    South Africa deserved it. They dictated the game plan and we failed to counter it.

    still can’t stand the SA scrum half or the referee.

    Minor point in the game but second last try do forward passes not get penalised now?

    I thought the ref was one of the best in the world but today he missed so many things in the first half alone

    England, learnt a harsh lesson today .froze for me like. also a french man should never be in charge of that game ,and it was justified with his **** frogs legs performance

    Mystifying match. How De Klerk was allowed to repeatedly and blatantly cheat was bizarre. It was like a defender in football committing three cynical challenges and not getting booked. Then good to see VAR being utterly pointless in another sport too - how the ref can't see the second pass was forward is beyond me.

    SA dominated the scrums, of course, and were happy to park the bus. Romantically, it was a nice story for both the captain and try-scorers to show black influence on SA rugby. But it would have been nice to see the two nations go toe-to-toe instead of the lopsided affair we had to watch.

    said this before but
    you can't say too much against the Refs here as the Ref Poloice will be onto you in a flash
    yet no-one has shown me any credentials they are a better ref than me
