Namiba 0 - 87 South Africa
Now that's how South Africa should have played in the Fiji game. Great passing and smart plays.. It's the first time in the contest that we've seen SA play like the Springboks of old.. I'm really looking forward to SA against one of the better opponents which should be better than the AU-Ireland match.
Congrats to Bryan for breaking Joost's tries record

Re: Rugby World Cup 2011
Although Australia won 67-5 against the USA they are showing some signs of instability and definitely no signs of their status as favorites to win the contest.

Re: Rugby World Cup 2011
Yes for me l still think South Africa are the team to beat as l am still not convinced by the All Blacks or Australia and England have to up there game hugely even to make the semi's.

Re: Rugby World Cup 2011
We should remember that there are very few 'easy' games these days. The lesser teams have all the incentive to put 110% into their matches against the 'big guns' in order to 'go out with a bang' whilst the top teams need to win well but avoid injuries and match bans to their key players. History has shown it takes a combination of skill, tenacity and a degree of luck to progress to and win a world cup final and I think this time around will be no different. When it comes to the knock out stages, anything can happen.

Re: Rugby World Cup 2011
I wouldn't take much notice of how a team performs at this stage anyway. You don't want to be playing your best now, it's a long tournament.

Re: Rugby World Cup 2011
I'm trying to think which group of players are stupider. Football players or Rugby players.
Watched football yesterday, and some of the stupid things the footballers were doing, which you knew would result in a freekick/penalty, I shook my head and wondered, "Why do it?".
Now watching Scotland vs Argentina, and simarly, two scottish players offside, they must know it will result in a penalty, but they still do it.
Maybe it's the excitement factor..I just don't remember being that excited, heck, even sex wouldn't stop me being careful.
Maybe it's me
