Wales never deserved it, France are the best team in Europe and the only reason Wales got to the semis is by playing weak European teams.

Tonga

Awesome WUM........ you really must try better

Contact between two human beings at speed is always going to be dangerous. What do you want? Touch rugby?

Contact between two people at speed in a proper tackle is fine. Hitting a player driving him back by lifting him of his feet and dropping him onto his head and neck is dangerous. Bit of a difference.

 

[Magricos]

Not even a ref can help France win the final.

Dang... ¯\(0_o)/¯
Didn't expect that from a semi-final.

Wales never deserved it? Yeah they paid the price for playing rugby and not absolute anti-rugby from the negative, un-rugby french. There's no way they deserved to win. Any side that commits absolutely no-one to a ruck in such a fashion is playing a disgraceful brand of rugby in any country!

I'd be ashamed if New Zealand ever won a game in such a pathetic way!

Also, have you lost your mind? You guys lost to Tonga and New Zealand. Wales lost one game in a true pool of death by a tiny margin against the world champs!

You must be delusional!!!

 

[Crusader]

No offence to French fans, but it will be tragedy for rugby, if THIS team will win the cup!

 

[Sam91]

that game actually ****** me off, sorry wales you were the winner in everyone elses mind

i agree with that part, France deserved this win more since the ref was so much against them

 

[merlinux]

exstatic right now Im so hapy we went through this even though it wasnt pretty. My heart goes to all the welsh supporter and I think you should be proud of your team.
Amazing french defense although we never put a try I think we deserve the win. This french team is reminding me of england in 03 ....
Now I hope australia goies through tomorrow as having both french and australian passport I will be partying for the win a week early ahahahah. That said my prime team will always be the french and Ill support the wallabies unless they meet the blues.

come on man it was a semi final in the dying minutes of the game, they didn't commit numbers so they would have numbers on defence, any other team would and has done the same, at least admit that

 

[lucky number 7]

Mike Philips is such a c**t - swearing the French players faces after scoring

Agreed... utter ******.

Gotta feel Wales were hard done by , but the Blue half of me is still bloody Chuffed ...and the green is quietly cursing..

Yep great result against Tonga, they have the potential of saying they beat the world champions.

Congrats on the win and all that but please refrain from comparing this French team to England's 2003 World Cup winning team unless you are doing it to demonstrate the French teams inferiority

 

[Amobokoboko]

What a game. Both teams deserved it. Why was the Welsh skipper sent off? Missed that part.

 

[munstermuffin]

Absolutely gutted about this game.
As an Irish man and a neutral I am disappointed because:
- It was a debatable red card but a 50/50 call and well unfortunately it had huge impact on game
- Wales were the better team and well fact that they had 14 men for 60mins and always looked the more likely to score was bad.
- But lastly the RWC as a spectacle is over after the final tomorrow because Aus/NZ will destroy that French team. And well the 3rd/4th place playoff will be slightly flat.
- Wales will be back and well must say they will be a class act team for years.
