That was cruel.

The silly dissent in the first half which moved the penalty 10 yards forward cost us.
 
So near, yet so far. Was expecting us to lose by 10 plus points ams didn't see that performance coming.

Gutted for them

It's hard to be gutted when you are expecting it.

I'd of liked to have seen us go for a try with the first penalty, as it was the one try that made the big difference.

Hopefully the central contracts kick in and provide a better platform to build from.
 
New Zealand slight favourites to win the final.

The two teams I least wanted to be in it.

SA will be weeping that they don't have their favourite ref for this game. Okeffee was manipulated by them through the quarter against France and the second half against us. They were pointing and telling him what to do man, shocking. He was dire in the last Lions series too, when he was heard on audio regularly asking their captain if he " was okay". Unheard of behaviour that. This followed leaked audio of Erasmus heavily criticising the first test referring.

He's young, and they have his number.

Hopefully the Kiwis beat them though. SA should be without their hooker (their only one too) after him calling Tom Curry " a white c**t, something else Okeffee let go. Somehow though this type of racism will likely go unpunished.

Really happy to see Underhill back in an England shirt.

A tad too much kicking for my liking.

I had an SAFC and NZ to win by more than 2 points for £80 profit.

Ha'way S.Africa lol
 
Little bump for this ahead of the 6 nations, one blessing of us not playing until Monday is I can let England be my source of fume instead, love this tournament, struggling to pick a winner between Ireland France and Scotland, England to be the best of the rest unfortunately

I think France will win it, them and Ireland the class acts

Hope Scotland do it, got 3 home games so there's a chance but tough away games in France and England

Seem to have our number now Scotland, fancy them to turn us over again, van der merwe will run riot against our backs, always a good tournament though especially now Italy are competitive

Yep, Wales likely to struggle but Italy impressed me last yr

Scotland have a quality back 3, all 3 are very dangerous with ball in hand - need the big players to stay fit
