I don't know why but I reckon BOK would have been the talking points for the fanbase of whichever team lost

yeah because he’s no good, he guesses more than anyone but does it with conviction so everyone from WR (World Rugby) applauds him.

wayne Barnes has to get next week

....or Berry, or Gardner. Berry got to the highest level of this lot as a player and has an excellent feel for the game. Plus, it'd be delicious to see him stick it up Erasmus if the Saffers lose.

Berry is no chance. Blows the pea out of the whistle every chance he gets. Loves a ridiculous penalty because “It’s in the rules”.

Agreed, not a position I would chose to put myself in!

But SA play anti rugby style as well, the two worst styles of rugby just met, making a close horrible game of rugby.

Not always, South Africa just love doing it in World Cup semi finals for some reason

They can turn it on when needed. England however, aren’t capable of any good attack whatsoever

But they didn't turn it on? They kicked the same pens England kicked and scored a try off a line-out. Farrell's drop goal was more entertaining than whatever SA did all game lol. Are u also aware of the conditions the match was played in?

I never said they turned it on in this game. I said they have a good chance of beating NZ next week with Amore creative gameplan, as opposed to the 0% chance England would have had

Sure but honestly neither team has a realistic chance against NZ.

South Africa beat them 35-7 less than 2 months ago

SA have a more realistic chance than any other team

Bit of time foil hat wearing I think

World cup form...

 

[Tomthumb]

World cup form...

I could have sworn I watched France cruise to a win over New Zealand in the World Cup

Yeah the Boks are in terrible form, coming out of the pool of death and beating France in their home tournament. Really poor form…

Yep. AB are marginal favourites. Bok odds drifting slightly in a tight betting market but they certainly have a realistic chance.

Berry has 0 feel for the game. But he's Mike Adamson with even better PR. so he gets a go.
