This supposed assessment that pointed out 5 major errors that O'Keeffe made really boils down to one bad decision that he made, the Kwagga Smith turnover. The chargedown and the PSDT yellow card incidents should have been handled by the TMO, not O'Keeffe.

I think any other game, that Etzebeth slap gets called immediately, and reviewed at the least.

Enjoy!

What's the bets Zombie is the first song played if SA win? :-)

Early card for England. Players look a bit over hyped

walshb · 21-10-2023 06:59PM

Finally SA anthem over

thebaz · 21-10-2023 06:59PM

Not often I'm up for the Boks - tonight is one of them

walshb · 21-10-2023 07:00PM

Come on, Engerland!!!

TinyMuffin · 21-10-2023 07:01PM

South Africa by 15 points.

Lucy8080 · 21-10-2023 07:02PM

does the rain help England's chances?

clsmooth · 21-10-2023 07:03PM

Great start England.

standardg60 · 21-10-2023 07:04PM

Ooh clear lift by psdt there, is O'Keefe trying to give NZ an easy final?

thebaz · 21-10-2023 07:06PM

all England do is box kick - anti rugby anti rugby

If that's all they do it should be easy to counter. Rugby is rugby.

walshb · 21-10-2023 07:07PM

England look strong

clsmooth · 21-10-2023 07:09PM

England winning the kicking game so far. SA can’t keep kicking to Steward. He’s world class at that particular aspect of his game

TheRona · 21-10-2023 07:09PM

England playing the right tactics. Keep putting it up high towards their miniscule wingers, and play at the right end of the pitch.

SlickRic · 21-10-2023 07:12PM

O'Keeffe can't referee the breakdown or scrum.

robbiezero · 21-10-2023 07:12PM

Ref been told to make this a close one.

testtech05 · 21-10-2023 07:13PM

O Keefe seems to have taken last week's criticism on board and decided he's gonna go against SA this week.....

thebaz · 21-10-2023 07:13PM

Bad refeeirng , yet again - compare the first 10 minutes of this game to last week , horrible stuff

captbarnacles · 21-10-2023 07:14PM

Surely issue was cant pick up ball out of aruck?

davepatr07 · 21-10-2023 07:14PM

Poor call there by O Keeffe... you'd nearly think he wants England in the final so AB's have revenge for last WC (Joking). Thinking AB's have this WC.

FrancieBrady · 21-10-2023 07:14PM

England getting the exact start they need to win this

What's with it - the cynic in me says that the word went out to give NZ an edge in the first half of their recent games. And wouldn't it be good if there was a European side in the final too!!

SaoPaulo41 · 21-10-2023 07:17PM

Boks look a bit drained after last week

Podge_irl · 21-10-2023 07:17PM

I'd suggest leaving the conspiracy theories at home...

testtech05 · 21-10-2023 07:17PM

That 1st maul looked to be pulled down to me

Podge_irl · 21-10-2023 07:18PM

England doing wonderfully so far

TheRona · 21-10-2023 07:18PM

Steward looked like he was bunted over by a no-arms tackle there while SA were under advantage
