I feel pretty bad.
Just want to say, congratulations to South Africa, the best team won.
I dont understand the decision on Cuerto's "try" - but overall the Boks were dominant in the line out, more disciplined in open play - they deserved to win.
I'm proud of our boys to get this far... we lost to same great champions tonight.

And for balance, England could have easily got a yellow card at the end of the first half for persistant penalties...
It was a close game, it swung on a few decisions and the Boks dominance of the line out... we cant come out of the game with any real complaints. If the Try had been given it could have been different, but if the yellow card had been issued it could have been worth more than 4 pts to the Boks... it was a fair result.
I said you wouldnt get another 36-0 and you didnt. The Green pack was very strong and held their own against us and was stronger at times, Percy stood up to the pressure and kicked his goals brilliantly.
Im typing through tears... until 2 weeks ago England Rugby was considered a joke... we arent a joke anymore. But the best team throughout the whole tournamount took the trophy.
