South Africa win the World Cup and all their knockout games by a single point. Wow.

Both captains off now. Expecting to see Kolisi back in 10 minutes though.

To think that Kolbe's charge down of the French conversion attempt could well have saved those 2 points. Clearly there was a lot afterwards and it's never just won or lost on one moment, but still...

And there was me thinking the Ireland v New Zealand game last night couldn't be topped in terms of quality. What a spectacle this is.

There's definitely a missed opportunity to date. With #1 Ireland now regularly beating the All Blacks and handling the Boks' physicality, Farrell's been instrumental in that success. Unfinished business here for sure with Farrell and England.

Couldn't resist smiling when I heard Edith Piaf's "Non, je ne regrette rien" at the start of the adverts. When it comes to picking the bones out of that performance, the loss to Fiji and the appointment of Eddie Jones as a whole, I think Australia will be doing an awful lot of regretting.

The Fields of Athenry echoing around the stadium is a thing of beauty.

2 for Dan.

A 69 year wait to beat Australia. Then beat them in the World Cup. That'll do, Fiji.

After England's build-up, a reassuringly committed performance overcoming the numerical odds. It's nigh-on impossible to defend a drop-goal from just over the halfway line. What a weapon England have in Ford's boot.

That's the only reason Crodo's watching. :wink:

Brighton College now represented on the field. :)

Death by a thousand kicks. (Ok, just 8 so far, but it's doing the job nicely.)

George Ford's dropkicking Argentina to death.

George Ford = Howitzer

Yellow card for England inside 3 minutes. Could be upgraded to red....and now red. Not a great start. Now 14 a side within 9 minutes as Argentina get a yellow, possible red. Edit - no red.
