Win or lose, Hugoâs on the Rose
Your favourite term, ballast, got a nice couple of mentions on ITV when Rassie unloaded the bench in a panic
Great to see so many tfk posters who ridiculed Ireland for their loss v New Zealand pat the English players on the back after throwing away a 15-6 lead.

Like a wake here on ITV, Clive and Jonny gone yellow looking while Habanna with a big shit eating grin on his face, ebullient

New Zealand v South Africa leaves me cold.
Itâs like an all-Munster All-Ireland football final.
I wanted England to win that as their culture is very similar to ours, in fact our respective cultures are so similar we might as well be the same country.
England would have been destroyed. New Zealand would be too fresh for them.

New Zealand v South Africa is the traditional heavyweight pairing of the sport.
South Africa are great pantomime villains. Hopefully they win it. New Zealanders are an utter dose when it comes to rugby and take themselves far too seriously.
Big advantage for New Zealand more or less having a bye from the quarter final to the final.

Big win for South Africa but, would they swap a series win in New Zealand for a place in the final? Surely not.

I would have loved to see New Zealand winning a World Cup by losing to France then beating Ireland, Argentina, and a punch drunk England.
Would have reminded me a bit of Kerryâs 2006 football All-Ireland.
In fairness the South Africans are an absolute odd bunch
South Africa v New Zealand is meant to be played in Ellis Park and Ellis Park only. Itâs a bit like how Kerry v Cork should only be played in Killarney or Tyrone v Armagh should only be in Clones. Once you bring it to Croke Park itâs not the same.
Matt Williams making some excellent points on the scrum fiasco.
England just ran out of steam. First 15 had them, but England got worse with every substitution.

What did he say?
Incredible analogy comparing the South African pack to âgood tax accountantsâ - âthey find a loopholeâ.
Senan Connell not saying much here.
