I've seen read a lot of comments the last 3 or 4 weeks, and what I would say to a lot of these so-called fans to wash their mouths out with soap. Absolutely disgusting people on social media. The media don't England at all, hence why a lot of Scots won't support England. And I'll be honest, I was one of them, but I see the bigger picture. A lot of fans absolutely slating Scotland, and I mean to the point where it's vial comments. The Irish being one of them. I had a soft spot for the irish but by christ their ego was up through the roof and got shot down back to reality. I know that as a Scotland, we have always struggled at the top level, and have come along way to 5th in the rankings. But that doesn't count for anything as its what you do on the pitch that counts . And your only as good as your last game. . We had a very tough group, I feel like we could have done a lot better. Find Russell is not a captain and should have been left to do what he does best on the pitch to do his on thing. Scotland shat it against S.A and Ireland rather than take the game to them. As u say England were outstanding last night but wasn't meant to be and Owe Farrel needs calm down and keep a lid on it. Lol

As a Welshman in his 50s, that is the first time since I was a small boy that I have felt so supportive of an Elnglish team that gave everything and more on the field to lose to one of the greatest sides in the world at present. Such a transformation. I've never slammed the table in frustration when things just about didn't come off for my lifelong rugby nemesis England as often as I did tonight. It was almost like watching my own team Wales, I was so on England's side to the very last second. Every single member of that team can be proud, as can all the coaches and backroom staff, for taking a aide (like Wales were) written off before the tournament, to the point of a matter of minutes from a WC Final. After last nights training match for the All Blacks, tonight was amazing to watch and but for a last minute penalty and the incredible comeback and depth of talent in the Boks side, we would be looking at an England v New Zealand final next week. No-one outside of maybe the England team itself could have predicted they would truly play such an amazing match and Diolch yn fawr from a Welshman, for the thrills, spills and bellyaches tonight. PS: Back to hating you again when you play us in the 6 nations of course lol :)

Martin, that is a nice respectful comment, but from an old kiwi bloke I’ve got disagree with you. That was not a game of rugby, it was a game of aerial ping pong, The English invented the game, but have forgotten how to play it. Kicking and giving away possession all the time hoping the other team stuffs up might win the odd game, but you won’t get wins consistently. Also, it seems NH teams like to slow the game down , by constant water breaks, pretending their boots are coming off, or faking injuries etc,. I think perhaps if they upped their fitness level, if that’s the problem, and start using their forwards and their backs the way they are meant to be, and try to use different game plans instead of a one diamentional ping pong would make for much more competitive team. A nice bloke like you telling them how good they are, is not going to help them, unless of course as a Welshman that’s your game plan.

The reason why is because of the Two guys sittig there being interviewed after what must be a gutt wrenching time orthem and the team. We were superb, tactically brilliant and smart with our all round game. Farrell is a supreme captain and leader and you could see the passion in him. I will eat my words about Borthwick who i wasn't convinced about as the knew head coach, how wrong was i!! He's very humble, honest and deserves all the credit he gets for what he's done in a short space of time. For me England were the best team for 62mins and south Africa for the remainder, but because we hadn't got a try they were always there as good teams are and found just enough to win. I'm gutted obviously but well done south Africa. On another note i will have to brush up on some of the new rules especially in the scrum!?

Agree, when England play with intensity/passion I can really back them and the last two games they've showed up and been really good to get behind.. (I've been pissed off for years) I wouldn't worry about the scrum rules, could easily argue some bad calls by the ref, but the way I look at it is the saffa front row did a fantastic job of blurring the lines and getting the ref well and truly in their side.. rest is history (The first and last pen when we had the new front rows on could:ve easily been given the other way for boring in)

I agree 💯 % . I was pulling my hair out. Everytime the boks gained some sort of momentum the ref would blow a ridiculous call and kill the momentum. The boks were rattled by the ref not England. They were getting penalized at the breakdown for ridiculous things and so started rushing things. Also the ref kept shouting use it use it before we even have a chance to settle. England were adding 3 players on the back of a ruck ffs! And no call to use it! We have been playing the ref since the damn Ireland game which we should have won. No doubt next week we will play the ref again. The world doesn't want to see Springboks win a 4th title. IRB wants their beloved ABs to win since their first choice Ireland is out.

Libbok can come on in the last 10min if necessary, because he is a total liability on defense and kicking. Against NZ we MUST take it to them up front, NZ very vulnerable in that area. So it is a final and upon seeing the last two games we played we should bring on fresh legs in the form of Esterhuizen and Moody. Go for a 7-1 split and take the risk, NZ cannot play their backs if the they are dominated up front!! We saw that almost two months ago.

To the reporter who said something like "I'm sure they (the players) are all disappointed because it just came down to a scrum penalty". No it f'ing didn't. Another HUGE factor is England's typical pattern of getting a 2 or more score lead and with 30 mins or so to go, deciding to be lazy, stop trying to score and just relying on defending that lead. They do it so often, you can kind of count on it! By the time they realised that they needed to score more they had been totally out-subbed by South Africa and it was too late.

You cannot just avoid scrums and I'm pretty sure we at least matched them in the scrum until the last 20 minutes. We didn't need to win scrums just not lose penalties in the scrum. It costs too much to give easy territory like that.

@@mikerobinson9836 If you had scored a try 10 mins before, it wouldn't have mattered , If the ball wasn't dropped and knocked-on there would have been no scrum. You simply cannot live on the fact that the game was solely lost because of a scrum penalty. If's and's and but's do no one any good after a game is done. It's sports and we need to accept it. The thing that really worries me is the outcry from English rugby 'todo's' about abolishing the scrum from the game. Reactionary actions while emotions are running high are no good for anything. Just ask anyone in a long-term relationship!!

Tactical brilliance from England , really unlucky to lose. They showed other teams how to beat the Springboks. Yet England should have won easily. Teams should have a plan B if their scrummaging fails. I have seen other teams outscrummed and adapt. Last final 4 years ago (it was also scrums) and today's semi final again scrums) that cost England the game . Do they NOT HAVE A PLAN B ? AGAINST STRONGER SCRUMS?

Hi, I'm French and you know what I mean about Rose's team. But yesterday, I was for yours. Whith the rain, you played with yours arms and you merited the win. But BOK and BOKK said : " NO NO NO!!!" We are the same destiny but no the same level.. After this 2 matches, WR has her final so... Everybody is hzppy. I respect Itowe'during a long time, your number 15 and Farrell were incridible, determined. Your 1rst ligne in first half was very impressionnant.. But BOK and the last scrum said NO!!!

Someone earlier commented the boks played poorly the last 2 games (and won) but will need a miracle to win next week. Let me tell that person (l am not a bok fan) but a south african . A miracle is exactly what helped them win against France (nothing else) and a miracle is what helped them win against England (nothing else) and only a 3rd miracle can deliver a win against New Zealand. Without these rugby miracles from GOD SOUTH AFRICA AS A COUNTRY WILL COLLAPSE ( IM NOT JOKING) THINGS ARE FALLING APART IN S.A..

A lot of people are complaining about the refereeing, but where were all the other teams when the Springboks said the refs have not been fair for the past few years??? When Rassie complained about the refs and got his bans??? Everyone said he was making excuses??? Until the analytics came out!!! And the proof was there against World Rugby... Watch TASanalytics... Yes refs make mistakes, but they are blatantly taking sides and at pivotal points of games... Being South African I obviously know more about the way it went against the Springboks ie : The final minute ruck against Ireland... The maul collapses vs England... Offsides at line outs and mauls vs Springboks... there are just too many inconsistancies and when they get looked at afterwards the evidence is there... All the teams need to get together and argue an overall case to better the rules and refs as it effects the game fundamentally... If 1 ref can't cope, put 2 on the field but something needs to change because the effort that all teams put in should not be decided by a refs mistakes

England cant kick their way into a final,they need to play rugby,ball in hand, backs combination its like they didnt trust the backs to run the ball.This is not a test match its a boring kicking match by England that was scared to run the ball. S.A had been battered from the pools and quaters and it showed tonight in their performace.If England cant win against a poor S.A perfomance how do they expect to play ABs in the final🤔. England was on the front foot when Borthwick decide to change the forward packs,and then it all come crumbling down to pressure from S.A bomb squad. If England needs to get better they need to play with ball in hand,otherwise fans will be booing them all the time of playing football in rugby matchs.
