Jerusalem posted:Last half was so much better than the first one. I can't understand how England could have looked so good last week and so ordinary this week, I guess they poured everything they had into beating NZ. They couldn't bully the bok forwards like they did the kiwis then they didn't have a plan B. A problem they had in the 6N mind.

I got on my flight at 18-12 and by the time I’d figured out how to connect to inflight WiFi and paid my $6 it was all over. Well played boks and well played delta.

tarbrush posted:I think they just didn't manage their nerves. Which is unlike them as a side and as individuals, but that's what world cup finals can do to you. England do really well when they get a fast start and keep a team on the back foot. SA didn't allow them to get their game going and were constantly pressuring them in defence so England were forced out of their normal structural play and they tend to not cope very well in those circumstances.

Yeah. But I think at this point England are good enough that you have to just tip your hat to South Africa and acknowledge that keeping England on the back foot for 80 minutes is really loving hard, and they did it.

Julio Cruz posted:so when do you draw the line? there's no time limit to advantage specified in the law TBF, most teams have the wherewithal to try a shot to nothing like a cross field or chip through or something rather than just ineffectively trucking it up for two dozen phases in that situation.

Vaders Jester posted:That's pretty much the problem with the law. It's entirely discretionary and if a team is in the 22 it's basically until they score or gently caress up which seems pretty dumb. then change the law, I have no problem with that but complaining when the law's enforced as it's currently written is pretty dumb

kecske posted:hmm not liking this tbh You wouldn't, your first reaction was to post "at least its not Wales" and then when a welsh fan points out England is insufferable when they win you pout. Frankly other than maybe Japan (and obviously Wales) I don't think I would have supported anyone else over SA. I have three black South African friends and the first black captain is a big deal for them and the fact that they won the world cup with him leading them is a big deal. I'm really glad they won for that reason, and they also just played really good rugby. That being said, English fans like you and the other guy generally make it really easy to enjoy seeing them lose. Kitchner fucked around with this message at 12:42 on Nov 2, 2019 |

South Africa played great. Their rush defence was amazing and England couldn’t handle it. England looked knackered and Ben Young’s was Bad Ben Youngs.

The problem is that inside the 22 a penalty should be worth 3 points to any team in the world. So when a team has advatage you have to think advatage will be over when they score something. On a practical level I don't know how you could change the rules to make it not subjective.

Set number of phases, if the team with advantage opt to take a penalty within those set number cool, if not advantage over?

SA have broken the curse of losing in the pool stages too though even if England had won, it would have been the first side to win the WC without winning all of their matches.
