South Africa are experts at eating up the time at the scrums.

France now have that Irish feeling. :( Great game though!

3 SH teams, and England to fly the flag for the NH.

SA played on the edge for the last 10, in the last spell they could easily have conceded a pen 2-3 times for coming round the side or handling the ball in the ruck.

Can't believe no Northern hemisphere teams made the SF. All Southern hemisphere, not a single Northern one, nobody to root for at all.

Couldn’t believe de Klerk kicked that ball away with a minute to go…what ever happened to stick the ball up the jersey and killing the clock.  They were a better side before he came on the pitch.

Brilliant, brilliant game though

France were valiant & excellent losers rather than bottling it which was good to see

Reinach has been a better 9 than de Klerk for ages but missed out because of experience.

Atonio was key, the French scrum collapsed without him and once you're losing that it's so hard to control field position.

SA were braver in their play than France that’s why they won.

The ref gave SA some crucial decisions or failed to see SA infringement.

There is obviously a joke here but I can’t figure it out.
