??
Well at least England put some pride into the British teams, Scotland had an abject tournament and England showed form is temporary, class is permanent.
Perhaps Scotland can learn a thing or 2 from its bigger and better brother down south?
Indeed.
England the following
World Cup Winners 1966. football
World Cup Winners 2003 Rugby Union
World Cup Winners 2019 50 over Cricket
SCOTLAND IN ALL ABOVE COMPETITIONS
World Cup Winners. football Not a Chance
World Cup Winners Rugby Union Never
World Cup Winners 50 over Cricket No way
Well I thought England would put in a performance this evening (hoped) and they did.
Rugby is a 15 player game but it’s the 8 up front that win it. This was always going to be both packs going at it, with the backs standing around getting cold. For once England’s kicking was accurate, it’s almost as if 4 years hoofing practice had finally paid off.
I am sad that they are out, sad that Sinckler got dicked at the set piece again (I really like the guy) but the team put in a shift and exceeded the expectations of most. It was the majority of the teams last game in an England shirt and to go out on a performance like that is nothing to be ashamed about. Well played
