RWC final score?
I’m not a ball sports fan, but with the whole country in the grip of WC fever, if you can’t beat em……..
So what is the score going to be?
Cheers
Fred W B
Should be in "anything else" but can't post poll there?

If only that was true I think the SA's will be too strong and punish our mistakes of which I'm sure there will be. I can't help
thinking relying on Jonny's boot will not be enough, we need to get a bigger points cushion with some tries, we have the power to. But lets
hope they prove me wrong

Well I'm just about recovered from Saturday night
It all depends on how we come out that tunnel Saturday. If those guys really do believe they can do it I reckon they will. The forwards are the best
of ANY team there, people say that we can't win with just Johnny kicking, but the fact is we can! Johnny can win matches and has done time and
again. I'm not saying that we should, but if the game dictates that's the way we should go then Johnny should just do what comes natural
I was fortunate enough to go and watch the world cup in Oz in 2003 and it really was something else. The difference here is that no one gave us a
chance at the beginning of this tournament and we are huge underdogs which may well help us a lot. In 2003 we were the best team in the world and had
been for something like 12 months beforehand. For us to retain the world cup would, I think, be the best sporting moment in this countries history
including the football world cup of 66. I mean to see these guys quite literally put there bodies on the line when they play these games puts the
ponce's who play professional football to shame

I think it'll be close - couldn't want anymore motivation than the final.
But South Africa by 10....

I was reasonably pleased watching the SA v Argentina game last night, the SA forwards didn't look very imposing and the Argies gave them a good
bit of stick. I don't think our pack will walk all over them like we did to the Aussies but it should be a good contest.
IMO it's Jonny's defending that's been his strongest point so far, his kicking's a bit hit and miss with these new match balls
so far but he's been putting in some fantastic tackling. This is going to be the crucial area, if Wilko, Gomarsall and Easter can keep spoiling
the SA ball out of the scrum and ruck we have a chance. If the Springboks can get the ball out to their backs and run at us we're in the poop

No seriously - I think it will be a close game but guess who I hope wins.

Obviously I want the score our way, but if it ain't, I hope it's not the kind of drubbing we got last time
I haven't voted as I usually curse such things!

That's right. The old english tradition - Look for someone other than the team to blame the defeat on.
The boks were clearly the better side. We put up a brave fight though....
Well done South Africa.
