[QUOTE="SaintsFan_Webby, post: 143098"] Samoa were a disgrace in the second half. South Africa started ripping them to shreds, so they responded like a petulant child not getting its own way, throwing boots in recklessly and hitting anything in green whether they still had the ball or not. Had to agree with Stuart Barnes for once as well, it was poetic justice when Lima had to go off injured - leave that sort of 'tackling' to the NFL. Such a shame after they aquitted themselves so well in the first half. The disallowed try was the correct call. The Samoan player was bound onto the ruck and in front of the ball. He can't then pick it up off the floor from behind him and dive over. Samoa may have more confidence than England's current side in the wide open spaces, but the way their pack folded once the set-piece was really challenged will be a massive boost. Saffas look very dangerous, and should stroll past England on Friday. Anyone else notice how their backs suddenly clicked into gear once Steyn came on for De Villiers? Stick with that combination and they'll walk past England's rag-tag XV. [/QUOTE]
