Rugby World Cup 2023

It's interesting rather than enthralling. Be interesting to see if England can maintain the level of intensity and whether SA can settle or not.

There was more ball through hands on strictly.

SA are still rattled.
Game plan working for England but you sometimes wish Farrell would trust running it rather than kicking every time. Even up in their 22.
Gave up great possession there.

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

and that's sometimes debatable

There have been a few harsh calls alright.

England shading it by neutralising SA pretty well.
SA seem to be getting more settled in the last 5-10 minutes as England have dropped the ball a few times.

Even with my limited knowledge of the rules of this game, I’m starting to think this NZ ref may perhaps favour seeing NZ play England next week rather than SA.

There’s be a few dubious decisions already. That last obstruction one being a prime example.

However, great performance from England. It’s not pretty but the semis are all about winning.

Wasn't expecting us to be leading at half time. Can't imagine New Zealand are sat watching this with any level of concern. Be great to get a try or two.

Really struggling to take to union. Most of the points coming from kicking it between the posts from 50 yards away

No need to think too far ahead is there really, just remember the Welah valleys, the Irish fields and the Scottish mountains and lochs will be full of more water tonight if England win this

English Rugby fans will be shaking like Shitting dogs for the next 40 mins.
