Has Borthwick finally got the message? I fear not

Re: SF v SA
Referee refuses to ref the final few minutes. Showing why an average ref shouldn't be given a semi final.

No tries for SA. Better than we expected. Pushed them to the limit. A different (better) ref and maybe that swings our way.

Re: SF v SA
Please sack Mullins and Kay almost as biased as Phil Vickery and at least he had the good sense to stop his commentary career

Re: SF v SA
I mean, we can talk about whether Farrell should play for England (no) but surely Sinkler and Vunipola can't be given any more chances?
It was so much easier to blame Them. It was bleakly depressing to think They were Us. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

“Playing 10 properly”… what does that even mean.

Re: SF v SA
Farrell is responsible for that loss for giving them a kickable pen by getting us marched back 10m for being a cunt

Re: SF v SA
Simples..SA reserve pack vastly superior to Eng at scrumtime.
Steward's poor kick sealed it at the crucial time.
Well done SA.
Well done Eng for making a game of it, helped by the weather.
Never looked like scoring a try, has to be said.

Genge and Sinckler good carriers but not great at bread and butter of scrummaging

Second front row no up to it.
Billy cannot keep ball in contact
But that said they had a limited team and coaches constructed a very limited game plan. And it almost worked.

Re: SF v SA
Koch has done what any prop would when he realises the ref isn't interested in him.
It's all ifs and buts, that last Steward kick, when we'd just had joy killing their momentum by kicking longer was a killer error.

Re: SF v SA
So who says 10-man rugby is dead?
England lost that when they subbed the two starting props. Their replacements were absolutely munched in the scrums. That said, for the final SA scrum penalty that won the game, their TH was boring like hell.
