    Scrums are beginning to be decisive now for SA (right or wrong).

    SA looking like us earlier this year when under pressure. Pushing passes, aerial game flakey

    The ruck work from England has been superb

    Similar to the Semi Final in 2019 in that respect.

    @booboo It confounds me how anyone thinks it’s entertaining. I know the rusted-ons love it it but the game increasingly resembles grid iron. Players too bulky. All about power. No poetry. No finesse

    It's also dumb rugby from SA when chasing a 9 pt gap to reach the Final

    Wet weather rugby is entertaining IMO. More than one style is why rugby is a great game.

    This is the exception to the rule though. there were 4 great games last week - 2 all time great games.

    Even though some of the England kicking has been rushed and even desperate at times, they have kept the Boks out of their half. The Boks have really struggled to counter the kicking game.

    Yeah England need to be careful with their handling. Their scrim may come back to bite them.
