Default RWC Finals - Eng vs S.A
So the 2 finals teams have been chosen and it's gonna be a rematch!!!!

But the S.A - Argentina game was not a good game of rugby... O well!
To the finals...

I thought the SA - Argentina game was really good. Well, SA was awesome. Every single try was just amazing, good quality rugby. I enjoyed it.

I think it is what you meant... He is an awesome player, runs like a rocket on steroids, and a has wonderful game vision. I couldn't help feeling bad for Argentina, each time they were trying to play and got punished harshly for a small mistake.

I think you will find they are not playing Great Britain.

They are playing England who are English.

Sales of condoms in Australia have slumped

Recent research showed it only takes one Johnny to **** 15 Aussies

Don't tell that Scots that! They hate being confused with the English.

The last two games England (that's the team full of English guys) played were not pretty or even good flowing rugby but they won. Wasn't one of the beaten teams peopled by our antipodean cousins?

Don't expect Saturday's game to be a classic. It's going to nail biting but not one you'll want to watch again and again. And the team that SA played last time is not the same one they thrashed last time. After all, they have beaten two of the favourites just recently.

The Wallabies did indeed bend over - I just hoped they remembered to lube-up

One Aussie is still in there (eddie jones), and that will have to do. Afterall, one has to salvage some national pride wherever they can.

Either way, it will be an interesting final, and it'll good to see how SA handle (or dont handle) the wilkinson factor. The winner will surely be the team who manages to play their stlye of game and not get sucked into playing the others.

It'll be tight and ugly - just as it should be. Both SA and Eng play power rugby.

Unsurprisingly, after bombing out in the Quarter Finals, NZ and Australia are pushing the new laws trialled at Stellenbosch which depowers the scrum, obviates the ruck and makes the rolling Maul collapsable - they're basically making Union more like League.

Thats true, but don't forget that we have Percy Mongomery that has been spot on with all his conversions during the whole tournament... I't going to be a great game!!!

Don't tell the Welsh, the Irish or the English either. We all dislike being confused with one another.

I don;t think it will be graet for any neutrals - I suspect it may be quite dull as a game. Of course it will be different for the English and South Africans who will be willing their team to win.

Brilliant! Wonder when they'll notice and remove it.

England to win the World Cup. It must be true as Wiki says so!

Congrats to SA - not an aweful game, but its always a pity when neither team scores a try as it becomes a competition between the two kickers (both of whom were bloody good!)

Bring on RWC 2010

Even if the final was not so exciting, South Africa deserved it more than any other team in the tournament.
Concerning Argentina, if the semi-finals would have been different - say ARG and RSA facing ENG and FRA and not each other - then in my opinion we would have had a RSA-ARG final.
