People were talking about the Japenese fitness levels, look at South Africa, the size and fitness of them. All legal and above board.

Should Kolbe be penalised there? He dumped a guy over his shoulder, with no ability to control how he landed...

Other guy was the tackler so no.

Thought the same myself. What was the penalty given for??

is_that_so · 20-10-2019 11:59AM

Game over now!

BarryD2 · 20-10-2019 11:59AM

Japan kicking the ball noticeably more. That’s it now...

ScrubsfanChris · 20-10-2019 11:59AM

That was incredible

Danthemanhere · 20-10-2019 11:59AM

They just overpowered them.

Second player grabbing his scrumcap.

Euphoriasean · 20-10-2019 12:00PM

Super drive. SA have played to there strengths all second half.

Professor Genius · 20-10-2019 12:00PM

Faf makes Murray look like an aged schoolboy

thelad95 · 20-10-2019 12:00PM

This is exactly how we should have seen out the pool game against Japan

Jacovs · 20-10-2019 12:00PM

After 8 line outs and 8 mauls we get the try, from the halfway line.

thomond2006 · 20-10-2019 12:01PM

Joe Schmidt would be proud of this second half performance by South Africa. An exhibition of a suffocating display.

eagle eye · 20-10-2019 12:01PM

This could potentially turn into a high scoring game for SA before the end. Japan look out on their feet.

Busted flush.

Sayonara Japan. RSA on a real push here. Could be a painful loss. Probably not as bad as Ireland yesterday mind lol.

jr86 · 20-10-2019 12:03PM

Probably a hiding now

Not the most creative team, but certainly effective and efficient. Rassie has done a stellar job

Interesting one v Wales. Don't expect it to be pretty, and probably low scoring up the jumper stuff, but I reckon it'll be very tight

walshb · 20-10-2019 12:04PM

You know, an England-Wales final is not out of the question.

Noveight · 20-10-2019 12:05PM

Be a long 10 mins for them now.

Jacovs · 20-10-2019 12:05PM

Nearly lost it when I saw le Roux in that move.

kmart6 · 20-10-2019 12:05PM

Felix Jones, only Irishman left in the World Cup, who would have thought that a few months ago.

Guy:Incognito · 20-10-2019 12:05PM

The covering Japanese player could have made a tackle there but instead ran all the way up to him and tried to grab him round the shoulders. FFS. Schoolboy stuff.

One part of that equation has a possibility close to zero! Reckon we may be back to the first great match of this RWC.

kal7 · 20-10-2019 12:06PM

Do SA team not like Kolbe, maybe they can't pass off left hand.

20-10-2019 12:06PM

Putting things in context, Ireland would have beaten neither of the teams in the this match.
Been a great game and high tempo power, Ireland's slow position kicking would have been eaten up.

joseywhales · 20-10-2019 12:06PM

Jesus, I am going to have to watch Wales in a world cup final, kudos to Gatland, the master of the long game.

Hurrache · 20-10-2019 12:06PM

So only 1 competitive game out of the 4 quarter finals.

FrancieBrady · 20-10-2019 12:06PM

This could be a bit tragic.

Valiant attempt by Japan.

Squidgy Black · 20-10-2019 12:06PM

That had to be one of the worst cover tackles I've ever seen

ScrubsfanChris · 20-10-2019 12:06PM

Best thing Le Roux has done all day
