[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 152466"] Congrats to Fiji from my side too. Well played, great running with ball in hand. Plus you guys dominated the breakdowns- not something I`d have expected beforehand. Take a bow Mosese Rualini, you were absolutely superb! On the issue of calls missed by the referee- very true. I`m also not very happy with the type of refereeing we`ve seen, not just in the quarters, but actually since the start of the tourney. Some very high tackles- from both sides, but more from Fiji IMO, were missed. When one looks at how that happens, while there have been some ridiculous citings and blatant simulation going on previously, well I don`t think I`m whingeing. I`m just asking for consistency. As for the Bok performance, well the best thing we can say about it is that we`re through to the semi`s. But the fact we`ve now played 5 games, and have been suckered into trying to play sevens in 4 of them, is an area of concern. We`ve only been focused for the pool game against England, and it needs to be sorted pretty rapidly. As for individual Bok performances, well glad to see Butch put up his hand and take control of proceedings after 65 minutes. Better late than never, but at least he`s shown that he can raise his game when it matters most. Juan Smith tried hard as always, and Doctor Doep did very well after only joining up with the side late on Thursday. [/QUOTE]
