Hello Bokkes, as a french fan I can only admire your determination during this game. Congratulations your victory is deserved and not stolen! The level between the two teams was very balanced, it was an awesome game of rugby. Probably the best ive seen. I think there are a lot of questionnable decisions made by the referee but I want to stay worthy in the defeat. May the better team win the world cup, enjoy the rest of the competition in our beloved country and let's all appreciate a little bit more these amazing final phases!

@ChangeHandballLaw 9 ай бұрын

It's funny how people say there were decisions against the boks but can't name one. I'll give you one: a few scrums collapsed 'looked like' they did so from the French. However that is not a 'clear' decision as scrums are always very hard to get right, unlike 'hands on the ground in a ruck' which should have given Les Bleus a penalty instead of conceding one. As for sportsmanship of the crowd, well, they are allowed their opinion on refs decisions too and which home crowd does not support their team. Is De Klerk deliberately passing on a French player to try to get a penalty good sportsmanship? Is Kolbe starting his run before Ramos started his kick good sportsmanship? Unfortunately, the French have had their share of terrible referring, 1995 against the Boks probably being the worst ever and anyone with an ounce of honesty knows the victory that day was stolen from them.

There were incidents that could also have gone the Springboks way. At the end of the day South Africa scored more tries and their defence won them the game. I feel for the French but it is what it is. They are a good side. Don't diminish your talents by blaming the ref. I appreciate that they recanted on their feelings about the ref halfway through the interview and they congratulated the Springboks.

@ChangeHandballLaw 9 ай бұрын

Scoring more tries doesn't mean you necessarily win. Yes we can argue about calls not being made on both sides, but it is a fact that some called against France were wrong and cost them points: - the last penalty should have been reversed since the SA player had his hands on the ground. There is no denying that or talking about ref's appreciation. This is a clear rule and a clear foul. - the conversion blocked happened because Kolbe started his run before Ramos started his run. There is also no denying that even Kolbe said he was glad they didn't use TMO (why, do you think?). These are facts. Other controversial decisions include the potential deliberate knock-on that would have changed the game. This one is unclear because most image angles don't show exactly whether the ball went forward or backward. But it would not have been scandalous to give the French a penalty try and SA a yellow card on this.

I am still seething over what seem to be ref inconsistencies between one match and the next. Aaron Smith yellow card for interference ( vs Wales) but Owen Farrell (vs Fiji) was more obvious and nothing happened. Shocking. Fiji was not awarded a penalty, Wales was. Mbonambi and du Toit off for head checks but didn’t see any follow up on how those happened. Etzebeth yellow carded. Sportsmanlike he apologised the French prop as he left the field. All teams are affected by inconsistent judgements made by refs. Great match - brutally fast and hard. Both teams had moments of brilliance and on the day, under these circumstances, the Boks held out as tougher and more canny, able to neutralise the overwhelming noise of the crowd supporting their home team. Not easy. But not the French team’s problem.

Don't point fingers. Suck it up. Your team did amazing, and I'm sure by the next World Cup they will be even more so than now. You lost to a powerhouse like ZA by one point. One point.

I watched the 4 quarter finals, and during the very pleasant game between 2 outstanding teams : France and South Africa , it became clear to me that similar actions arbitrated by two different teams of referees were not consistently leading to the same decisions (e.g. voluntary knock-ons, rucks). That makes the game unreadable for non-specialists like me, and somehow unfair, not that much between the opponents of one match, but between all the teams involved in the quarter finals. That should no be and it's probably an issue to solve by World Rugby in the coming years (as well as ending up with 2 of the 4 best teams of the tournament being eliminated in quarters, based on their rankings years ago - non sense). I also want to say that I always feel bad reading comments judging people like many youtubers do here (the usual mediocre people sitting in their armchair judging exceptional people actions and results).

The referee lost control of the game there we fouls that the springboks committed that even i was surprised that he did give a penalty against us. The French fans are right to be angry at the refereeing but some of the calls (30-40%) were also against us. Whoever lost yesterday would have had a case to say the referee was unfair and biased.
