Re: A ringraziavi, Springboks! (Thanks, Boks!)
A ringrazia vi di cori! (Wholehearted thanks) very nice gesture: the Boks presented a replica of “Bill” and a World Champion medal to the Corsican Rugby body.

France didn't play well. They were terrible under the high ball and then went to sleep in the final 15 minutes. They only have themselves to blame. France played extremely well and few teams could have lived with them for the first 40 minutes they put in. But the Boks had a plan with these high bal...

Re: QF 4 - France vs South Africa - Sunday 15 October 23
Listening and watching podcasts on the game, reviewing it, here is my take. The Boks deserve their victory, but, as the scoreline shows, it was a very close call. The first half was all French, and there would have been no question had the French been in the lead by 3 or 4 tries to nil. But... Ther...

It looks like it was only checked when you raised it in your post. World Rugby agree that it was incorrect and have changed the result. France are now through to the semi finals. Well done Last Line.

Well time to bid farewell to this great competition. The French leave the scene, beaten by a better team, but with their heads high.

Re: Sour Grapes from outer space
Most controversial has been head clashes. Thats also probably the least consistent, we have seen reds, yellows and play ons all from head hits This. At times it looks like players have to avoid tackling the oppo in order not to be pinged, others get only a stern look for a stiff arm hit in the face…

No one can dispute that. But throwing a hissy fit and claiming Fr. was robbed and fans should shut their collective gob is something special, especially from a man who passed as Mr Equanimity before.

I wondered if he had taken a knock on the head at that point... This, and some other "details" could point to some mental weaknesses under pressure.

I don't think I've ever seen a penalty to touch being kicked backwards towards your own goal line. Made I larf. Was this abysmal kick induced by mental or physical stress or both?

Huge game and the best team prevailed. :thumbup: It is a weird feeling. I am not even sad. Not sure I am disappointed. The French tried hard, but the Boks did better and lasted longer. Half the French were spent by the end of the second half, we had emptied the tank. Boks soaked in the early second...
