Fine until England made all their subs. Then it was chuffing nail biting.
Don’t know what I feel about next Saturday now. I did think we’d get thumped by whoever wins tonight but now I’m really not so sure. I need a lie down before 8:00pm!

I'm still bitter, but England have to play the winner of this next, so that's helping. :lol:

Feels like I might have chosen the wrong half to tune into.

You absolutely need to go back and watch the opening 30!

Agreed. One of the best 40 minutes you will ever see

Oh wow, amazing from South Africa to take that. I'd had France as nailed on finalists up until this evening. Incredible match.

The problem with South Africa is they always turn up with a full 23. Every player on their bench is good quality and will come on second half. Very difficult to match their intensity over 80 minutes.

Damn. Semi finals consisting of Ireland, Fiji, and France would have been intensely more interesting than the same old teams we keep seeing get this far.

Never thought I’d be gutted for France but I absolutely am.

Amazing game last night! That Kolbe charge down turned out to be vital!

I managed to predict all 4 QFs wrong :lol:

Can't really see past a NZ v South Africa final, but given my predictions so far we'll see Argentina v England :lol:

The weekend of two hammerings?!

PostRe: Rugby Union Thread by **still** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 7:58 pm

Just me watching then?!! :lol:

PostRe: Rugby Union Thread by **Tomous** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 8:01 pm

I've got it on.

Hard to see anything but a SA win.

PostRe: Rugby Union Thread by **Cuttooth** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 8:46 pm

Don’t know why we’re setting ourselves up for a cruel second half like this.

PostRe: Rugby Union Thread by **Knoyleo** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 9:20 pm

Absolutely hate to see it

PostRe: Rugby Union Thread by **Cuttooth** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 9:46 pm

South Africa are winning this.
