RWC SF: England v Springboks

[stodders]

This game reminds me of the Lions tour to SA.

Plan A isn’t working for the Boks.

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

Come on Borthwick you got this

Can understand the neutral not loving it but fuck, England have been shit for ages and winning is all that matters

Different style of game - conditions shit.

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

[stodders]

@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

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

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

[W32]

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

[stodders]

@sparky plan B? Kick more?

[Damo]

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.

Thumbs a bit sore after typing this. Need a water break.

@stodders Show some ambition with the ball in hand.

Genius!

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.

[stodders]

@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

@Damo said in RWC SF: England v Springboks:

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.

[stodders]

@MajorRage roost. To. coming. Chickens. Home.

[mooshld]

Lawes in everything. Really standing up!

Fuck I hope so. Never like England at rugby even thought my mum was born in London. Want them to win this as I think we will beat them next week. BOKS always worry me. We could win this whole thing and then Foster is a fucking genius ah !! LOL
