Thermopylae 15,286 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Just wondering if we have any sympathies one way or the other? I know quite a few people up here don't mind the England football team but don't like the rugby one because it's a class issue although most Bears do seem to be above that sort of thing. I used to play rugby and both my teams played in bottle green so it it has to be the Bokkes for me although I'm still happy for the best team to win Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malvern 11,329 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Can't see the safas beating England, still it gives me great excuse to start drinking at 09::00 so I don't care who wins Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

maverick1200 2,710 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I'm English so I'm going to go with England. It's going to be a war. My issue is that Wales seem to be England's kryptonite and South Africa are a better version of them. Plus how much did the Semi Final take out of England.

Its not though, its England and im Scottish. Your argument is like condemning a Rangers fan for wanting celtic to get beat in Europe. I have no issue with the English in general, but they are a rival nation in the Rugby, and historically a bigger rival than SA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying its critical but is a slight advantage when you think of how these teams play, and the chance of injuries in the cancelled game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thermopylae 15,286 Posted November 2, 2019 Author Share Posted November 2, 2019 There you go the Bokkes never lose finals I always wonder if there is a southern hemisphere camaraderie and are the Aussies and Blacks quite pleased today that Webb Ellis is staying down south?
