    @crucial I thought it was P-Divvy?

    I stand corrected. Of course.

    This oldtimers takes a few coffees to combat in the morning.

    Yeah - but P.Diddy works better. Can't believe it has taken us this long to come up with it.

    When "Divvy" means total idiot in England I feel you may be wrong.

    France's number 14 did a beautiful break out from his own 22, then stuffed up the last pass (partially due to poor support lines)

    Doesn't matter in the end, France score from resulting lineup. 14-9 France, KTC

    France new jerseys are cool. Boks should be wearing green.

    France lead SA 26-22, SA seem to score in the corner in minute 82, but Owens goes to the TMO. bein Sports terminates feed and starts advertisements

    Feel bad for France. Boks score in the 85th min to steal it at the death

    Commentators had even given the game to France talking about what a great armistice day gesture it would be.Nek minute..credit to the Boks for showing composure.

    @pn don't, take the win as a sign your team got up and fought to the end.

    An ugly win is better than any type of loss.

    The French wing just had to knock the ball in field and then run the ball out at the end. Hard to know how much time was left I guess. France put up a good fight but South Africa did look the better team.

    Really? I thought France looked the best they’ve been in a while. Confrontational at the ruck, working hard in the middle of the field and not shirking the grunt.

    Well done to the Boks though to get it at the death.

    Agreed. France looked better than anything I recall recently. The Boks remain an enigma to me. Something good is definitely incubating, but just when you think it is going to come together they mix in sloppy and stupid play.

    Elton Jantjes not finding the touchline from the penalty just before the hooter was an absolute shocker. Boks massively lucky, by a second or two to get an ongoing crack.

    But then big ups to them for being composed and clinical to get the winning try.

    As I said... a real enigma

    Who was the commentator? Sorry to say, but I thought he struggled quite a bit on his own. Quite late in calling who had the ball.

    The French 14 Thomas butchered a load of chances by seeking contact

    Not everyone has the luxury of Justin Marshall to fall back on for some expert comments

    @mn5 you should see if you can get your Justin Marshall obsession on every thread.
