Irish strong.

Great NZ first try.

I'm a butter chicken and madras sauce chaser down plus a bit of red diesel. Hoping to make the second half!

I think nz have it.. they won’t be troubled by Argentina so it’s them through to the final.

Dammit, we had our chances to win that.

I am away to find a darkened room to lie down in.

Gutted with the Wales result.

gutted Ireland couldn't get to their first semi. Good refereeing and match winning save from Barrett

The Puma’s were a surprise but good luck to them.
NZ v Ireland, what a match!!! 39 phases to try and steal it back, great discipline from both sides in the end.

Two southern hemisphere teams in first, that didn’t go to the playbook.

I’d love to see a Fiji upset tomorrow morning. England don’t deserve to be in the 4 based of their performance.

Play ugly and win. Come on

All Black/SA final then.

All Black/SA final then.

Yep, it's becoming a ritual. Cheer for the Wobblies until they exit, then default cheer for our (not so) little brothers the Kiwis.
Although this year I had the Irish to barrack for for a little while.

Was a great game. Was fortunate to be there. Went for supper in the Port after the England game to see the French one on the big tvs.. Atmosphere was great up to the point they lost then everyone mooched home to their various digs.. Caught the 0532 train from Marseilles to Nice and I’m proud to report that there were England supporters full of “refreshment” getting on the 0515 tgv to Paris…!

 

[Rab]

I do believe I called that in posts #3 and #7. Although I would have preferred an Ireland/France final.
Well done SA.

 

[bigleonski]

Ah but for a red card. The game has gone soft in my opinion.

Well done SA. Sadly another 4 years of gloating to follow.

 

[Rab]

Who was the only team to beat them ?

 

[hopefulkiwi]

Well done SA. We left points out there,we had the chances we didnt take them
