    South Africa look rattled mentally. Making early changes. Very strange game so far. Unexpected.

    England's discipline has been brilliant so far (aside from Farrell)

    Probably for the best.

    Dreadful kick off at the end and why oh why did Steward go to the air rather than just kick it deep?

    The entire campaign was lost on Kyle Sinckler being shit in 5 scrums. Well done mate.

    What an atrocious day of sport. At least the cricket team had the good grace to be shit from the start.

    Gutted. Didn't think there was a chance I would be, but here we are.

    Saffers should be embarrassed we made it that hard for them but it was at least a classic game in the style of the times of my youth when England were bad, where you'd beat us but wouldn't have a jolly time doing so. (Though I think this South Africa team love the mucky victories and free-flowing ones alike.)

    It's a shame that scrums have become such a decisive thing in the era when we've gone fully the other way, as mandated by the prevailing style of the game.

    Oh for Andrew Sheridan et al.

    It was a strange sliding doors moment when England were leading 15-6 where I looked at the betting odds and South Africa were 2/1 to win.

    World Champions.

    The most Skybet would allow you to put on was £2000, to win £6000.

    I didn't even put a pound on it, but I just sensed that fucker would happen.

    In other glorious rugby headline madness news:

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/67197625

    "You won't find a harder working man than Steve and his approach to the game is a little bit like Alan Turing," added the Gloucester winger.

    I don't know if I'm falling into a liberal honey trap here, but I find it incredibly hard to believe that a black South African front rower called an English flanker a 'white cunt'. That said, the saffa explanation is also laughable.

    It's a tough choice, so hopefully whoever wins does so through some sort of controversy and there's a massive chimp out to follow. In the vein of Cheika's after yesterday , and the semi.

    That Kitshoff going to play for Ulster is going to set the peace process back about 30 years.

    It's New Zealand, their entire credo is based around cheating and sneakily trying to injure players. That was completely intentional.

    The stadium DJ, much like all French DJs, needs to be hanged. We just had 'Don't Stop Me Now' during a live lineout.

    Pretty fitting for the tournament to go out with one of those whilst South Africa just grind away at set pieces.

    What a massive waste of everyone's time.

    Load of bollocks. Might as well watch Ngannou getting his arse handed to him by Fury in another non-event.

    I think the worst thing about modern sport (correct or not) is when glorious scores like that get ruled out for some minor bollocks ages beforehand.

    If only New Zealand had converted their try, they'd have won this game 13-12. Terrible kick.
