[RWC2023 QF4] France vs South Africa (15/10/2023)

[Ospervat]

I'm still trying to work out whether the SA subs were lunacy or inspired.

There’s a method in the madness

 

[ncurd]

France have played against the ref today but they keep coughing up the ball too often.

 

[Jimbo]

How is that not sealing off literally flopped over his tackled team mate.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Etzebeth has so blatantly knocked that on at the breakdown.

 

[Ddanno]

Ugh.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Got to set up and go for the DG

 

[ncurd]

O'Keefe you ducker.

 

[IT157]

Felt like France were the better team.

Epic game.

 

[saulan]

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!

 

[Ospervat]

Well done France. Well done SA.
A pity there had to be a loser.

 

[AlRums]

These A/B quarter finals have been fantastic

 

[IT157]

So much for Northern hemisphere dominance....

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Well, questions need to be asked about the mental fragility of NH sides. Every 4 years the NH as a whole bottle it.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

So much for Northern hemisphere dominance....

I mean when England win it will be NH dominance

 

[Gavin]

Jeez. England the only Northern Hemisphere team in the semi finals

Thought South Africa got some 50/50 calls

 

[saulan]

Well done France, an amazing game. It was a great performance and everything was left on the field. So tough to have a loser after that game. They deserved it as much as we did. Massive game.

The hangover will be worth it.

 

[Grizwald]

Shame for France. The bigger shame is only England carrying thr touch for the southern hemisphere now.

 

[IT157]

England the only unbeaten team left in the tournament.

Got further than France...

 

[Zootalaws]

Felt like France were the better team.

Epic game.

If they were the better team, they would have won.

It's not rocket surgery.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Wow. I really hate when post-match chat is just about the ref.

But **** me, O’Keefe has handed that to SA on a plate. That breakdown knock on from Etzebeth in the 78th minute is going to be torn apart over the coming days.
