Thank you tairnan... yes the angle on the reply shows it clearly is NOT forward. The Irish commentators have shown what bad sports they really are. They have also shown how little they regard South Africans. So no matter how badly the English have treated them, they still think more of them and would rather they do well than South Africa... quite remarkable!!!

It is not SA's fault that Ireland and Scotland couldnt top their pool. Also it wasnt their fault that they were drawn with NZ. Remember Ireland and Wales were ranked number one before the WC. So to mention that England had the tougher route that is something that the organisers should sought out for the future. Also remember England played a game less coming into the quarter final. Had England won Im sure O Gara would not be so negative. Disappointed in his comments.

SA fan here I agree . I don't know why people are so negative about SA . SA plays good rugby and we do derserve it . The rugby ranking for me is not accurate . I don't know how they analyse it . On the other hand some people just can't take the way we perform and will always try nd do anything to make the out come of something good something bad . South Africa are one of the team's that doesn't play other citizens, we simply just can not afford them. Our currency is very bad so most of our players go to Europe cause its more profitable . Most people (all players) move to Europe and get a opportunity to play rugby there . After the players get residences then they get a opportunity to represent the country which is fair . South Africa we work with what we have and we always perform....Some hate to see it . I'm glad action always speak louder then words and South Africa proved they are World champions in 2019 . Well done Bokke you guys made a light for so many individuals in the darkest times in our country , to prove people that we can do so much more when we work together 🌈

Ronans analysis is pretty good but one penalty 5 meters out in 21 phases is never a yellow card and to even suggest that is ridiculous. If they had given away 3 penalties sure then there is a question but no ref in history has ever given yellow for one penalty 5 meters out unless it clearly prevented a try which was not the case here. Also, on field decision was a try, there was no way anyone can say for sure that pass was forward, it looked flat and there was no way in hell any ref was going to overturn a 50/50 call. The try was fair.

I am taken aback by the consistent post final commentary indicating how unlucky England were. Would encourage Ronan to view the SA missed opportunities and the momentum shift scenarios in the same light as he has for England. Johnny May (albeit amazing athleticism) jumping from the touch line to tap the Pollard penalty back - should have been a SA line out 10m from the line. What then? How about the penalty in favor for SA in the first half which the ref played very little advantage for and no score came from it. And finally, would love to see some commentary on the visibly very poor sportsmanship at the end, where Farrell and Jones provided no congrats to SA in their post match de-briefs. Take a leaf from NZ’s professionalism. Well done to SA. To our boys from our proud provinces - we’ll get back up there and look back at this stage and realize the pain was worth it.

Let's break it down for O'Gara, cause for a so called "rugby legend" he has lost my respect. 1.Japan beat Ireland and Scotland, and were a much better team than what Ireland was this world cup Ronan is salty because Ireland lost to Japan. SA know how that feels Wales was just as hard if not the harder game of the two semi-finals. More tackles, both forward dominant. SA had less time between that and the final. Meaning a full 24hours extra Eng had to recover. 2.England had it easy, Australia is horrible this year, not sure why they think that was a hard game. They missed one pool game that should've been a tough one, that's an extra 80minutes your players don't have to get battered and bruised. Yes NZ was a tough one but in terms of who had the better run, England had that. 3.That pass was referred, not as if the ref ignored it. It went back from the hands, take it up with world rugby and the TMO. 4. Owen Farell missed one kick, don't act like he would have should've, could've converted a conversion if he had one. 5. That was ONE penalty in 10 minutes, how the F**K is that a yellow card? England just couldn't break the SA defense. Which for the day was 92%, unheard of for ANY team in a worldcup final. In any case, Jerome tried to give the try to england but they couldn't get through, usually that advantage lasts 5minutes max then the ref gives the penalty and stops play. But he tried really hard to keep the game flowing for England which is awesome. We love seeing advantage being played. 6. England were under pressure the whole time. Making silly mistakes. Ford was nowhere this game. Kolisi had Curry's number and Curry was counter rucked by him at every ruck. 7. Can't believe O'Gara would advocate for uncontested scrums. That's why he wasn't a world cup winner especially with that mindset. 8. If England had something to complain about, it was one scrums where Kitsoff had his arm on the ground. But they lost a prop, South Africa lost a hooker and a lock early on. If England were smarter, they'd know that Marx' lineout throws arent always the best, so they would've switched to their tactical kicking game where Ford is so good at, but they tried to kick onto Willie. 9. Don't even get me started on how he didn't even know how to say Mapimpi. Really not that hard. Has the same amount of syllables than his own name. 10. South Africa's record with Garces I believe is 12 times reffed, 3 times won. Something like that. South Africa didn't just hang on, they were doing pullups with the english around their legs from the get go. So salty all my respect lost for this man.

In his playing days Ronan looked pretty bright, but clearly not the case!Never thought the Ireland were bad losers,but after that bs interview I’ve been mistaken all along.Sad to see that from a once great player.

@@henkstols9326 still hypothetical mate. To state as fact that he would not of made a difference is bollocks. As for the media, they are always going to hype things up. It's what sells newspapers, it's what tv pundits get paid for. Everyone gave an opinion based on the displays in the knockout stages. It was said by everyone, that if England play like they did against the ABs then the boks would struggle to hold them. That was true of O'Driscoll , sean Fitzpatrick and Linear amongst others, and I'm sure a lot of south Africans feared that might be the case. And everyone also said that was not guaranteed to happen. Garland questioned England's ability to do it, and we all know no two games are the same in rugby. Nobody said or thought England just had to turn up to win. Only an fool would think that way and only an idiot would believe that was how most people were thinking. If expressing a bit of confidence in your team is going to be deemed as arrogance then maybe we'd be better off if we all said nothing and let the game die a slow death through lack of media coverage.

Have to say the the Irish pundits look like they have a issue with the Boks, ROG calling that pass forward despite the Ref, TMO, and the majority of neutrals seeing it otherwise. ROG's belief that there should have been a yellow against the Boks, etc. Here are a few things that I saw that went unpunished by the Ref. Kolbe was high tackled around the neck. English players entering from the side on a few Bok mauls. Short lineout throwin not straight by the English. England also guilty of pushing the boundaries at the breakdown. Agree that in the end it balances out but ROG chooses focus on those in favour of the Boks. This may have something to do with the last Lions tour to SA when Irish players where so dominant in that squad yet the Lions lost the series

South Africa were holding back the whole world cup it seems. They played a kicking game to force penalties on their aponents through pressure and played mainly with their forwards. They knew their defense was good enough to support this style of play. The ball barely ever went out to their backline which was pretty upsetting giving the amount of dangerous attacking runners they have. Its almost like they played the same predictable game all tournament long just to change their style completely in the final. One almost wonders if it was planned or on purpose. England surely didn't see it coming. Either way, i think South Africa completely outplayed England and probably would have beaten any other team the way they played on Saturday. They played to their strengths and were the best version of themselves on the day.

Ronan, you saw a farward pass in the lead up to Mapimpi's try, but the TMO didn't. The TMO also has better access to the angles than any viewer does. You are the first person I heard who thinks that try should not have counted. It's in the record books now though.

England gets a bye and more rest and still not up for the finals, remember South Africa played NZ as an opener and also had injuries. No excuses, on the day South Africa was better by a mile, We never claim to be the best in the world, but for that final South Africa came ready and had England number. When England beat NZ no one said NZ was rubbish, they said England was great, but South Africa beats England and England gave it to South Africa, that is such poor taste. Come on guys, we could of scrummed all day for 3 points and also dominated the line-outs, but instead South Africa came ready to play and win. So the referee and the touch judges and the TMO all miss a forward pass. This is rubbish, England was out played, be gracious in defeat, learn from NZ in that regard. These comments diminishes a great match, England is a great team and that was not their day, their coach and team did wonderful and respect to them but South Africa played Wales which was ranked number 1 in the world, played a Japan that beat Scotland and Ireland so how can you say they had an easy road. There is no easy road to lift the Webb Ellis Cup. Either-way if they are as good as we all know they are then in 4 years they will be dominant and I feel sorry whom ever must play them.

Got a lot of time for O'Gara's rugby wisdom but I think England would have prefered to play Australia rather than Wales in the Quarters. South Africa had Japan because Japan beat Ireland, and beat Ireland well. Wales pushed South Africa all the way, because that's what Wales do even when they're evidently not the better team. It seems to be always a case of saying South Africa underperformed against Wales and then performed against England, there seems to never be any credit for the fact that Wales were just a drop kick and 10 minutes aways from winning that match. A match where Wales had to contend with the 'bomb squad' and had half of their first choice pack unavailable. Will anybody ever give Wales credit instead of classing them as lucky or that their opponents underperformed? I doubt it (smile).
