Rugby Union 21/22/23 Discussion | RWC time!

[Camy89]

How was that not ‘not releasing’?

 

[slyadams]

Crap match so far.

Utter gash.

Can’t see NZ losing to either of these sides.

It’s a WC SF, result is the only thing that matters.

Everyone was also saying SA would smash this England side. It’s not like NZ came into this tournament flying, not sure why they invoke such confidence.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Ehem, he’s got a fair bit wrong against us as well…..the shoulder to Lawes’ face? It’s been an incompetent reffing performance, but hasn’t gone all one way

I said he’s been terrible, not biased.

 

[unchanged_lineup]

it’s semi final rugby, not that i’d expect you to know that.

 

[McGrathsipan]

Mistake after Mistake

 

[unchanged_lineup]

Rassie was ruthless with Pollard, not sure why he hasn't brought on Faf

 

[unchanged_lineup]

Ah, he just did

 

[rimaldo]

the fact south africa are making these subs suggests england are doing something right.

 

[Traub]

We look fecked

Also the scoreboard.

 

[rimaldo]

[Shakesy]

We look fecked

Yeah. We're coming home

Savage.

 

[Yorkeontop]

Let's give NZ the cup already.

 

[TheGame]

SA haven’t thrown straight in a while and haven’t been penalised bar once.

 

[Reiver]

We look fecked

Much tougher quarter final match

 

[Camy89]

SA haven’t thrown straight in a while and haven’t been penalised bar once.

They’ve been penalised twice.

 

[Zen]

Come on, get over this try hump against these bums.

 

[TheGame]

All these subs 5 mins after half time.

 

[TheGame]

They’ve been penalised twice.

Once I can remember. I don’t disagree with the decision but there have been others and they haven’t been penalised.

 

[rimaldo]

england wobble on now.

 

[unchanged_lineup]

Jamie George had absolutely no idea where that ball he threw went

 

[kidbob]

England are winning this. SA not turned up and not dealing with the conditions but have to say England have been impressive. Dull but effective game plan.

 

[Camy89]

Once I can remember. I don’t disagree with the decision but there have been others and they haven’t been penalised.

This is actually the first game I’ve seen where throws have been penalised for not being straight.

Thats 3 overall now (plus George’s little feck up there). It’s weird it’s all of a sudden being so strictly looked at. As if they’ve been told before hand.

I’ve always thought a lot of throws look squint but never get called.

 

[TheGame]

First bad kick by Mitchell.

Definitely agree. I posted similar earlier. So many dodgy line out throws across the tournament.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

My God this is a grim game of rugby.

 

[Camy89]

SA looking like Scotland.

 

[TheGame]

My God this is a grim game of rugby.

If England played expansively they would have got hammered. They are playing with a game plan.

 

[JPRouve]

It can't be overstated, England's defense has been excellent.

 

[Camy89]

Wow what a scrum

 

[Reiver]

SA looking like Scotland.

If they did they would probably be ahead

 

[rimaldo]

My God this is a grim game of rugby.

proper knockout rugby, not show pony group games and quarters.

 

[Brwned]

This is what rugby usually seems like to me. Soooooo dull

 

[Skills]

it’s semi final rugby, not that i’d expect you to know that.

 

[TheGame]

 

[P-Ro]

Yeah England this is grim. Just go and lose valiantly like Ireland.

 

[TheGame]

Drop Goal!!!

 

[Skills]

What a hit son, what a hit

 

[P-Ro]

Wheyyyy
