RWC: Wales v South Africa (SF2)

[chimoaus]

Welsh scrum under pressure, but they are looking good with ball in hand.

[MiketheSnow]

Poor from Davies. No pressure.

[Machpants]

Fucking awful rugby

Boks will scrum for s penalty here

[sparky]

O good, another Faf De Klerk box kick.

[junior]

This match has turned into aerial ping pong. England will belt the living daylights out of both teams on this performance so far.

[chimoaus]

Poor kick from Halfpenney and a dropped ball from Wales. Both sides appear to be playing a similar style, SA seem to be slightly better at it.

[antipodean]

So what's worse so far?

1. Faf's incessant box kicking.
2. Le Roux.
3. Garces' refereeing.

[ACT Crusader]

Something world rugby needs to look at is the box kicking from the base of a ruck and the fact that there are always half a dozen players in front that don’t retreat.

Wales leaving their brains in the dressing room.

If NZ had played with half the kicking game yesterday they may well have been in the final

Not only that but they actively chase and disrupt the space.

They don't have to retreat. Just not move forward until put onside. Normally they're put onside immediately by a chaser running past them.

[chimoaus]

Did Faf knock that on?

[MiketheSnow]

How many forward fucking passes do you want Garces?

[chimoaus]

SA 13 touches the ball for the first time 30 minutes in and makes a break.

[Yeetyaah]

Ah Garces is shit

[Kirwan]

Boks look in complete control, just slowly grinding them down

[Damo]

Both teams need to hold on to the ball for a few phases when they get good ball.

[junior]

So now he calls a tackle in the air?

[ACT Crusader]

Garces happy to see Bok players come in from the side and just tells them to keep their feet....
