The way Wales and Bokke played, none of them will beat England. But happy for the Bokke for the win.

The 2 semi’s were very different. The final will also be a different game. In 1995 we scraped through against France and NZ demolished England in the semis. The final was a different game and the rest is history.

That was both boring and tense in equal measure!

 

I'm going to have to pick a side for next week now . . . .

Right, managed to settle down after that. Hectic.

 

So , let’s be clear . Our Boks are in the World Cup Final boys and girls. Be proud and excited. This is a BIG WEEK.

Anyone coming with “ yes but we kick too much and it isn’t pretty “ stories can keep it to themselves this week. There have only ever been max 2 weeks like this before in any of our lifetimes to date, and we going to enjoy it.

 

Bok Family, rest well tonight

Rassie turning this team around to a world cup final is nothing short of a miracle. I think we all need to raise our hat to the man.

 

South Africa have never lost a final and the last one they won was against England. We still have to have our good game.. Let's leave it to the final. I'm excited for next week.

 

Don't get me wrong.. England look really good.. But I'm sure Rassie will have them analysed to the nth degree

Australia will still see the final, except it wont be on the pitch but TV

Australia should have taken a Viagra. At least that would have guaranteed them a semi...

Wales had 69 percent of possession

Quite a stat

Shows the defensive effort of the Bokkies

 

More accurately:

POSSESSION

South Africa - 39%

Wales - 61%

TERRITORY

South Africa - 62%

Wales - 38%

That's the kicking game in a nutshell. Easiest way to keep the ball in the opponent's half is kicking it there. Then capitalise on mistakes.

 

As a stormers fan under toetie and rassie I've seen uglier ways to win.
