Wales v S Africa

I'm happy to say that on today's showing so far at half time, England have nothing to worry about whoever they play next week.  Compared to yesterday this is really poor rugby.

Agreed. A rather uninspiring, bland game.

18 kicks each side says it all .... it's 'hit and hope' rugby.

GO BOKKE!!!

(still..a rather dull game so far..)

Power play by South Africa. Cancelling out any free flowing rugby. I fear for Wales here, I think they all look a little tired. Have had some tough games.

What a bloody awful match this is 😒

The sheer strength of the South African forwards is amazing. Wales are finding it hard to make any ground except by speculative kicking

I don't recall England looking tired after playing Australia and the All Blacks! I think they might qualify as tough games ;-)

To be honest , I'm quite surprised Wales have not worked on a different game plan for this game , South Africa , had 6 forwards on the bench for the Japan game and played a forward based game and they are doing the same today 

think South Africa will just grind out the win

There's a lack of heart in our (Welsh) play.

I must admit, I have stopped watching it.......a bit of a grind, with not a lot of "Wow".

Don't forget England had a tough game against France cancelled. Due to the Typhoon. Extra down time.

Just my observation about Wales.

Two passages of going through the phases -  two tries.

Funny old thing.  Keep the ball, get over the gain line and you can score.  Who knew.

Stop kicking away possession

I think I would be happy to bet on a double next week.  The All Blacks will hammer Wales and England will hammer S Africa.

Well before the weekend, a lot of Welsh fans hoped to be playing NZ next week - and it's happening!

SimonHendy lol, best comment I've seen.

I fear we've seen the final already. England vs South Africa will not be as pretty as the New Zealand game was.
