C'mon You Tigers! Don't tell me the result! Will watch later. If England were playing France at tiddlewinks at the Sorbonne I would support them. As for all the guff etc i just have a very convenient off, volume etc Don't want anthems, war dances, etc. Certainly no Mark Poobottom

The tackling during the entire tournament has been pathetic from all sides

Well done SA. Absolutely stuffed us, especially in the front 5.

Not optimistic here. England must take the initiative. Kruis for Lawes is probably a good idea.

Hit them hard (but fair) England. Mistake from Lawes and Pollard early.

Will have to be changing the drip feed from coffee to alcohol soon. For both teams I hope it comes down to a piece of brilliance rather than a Don Fox moment. RL fans will know this. One of the first major sporting events I saw Leeds v Wakefield. Even as a Leeds fan, I was sad for Don Fox. Good...

What? Explain that one again to me. The best 2 teams are in the final.

or Gareth.

Is there any reason why England or any other team in the Universe would be in the market for a Welsh Online supercomputer?

Never, I say, Sir, never. Large doses of caffeine, alcohol, nicotine and a few other minor substances have served me well over the years. I shall not betray them now when the hour of doom s at hand!

I hope it doesn't come down to a stupid blunder a la Don Fox, (RL), a refereeing mistake, a foot which is perhaps a few mm on the line. A red/yellow card for either team would be disastrous. George gifted NZ 7 points. Can't afford to offer up that. Same as the try the USA got against us. No...

I too had some sort of inkling of it a) not taking as long and b) not having so many teams in it. You probably only had 8 "nations" who had any chance of winning it (back in the day)and only 5 have done so.

I think everyone would be up for it, if it were "just an autumn international". Why is this any different? An exhibition? Anybody who thinks that does not deserve to wear the jersey, red or black. Two of the best teams in the world are playing for a bronze medal. Got further than Australia...

My prediction is that England are better than SA in every aspect. The only way England can lose this is if the grunts screw it up. England comfortably for me by 10 points or more. As will England.. That goes without saying in any rugby match does it not. Duh. SA only have muscle and I don't...

The talk all seems to be about Joe, May and Mac. What about Watto? No mention given to him. I'm a big fan but again he's not the best in defence. It will be solidity closer to the scrum that counts. I'd be more than happy if EJ started with the same team. Eng must at least hold their own in the...

I'd probably go with the same starting line up tbh. bearing in mind that I thought Slade had a poor game v Aus. If Eng try to outmuscle SA. they will lose. Otherwise I cannot see anything other than England. They have the best back row in the world. They've looked quick and sharp. They are not...

Well quite. I am old enough to remember when the ABs lost for the first time in this country. That's all history and counts for bugger all. The way to beat SA is to out-think them, not out-muscle them. It has always been so.

Sorry, but I thought that the "play them at their own game " tactic was wrong (Gatland?/Wyn Jones?). Look at the Wales try. 'bout a zillion phases come to nought. Go (bravely) for a scrum instead of 3pts and score a simple first phase try in the corner. Scores level. Then revert to a kicking/arm...

As a neutral, I think SA will have too much power up front and more ingenuity behind the pack. Apart from Wyn Jones, I see little real talent in the Welsh front 5 and fear they may get steamrollered. Hope not. Would love to see an all NH final. Then seeing England beat all 3 major SH nations in...
