Yes absolutely. I do think Japan will tire in the second half and SA will have more opportunities. Whether they can convert them into points is another matter.

SA bench stronger than Japan's.

I'd say Wales v SA is too close to call.

NZ slight favourites against England, but I do think whoever wins that semi will win the cup.

. £50 returns £114 so odds of slightly better than 11/10 next weekend stick the whole lot on a double New Zealand and South Africa

Agree, _othas; on form, should be Wales (having won last 4 encounters vs SA); on the basis of today: who knows...?

NZ vs Eng should be a cracker of a game

Faf de Klerk.

Cobus Reinach is a much better player in my book.

Fasf is prett good at bringing down huge opposition forwards. He's totally fearless.

With all due respect to the fantastic Welsh rugby team France were pretty clearly the better team on the field on the day. I feel very sorry for France since they were mugged by Craig Joubert against NZ in the past.

Despite SA winning the Japan game SA are fuming over the number of dodge calls made by Wayne Barnes including a no arms shoulder charge made on Handre Pollard which repeatedly shown on the big screen with not even a penalty.

Will be sidelined for a bit I think...

After the Joubert incident at the last RWC, for him it was a downward spiral after that.

i don't see a problem with it.... and I don't see why the french have gotten so upset!

if the french lad hadn't done it.... we wouldn't be mocking him! and no one is saying it isn't a red!

... but not really in the spirit of the game, and not very professional .

The red card isn’t being questioned, it is questionable to take the piss out of the situation couple of hours after the match...

Feels a little distasteful ...

I think the problem the French have is with a knock on just before the incident which was missed.

Also some of the decisions made after the red were questionable.

But no doubt it was a red.

Jaco is poor and this is coming from a Southern African.

The All Blacks have won 19 out of the last 20 matches refereed by Owens. The Boks have lost 9 out of 10 marches refereed by Garces

The SA excuses have started already

I am quite sure that if Wales had a powerful scrum that had the opposition scrum disintegrating before it they would also question why the only scrum penalties and free kicks were awarded against them.

I'm sure if Wales had a successful lineout steal they won't be happy if the opposition were allowed to throw the ball in so skew that the scrum half could catch it.

Excuses? I think all supporters want after spending a fortune travelling to a country to support their team is a fair contest. Not one determined by obvious bias from a referee. World Rugby themselves have admitted that this referee does not meet the standard so it is curious that he has been chosen to officiate this match.
