    Always a risk when you have to chase it.

    The ebbs and flows of sport eh?  From the most complete sporting performance I think I have ever seen by anybody other than T Woods in the 98 Masters, to a disorganised bunch of muppets in the space of seven days. As disappointing as it is extraordinary. 
    Takes a Scot to tell it how it is.

    Pressure and expectation did for England in the end.

    Pretty embarrassing, if an England football team played like this in a final they’d never live it down.

    Potentially one of the most spineless England performances I’ve seen in any sport. 

    How Daly has stayed on that field is incredible.

    Like the all blacks against us, we've done nothing

    South Africa are not pretty to watch but they are very effective. 
    They had a game plan today and stuck to it perfectly. 
    Eng have been second best all game. 
    Yup, not enjoyable to watch. 

    Did not expect this score at all.

    Not like Scotland will get to a World Cup Final so i suppose you have to get some enjoyment by watching England lose

    Roll on Charlton tomorrow that's what really matters.

    Nah, doing a disservice to SA there.
    They’ve done a job on England, fair play to them.

    But this type of game is the very reason I prefer League.

    could be a bit of a thrashing now if heads go down for the last five minutes. 
    I'd say it's already a bit of a thrashing. We've been pathetic. Simply didn't turn up.

    Bottled it. Looked scared from the start. SA looked confident.

    Probably sounds awful but I’d prefer the Charlton win tomorrow anyway

    Embarrassing. The media should take them apart, just like they would the football team in the same situation.

    He had a really bad game amongst a below average team performance

    I'd rather we'd lost last week than lose like that in the final

    I am half English. I was referring to @Sillybilly's comment.

    Think a few people made the mistake of thinking we could match the Boks physically (me included). They absolutely destroyed our forwards and the panic set in from there. When the backs got the ball they were pretty awful. Youngs and Daly especially. 

    Boks aren't pretty but head and shoulders above us on the day.

    TBF they'd never reach a final. Bottle it before then.

    No they shouldn't. 
    Just like the talentless spineless media shouldn't take the football team apart. 
    Or any team.
