The Iron Giant

Pollard is one of the most polarising out halves at a tier one team as regards ability.

Utterly solid and calmness personified kicking penalties and conversions but abysmal around the pitch either passing or kicking from hands.

If South Africa play like that and England play to their potential then this could easily be the most one-sided final of all time.

And we should have been in it... WE SHOULD BE THE ONES GETTING PUMPED BY ENGLAND NEXT WEEKEND GOD DAMMIT!

Sort of tense semi I enjoyed (as a neutral) tbh. Carbon copied each other’s scores and went to the wire

I honestly hope England hop the sh!t out of that bokke team for serving up that tripe...

And I think they will too.

England can match their power, play a game to keep the ball away from hard contact, and they have the backs to mezmerise those South African backs

Bookies:

England 5/8
South Africa 8/5

Keep reminding yourself that Ryle Nugent is no longer there

It will most definitely help overcome any other commentators voice EVER

That should be that. Think the right team won. I do believe South Africa can play better but they are just doing what they have to in knock out rugby.

I agree the right team won on that display, but I think Wales can also play better than that. It was just a nervy knock out kick and bash fest given the stakes.

At least one Irish lad might get a winners medal

At least one Irish man in the final at least.

"i don't know what South Africa are celebrating". A few morning shandies for EOS?

It worked out for SA, but their strategy was horrid to watch.

Surprised, to be saying this, but 'hon England!!
Really don't want SA to win playing this kind of muck.

ScrubsfanChris

Wales weren’t great and SA played down to the competition once again with a woeful gameplan.

schmoo2k

Can't see Wales beating NZ next week?

Rob Howley maybe?

Hopefully Kolbe is back too. At least South Africa will have have the pack to match England anyway.

Feel for a lot of the welsh players. They are absolute warriors but I just don’t think they are that good.

Pollard was unbelievable off the tee.

well done South Africa - the triumph of **** rugby - sums up a dreadful world cup - unless the Union make serious changes to the game , the game will struggle to get viewers and sponsorship - sadly awful stuff.

South Africa should have kicked the easy penalty points at the end. I'm sure there's some people out there that lost bets as a result. Likewise, there may be some that won as a result.
