[RWC2019][Quarter-Final 4] Japan vs. South Africa (20/10/2019)

[Derpus]

Nah, they're brilliant when done properly.

Yeah when done properly there's no counter - just ain't rugby.

 

[Not Eddie Jones]

We left 3 tries out there at least. Barnes was rubbish. Almost as bad as Willie le Roux. If we don't learn to finish we will have no chance against Wales. If we even win this that is.

You seem to be assuming Wales can score tries...

Score a try, still moan.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Whilst I do think the ABs will win England will at least give them a contest. I can't see the SAffers or Wales doing it.

Hope so. But it's clear ABs have a higher ceiling than England and if they go play that game at pace and speed and execute it well then just can't see England doing enough to stop them, without making errors, which ABs will punish. UnderCurry will have their work cut out tackling everything and slowing AB ball down.

anyway, back to this game Boks look very limited, as do Wales to me in the matches played this weekend.

Japan have been wonderful this tournament. Sad to see them exit.

Crikey Faf is useless

Rolling mauls, cynical play and set pieces are how you win rugby these days

Don't forget kicking possession away at every opportunity. It's much worse to be in possession.

There is a form of rugby that doesn't have forward play, set pieces and tactical kicking. Sounds like you both might prefer it.

South Africa won't have this much turnover possession though next week. Definitely not a great performance. Score is a bit flattering.

Wayne Barnes letting the SAs get away with murder at the breakdown

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Score a try, still moan.

Yeah but Barnes...

 

[Reiser99]

Crikey Faf is useless

However he's probably cemented his place with the try if it was in doubt at all.

And how many men does it have on the pitch?

 

[Jer1cho]

Faf must honestly be the worst scrum half in the tournament. He is absolutely pathetic.

 

[die_mole]

South Africa is too weak at critical positions. I'm really losing hope in cashing in on my bet of them winning it all.

faf and pollard really need to start playing better. Le roux is awful for 99% of the game. Am and DDA seem to only be turned on 50% of the time as well.

Swap ya for Ben Youngs?

ITV commentary singing his praises lol, I wouldn't be surprised if he's given MOTM

 

[McTallshort]

In the semi final against Wales, which side is actually going to attack?

 

[ncurd]

Faf must honestly be the worst scrum half in the tournament. He is absolutely pathetic.

Have you seen Ben Youngs?

 

[Kapa O Pango]

Lol Faf

 

[Derpus]

South Africa have effectively won this by virtue of genetics. Literally just too big. Otherwise they've been pretty average.
