Yep......Ireland folded again in the quarters.
For all their talk they havnt even made a semi yet. Can't wait for their tour next year.

We played 4 teams who were a real challenge….lost to one, beat three others by a total of 3 points. Lost to Ireland by 5 points. So cumulatively we lost to those top 4 teams by 2 points.
That despite having a net 30 minutes more against 14 men
Which makes the adjusted score minus 10….case closed. But do watch your blood pressure Dave.
See Saffex, this Mozart Law means he doesn't have egg all over his stupid, fat and pompous face,
We lost on handicap.
LMAO!
"If" Marx had played, the Bok lineouts would have been much better.
Suck it up Moz you are making your name mud
Here is a little note for you - you only need to win a game by 1 point to actually WIN the game
Are you under the impression that cumulative winning margins actually count for something?
You are starting to sound like Doos
Don’t go there Moz, I know you are hurting that Rassie has completely proved you wrong but trying to devalue the victory is just embarrassing
People say the Boks lose lots of games, but so do the other top ranked teams. The Boks are winnng enough to be ranked number 1 in the world, in addition to the world cup.
I read somewhere that Neinaber is leaving with a 70% win record
The loss of out #1 hooker certianly gave the opposing sides a better chance of knocing the Boks out in the semi's and final.
Hats off to the Boks for ploughing through and winning under those circumstances.
I am not a Fourie fan but he played extremly well in replacing Bongi even if he was overmatched (in weight and height) and his lineout work was something else.
A great performance none
the less.
Yes Fourie did a job a good enough one to win it but there is no doubt that his presence negated our potential scrum dominance with NZ only having 14 men
With a real hooker we would have eventually squeezed the NZ pack into submission and scored more points in the process
Not sure how that maths work Moz, the World Cup or any comp is not counted on net score rate like cricket. It is knock-out rugby.
Winning by 1 point in 3 games have knocked years off my life, that I can't be happy about. But 2 world cups in a row, not sexy. We WON!!! The All Blacks had a chance to win it twice and looked dangerous with ball in hand. We knew it was going to be defence against attack
On Deon, don't forget that Whitelock and Brodie are one of the best line out players and competed against Matfield back in the day. It was always going to be hard to win all line outs. Fourie lost 4 out of 10, not the best, neither the worse.
Still, he also add a ton of value over the park.
The bench and squad was well managed. The guys didn't perform 100% through out. Sore and tired bodies. The only player that had an amazing was Pieter Steph, played every minute in the knock out and never looked like fading in the final. Wish the rest of our players had his engine, especially his size.
Man, those hits of his were massive
Ugly Great win, Bokke!!!
Moz is hurting - he hates the fact Rassie has proved him so wrong and that there is no coming back from Rassie’s amazing record of 7 to 1, a RC, a Lions series and TWO WC’s and back to number 1
Rassie you genius
Best Bok coach ever - by a country mile
Hardest route to winning that WC ever - take a bow Rassie - Rassie for president with Kolisi as his vice
King - I’m guessing Jordie Barrett is still having nightmares that PSDT will come hunt him down
What a performance that was. Now those are what you call big physical dominant tackles
None of this powder puff pansy shit
