    Be nice to beat all of the big three Southern Hemisphere teams as well. 

    this was my thought as well. winning a world cup by taking out the aussies, the kiwis and the saffas in succession would be an amazing way to do it

    my favourite stat from today- 28 years since NZ failed to score in the first half of a match
    According to tv tonight the last time NZ failed to score in the first half of a test was 7 years ago - against England.
    Correct.

    The 28 years stat was in relation to a World cup match.

    that does sound more realistic. I was going off of what itv told me yesterday, they either forgot to add in the world cup part or I wasn't paying attention
  • Was about to say that the Welsh won the anthem singing competition but it was a pretty good effort from the South Africans  too!
  • South Africa have peaked for this WC, just like England but Wales won their Q-final because France lost their Discipline and imploded. 
    My Welsh Grandad who died in his early 30's would spin in his grave if he knew I was tipping SA but head over heart for me and the Springboks by 10 points.
    Liam Williams will be a massive miss despite the experience of Leigh Halfpenny.

    The Welsh win the singing despite a strong finish by the Springboks

    Alan Wyn Jones is a legend and I would love to be proved wrong.

  • Well this is going to be a laugh for those like me who suffer from red-green colour blindness. At the very least one of them should wear contrasting shorts. 
    Completely agree, almost impossible to tell for me
  • Not the greatest game so far, think this will be very close 
  • Scrappy so far but think the South Africans look the most likely to get the first try. 
  • After the Lord Mayor show so far but the Prize is immense and neither side have found their A game so far.

  • Based on this showing we should have no problems in the final.........

    Complacent much?
  • Wales gonna be lucky to field a team in the final in the unlikely event that they win this match due to all the injuries. 
  • And another......
  • So dull. So so dull. 
  • Charlton and Wales; Injuries just keep on happening.
  • Dull, old fashioned rugby, no wonder some find rugby boring if this is the dross that is dished up in a semi final of a World Cup. Let’s hope for a spark of inspiration

    Such a contrast to yesterday 
  • WTF do South Africa kick every blooming time? Try running with it for once. 
  • This is a turkey of a semi final.
    The England side will be enjoying watching this match.
  • Is it just me or have there been a phenomenal number of forward passes throughout this tournament?  Both those penalised and those that have been let go.

    Extra time please.

    Not because I'm a sucker for punishment, just because it's an extra half an hour in their legs. 
  • Ah, maybe not. 
  • At last. South Africa run with the ball for once and score a try. 
  • Hard for Wales now I think with the injuries they've had.
  • Wales will score here 
  • If they don't its game over, South Africa managed to drive them back. Absolutely soul sapping hitting a green brick wall like that
  • Welshies back in it 
  • Brave decision, well done Wales
  • Big conversion here
  • Good stuff, well done Wales and ET back on!
