Great performance by Wales, they deserve a lot of credit for this performance against all odds..Boks fortunate and have to reassess...like England they need a proper attack coach...but I don’t think they will change the way they play...

Comfortable win for Bok team that continues to perform under their potential...we should do so much better, this Bok team is potentially one of our best ever..we will not win away from home against top teams..

Most emphatic Bok win over ABs since 2009..I am tempted to say they are not a great but they have caused us so much pain over the years that I will just enjoy the victory ..credit to JNienaber for developing arguably the best defensive system ever..

What a performance by the Boks, this is what I expect of this group of players.we currently have so much talent and we should expect to win every game …Willemse adds another dimension at 10…was a privilege to be at Twickenham

Btw, as an aside, David Flatman needs to commentate every rugby game from now until the end of time. The insight he gives about scrums, lineouts etc is unparalleled. Turns what many would otherwise think is dull into 1800kg chess boxing.

Fair’s fair. We give French TV directors a lot of grief… but this angle was MIA until after the conversion. #JustSayin

Exceptional performance by Ireland, 4 tries to 1 and they more over the line another 4 times…and it’s not finished yet..France’s attack looking very predictable and with very little variation..not sure Ramos good enough at this level

Sad to say but Wales really offers very little..can’t see them winning a game in 6 nations..Scotland should be disappointed not to be further ahead

Brutal day for Springboks, when ABs are in the mood and turns it on, nobody can live with them…the skill level and athleticism are just in another level..not one of the SA backs will make the AB team..we have too many poor athletes in our team..Bongi, Mostert, Wiese

Terrible Bok performance, lots of effort but so one dimensional…lucky win..very difficult to see how we can progress past QF..in fact Scotland game looms large…several stalwarts looking past their best…well done Argentina you outplayed us comprehensively and should have won

Very strange selection by Springboks picking 4 scrum halves but only 1 specialist nr 10, Libbok, who is the only recognised place kicker in group of 33…simply makes no sense…

Never thought I would see the Boks dominate the ABs so brutally..massive statement..Esterhuysen, Willemse and Canan probably now starters…AB bench not good enough…

Springboks defense is not always perfect, but they work so hard for each others to fix it. Look at the PSDT, Sya and Wiese effort, their urgency to be in the place to be. Then 14 players in 30 m, effort of Faf and KLA not only denied Sco an easy try, but they regain possession.

Very clear KICK RETURN STRATEGY by the Springboks vs France, never kick it straight back. Receiver counterattacks, 1 phase with forwards off 9, to give time Kolisi or PSDT to get in position to chase and put pressure on up & under in the open side. #FRAvRSA #RugbyWorldCup

Same situations from lineouts, 2 completely different ways to defend it, with and without Curry. With and without #desire #urgency and #hunger to stop the #Springboks #ENGvRSA #RWC23

strange selections.. never in the history has an international rugby team been selected without at least a specialist reserve 2, 9 and goal kicker on the bench. Boks picked their team for the WC final with not one of the three specialists on the bench..clever or stupid?

#RSAvAUS #TheRugbyChampionship #Springboks attacking shape, 1-4-2-1 •⁠ ⁠PSDT and Siya wide channel •⁠ ⁠⁠pod of 4 off 9 •⁠ ⁠⁠pod of 2 off 10 or 9, depends the way they play the first pod •⁠ ⁠⁠props are not allowed to play out of the 15m to save lots of energy
