That’s

10 Men’s World Cup knockout games
8 Women’s World Cup knockout games
3 Olympics

Just in case anyone’s keeping count.
Geez the Irish are really unlucky. A few days ago they were laughing at us and we were angry about our performances. Now Ireland is out and we are through to the semis. You really have to feel for the Irish
Do we though?
Laugh it up fuzzballs.

Seriously???

Somewhat hypocritical, given SA rugby's history of ref bashing (enabled by Rassie, of course).
Seriously Boet, the French are still all over the place after their WC knockout. Du Pont still bitching, talking about revenge.

So sweet to see the Saffers lose because they were too busy moaning at the ref.

Luckily our midgets lost the plot. Otherwise Torc would have flounce again.

Typical bloody Saffers. Relying on cards to win again.

Well done though - I doubt that was expected after the rough pool games.

Just to repeat what a bunch of c**ts the BBC have been. Advertising some swimming bollox at 1/2 time in the Fij/Aus game so we missed part of the 2nd half. Clipping the bronze medal game. F**king QR codes blocking the viewing. W*nk commentary.

Should hand sporting coverage over to the professionals.

Pay £4 for discovery. Massive complaints during Japan, it's going to be pants again this time.

4 missed tackles in one play is going to be a dead cert game loser in 7s.

Awful lot of penalties and now a mauled try for the French prop. This looks awfully like the real thing.
