[RWC2023 SF2] England vs South Africa (21/10/2023)

[Jashay]

Oh, no, Billy already?

 

[Reiser99]

Borthwick should consider a similar call with Ford for Farrell.

This Bok performance reminds me of the Coetzee days. Pick halfbacks with a certain skillset then ask them to play to their weaknesses. I can't beleive how ordinary the Bok pack has been made to look in large parts of the last two games.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Pollard on and Vunipola on

That's like 14 point swing

Called it lmaoo

 

[TW27BA]

Curry off with a broken snotter?
Cant understand Billy over Ludlum

 

[TW27BA]

Well done Billy, spills his first touch

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Is he ******* allergic to rugby balls or something

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Is that a permanent switch for TC?

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

tuliagi and pollard collided . . . both out 8-12 weeks

 

[ncurd]

BOK still not properly checking for knock ons though. So he still need to learn.

 

[Reiser99]

Billy dropping it there is completely on Borthwick and his poor selection.

 

[Jimbo]

3 points seems like the best outcome for England here.

 

[TRF_stormer2010]

One for the purists lol.

Suppose not totally unexpected but horrible nonetheless. Hoping our bench can make a big impact.

 

[Scotty]

Honestly our defence is holdong up well, not saying im happy with stupid pens but they arnt getting anywhere and forced to take the 3.

 

[saulan]

Smart pull. They've realised this is a 2007 final type game and not a high scoring try one. We need to convert penalties and points. Mauls and lineouts aren't working, so need to try get the lead and build scoreboard pressure

 

[Reiser99]

I'll take 3 there as that could have been far worse.

 

[Scotty]

One for the purists lol.

I enjoy a physical game with a great kicking game if im honest. Normally more than a 70 - 0 type game.

 

[Jashay]

What the actual hell was that?

 

[Bluemoon]

Borthwick should consider a similar call with Ford for Farrell.

With England matching SA up front and then some, he'd be perfect for this game so far.

 

[Reiser99]

Well that was a pointless lineout
