South Africa putting on one of the biggest bottle jobs I've ever seen in rugby. Mad. They think they're Ireland. 

 

This is disingeniuous.

England have been the best they've been this world but SA have been shite here

[Sly]

Momentum can shift very quickly though

[FoxyPV]

ARGH!  

[CosbehFox]

Knew that scrum five metres from the SA line would swing the game

[Vacamion]

 

Kyle Sinkler getting beasted is costing England here...

 

 

 

[Jaspa]

I don't understand why they kick it up so often, in a game where possession is so important.

[Izzy]

 

Impressed with how calm SA look under pressure here.

 

Fascinated by the body language. England look fvcked.

To try and catch it and gain territory

It doesn't work out like that 9/10 though

[Sly]

That’s it I’d imagine!

Can’t be arsed to double back on my posts but I did say last week that the Saffers win against France felt like our win against the All Blacks 4 years ago.

 

Emptied the tank mentally and physically to early!?

 

Meh, shite sport anyway 

[Sly]

Meh, terrible performance by South Africa but they’re through. 

[st albans fox]

Their replacement props destroyed ours - as simple as that 

[Trav Le Bleu]

Because Borthwick failed to respond to the SA subs, so they gained momentum.

 

Bad management.

[Mike Oxlong]

Played above expectations but failing to take some good chances cost us in the end 

[leicsmac]

That was closer than I thought it would be. Ah well.

[Vacamion]

 

That was unbelievably brave from England and massively unexpected that we would come so close

 

Lost it at the front row of the scrum after the replacements.

 

Well done the saffers.

 

 

[Jaspa]

They were in that until the horn went off and all the subs happened, then it was non-stop punting up field while getting battered physically.

 

South Africa physically the superior side, England run out of steam.
