To beat 5 out of the top 6 teams in the world cup is a worthy win-  the hardest draw ever. 

The Boks lost to Ireland without a consistent pole kicker, in a very close game

There were 5 teams with a realistic chance of winning the World Cup - for the first time ever.

The double ranking points are a farce and should've scraped. As we've seen the past four years, it heavily alters the real standings.

Sharkbok piling on the agony for poor Doos and mozzz. 

Maybe poor Doos should explain again why Rassie is the worst coach ever, the Boks the worst team ever and our defence pathetic etc. 

Throw in a comment about "Did Du Toit as well 

Always good for a laugh. HAHAHAHAHA.

Doos has lost it completely. Biggest meltdown ever. Made worse by the fact the side he says he supports actually won the RWC and this has hugely upset the oak. 

Poor Doos! Will he ever recover.!

No Anti from this All Black supporter.

The Boks won the world Cup and fully deserved to.
