The scrums are a real worry. Not a great first half. Still, 6 points isn't the world as you say, so let's hope we get into gear.

Willo called it right. No doubt he will be called a traitor! England were dreadful. To say "they played their final last week" sums up why we seldom win anything.

Damn, well played South Africa. England just couldn't find a way through. Not at our best, or reflective of our tournament as a whole really. It's a shame Wales didn't beat SA in the semis!

South Africa were the better side. Maybe England bottled it, but that's part of the game. The team that produces when it matters are ultimately the better side.

Rugby for the brutal. My beef with Rugby is the constant stoppages and constant rule changes, penalties for practically anything. We needed a ref who would encourage open play. The Japs were outstanding to watch but in the end muscle wins.

At the end of the day if you make it to the final anything can happen, and it wasn't our day. Disappointing result considering the tournament as a whole.
