I want to knock out one of the french TV commentators. I was outraged by his over-confident talking : "Yeah! we are going to win, we're stronger, faster, blah, blah, blah !" grinning from ear to ear. :tsktsk:
Lol same here. Hail to TF1 :D
:eww:

How the fuck did we win that, we never looked remotely close to scoring. Not that France looked like a World Cup Semi Final team in fairness. The last 5 minutes were great (for English fans) but I just hope the final is a better game.

England v Argentina for the final I think.
Oh, and for Scots, to answer an earlier posting i saw (Cant remember what page its on):
Scotland are no longer the comedy option after a very solid display in the Footie Qualifiers yesterday where we humped Ukraine 3-1!

South Africa 37-13 Argentina
Ugh I think I aged 10 years watching that match!
Thank god that for every poor call the ref made, Argentina made an error for SA to capitalise on. Awarding Argentina that try when it was blatantly uncontrolled was extremely annoying.
SA vs England in the final. I think the spanking we gave them earlier in the cup gives us a psychological advantage, but the tenacity that England have shown clawing their way to the end makes me very nervous.

..blatantly uncontrolled..
No control is required, only some sort of pressure on the ball from arms or torso, which it had.

It most certainly did not. From the rear camera view you can see that he was not touching the ball at all.

If anything I'd think it's the opposite, really. Being cocked 36-0 seemed to signal England starting to get their arses in gear and we have improved every game since (except against the French) SA might still be too strong but we certainly can win :D

If the boks don't smash idiots in the final, I fear I can never return to these boards

Can we talk Rugby League instead?
Australia just spanked NZ: 58-0.

This frame by frame thing to try and prove a try has been awarded is retarded. Plenty of times when a breakaway try occurs, the ball never touches the ground.
