Close but no cigar for England. I tip my hat to the South African team, simply better on the day all round. History in the making.
Rugby World Cup.

I've had an uneasy feeling all week when people were debating where we should have the victory parade
We can't win everything Garry, we need to give the rest of the World hope mate
I wasn't expecting as big a score as that to be honest. That's put a damper on the weekend. Oh well, come on Lewis.

Well, how tense was that . . . Especially in this house, my jersey is green, but Herself's is white !
In so many ways England have been the best team this tournament. RSA haven't been pretty to watch, but somehow managed to get this far, and by some miracle have actually turned up today . . .
Very happy today, but England are still one of the absolute best teams in the world . . .

Discipline or lack thereof was our downfall in the first half. The best team won though.
Indeed mate. The warm-up act is done, now for the big one tomorrow
I thought watching SA play Wales on how strong they were in the scrum could be England’s undoing. Can’t deny how good there defence was. Shame after going all the way to the final not loosing a game, certainly put a damper on the morning.
Tempted Fate, IMO.
South Africa battered England physically, tactically and psychologically. Not pretty rugby to watch, but mighty effective.
