Lol 😂
It won't be England they were gifted their place in the Semi and now hopefully will be booted out

If the ABs make final and it is against Boks, I wonder if they are looking at maybe defence needed at end of game? Not suggesting it is the case, but I just taking guess.
So which team would we have to play for Roigard to be picked? Presumably Namibia?
Well he did get chance a week or back, and perhaps didn't always take best options? As I said I was on forums before Super rugby started this year saying he the man! I still believe it too, but I also recognise that the coaches do tend to lean towrds experience in big game. His time will come, and I suspect he will have a battle with Hotham for the spot in a couple of years.

I'm not a betting man, so no.

Besides, you missed the point. You suggested that just because we beat the Pumas well last time we played, we're certain to do the same again next time we meet (tomorrow). I was merely pointing out the flaw in your logic, giving an example of exactly the opposite happening when our two teams (SA and NZ) last played.
Not so thinly veiled "I know that the ABs will smesh the Argies, I'm just trying to be as humble as Bro and appease the mocker gods" post.
I don't believe in gods of any kind, so there's another theory out the window.

Have to say, it's fascinating to watch the Saffers getting so excited on this match thread as well as their own. It's almost like beating England is a foregone conclusion, and they're already focussed on the final...
You feeling better this morning?
Easy win like I said.

Always that way when one team dominates to such an extent their opposition can't fire a shot.

Guess you don't like low scoring forward games either :think:
I enjoy close games when I’m a neutral, 10-9 would have been preferable

Being good enough to get there is one thing, of course.
Very very yawn
You could play France for 5th-6th place, for the "atmosphere".

It is extremely funny how much the failure to win even a single world cup knock out match has broken Irish brains.

This from the cheerleader-in-chief is a treat:

Can't help but think his personal hell is karmic retribution for all the absurd levels of cringe he subjected his followers to over the previous month or two.

When Stuart Barnes(!) is accurately making fun of you, you know you fucked up. If Ireland or England had put in that display, the praise would be flowing.

It's one long whinge about the atmosphere being "ruined" by the draw, the draw itself, the refereeing, etc etc. Kiwis quite rightly have had no truck with any of this so he's being pissy about the pushback.
