Rugby union?

Except when it comes to sport, South Africa are an absolute powerhouse able to compete on the world stage. Your comment still makes no sense. I guess you just felt like having a dig at two nations that you deem inferior.

Except, as I've already explained, I was talking about the world standing of the nation's. Neither is an international powerhouse hence their need to try and be Jonny big balls on the pitch.
 
Wales using the Pro 14 line out to good effect perpendicular just not down the middle. Didn’t see much of it yesterday. I hate elite refereeing where they have their own special bull poo versions of the laws. You see all the scrum halves with hands on the ball at rucks for an age bouncing to try and get a penalty. When the refs should just say ball out 3 seconds after they have both hands on it.

At least we’ve seen a few forward passes called.

Quite! Couldn't believe how bad the put ins at the scum and line outs have been and yet are allowed.

Nothing too scary from either team, bit of excitement from the Welsh left wing and SA centres but that's largely it.

If England perform to the same level in the final we’ll absolutely crush either of these teams. They’re completely devoid of creativity. Terrible match so far.

2 teams who just play anti-rugby to be honest. SA were the same against Japan just did nothing and soaked up the pressure till they wore Japan down with physicality. Whether it’s the injuries mounting up for Wales or what but they’ve shown zero attacking quality since the Aussie game about a month ago!
 
Have I got selective memory or are the box kick chases from bit sides terrible compared to what England do? We're seeing a few people chase the ball, but I seem to recall England having the entire team move up with the chase to really gain territory.

And as I said, the sports teams are already powerhouses and don't need to compensate for the fact that they're from smaller nations because they're already titans of the sport they're playing. The status of their country overall doesn't matter. They're both one of the best rugby nations in the world.

And yet they were acting like angry children...
