Tournament winners are likely to come from that game. 50 levels above anything else so far In terms of a quality. And what an atmosphere. Even better than S 6.
I hope Ireland roll over for Scotland and Wales beat Australia. I wouldn't mind a miracle in the France, New Zealand and Italy group but you can't win em' all. It's a shame England have had such an easy group as the quarter final will be a massive step up. Onwards and upwards but I disagree with your opinion. It was the best game so far but I don't think we've seen the winners.
Fair point. NZ & France are going to be dangerous. Hope it comes down to the best team rather than a refereeing decision.
Was a very good game, best of tournament so far, although I thought Eng v Arg was equally as enjoyable but for different reasons. I'm most impressed with France though, think they will take some beating on their own patch.
It was a top quality and fairly brutal game, tbf Ireland deserved the win, the Boks try came from a 2 yards forward pass...Ireland had a lineout problem early on that they got around, but S. Africa did a workround to make it a scrum based game that Ireland struggled with near the end. A tremendous test match, whether Ireland would win if they meet again I'm not sure.
Really enjoyed the game. As a plastic paddy, who recently got his Irish passport, I enjoyed the result as well. Could have been a different story if the Springbox had a decent goal kicker.
