[antipodean]

@Stargazer we could just be honest and mention the Rainbow Warrior.

@kiwiinmelb Being on French rugby forums, they'll say that because of the "anglo-saxon" link between NZ and South Africa, the ref was always going to decide in favour of South Africa in the 50/50 situations.

More likely BOK is getting revenge for 07.

Hits the upright and stays out.

Yeah I’ve read that type of stuff from them

DuPont’s kicking. 😍

[chimoaus]

DuPont is a fucking little master isn’t he.

[Stargazer]

@chimoaus Nah. We're still obsessed with 07. They don't even remember it.

That's a clear yellow card. What is wrong with these officials.

They ruled it went back.

It did. Hand was in front of the line, it landed behind.

[sparky]

SA score.

[sparky]

Boks take the lead. 12-7.

[chimoaus]

He is such a unit, I can’t help but look at him and think SAS soldier.

[Machpants]

Man, these teams can't defend lol.

Boks given up on box kick rugby

[Bones]

Maybe I'm biased because of stress, but this is sublime to watch. Some unbelievable rugby by both sides.

[sparky]

Conversion wide. France 7 Republic of South Africa 12.

[chimoaus]

SA still need a kicker.

[Toddy]

Boks were lucky to get away with that lineout. Wasn't straight at all

[chimoaus]

Poor exit SA.

[MN5]

Big fan of De Allende. Tremendous all round player.

[sparky]

France so dangerous off quick ball.
