    What a fantastic game and Jones got his tactics spot-on. Huge effort from England, especially at the break down and a joy to watch. (Can't believe I'm saying that!)

    England win 19-7.

    What a great start to the weekend.
    Don't worry. It will be worth it for the seethe if Wales beat them in the final.

    Congratulations to England on a massive performance and result. Beating the All Blacks is always a big achievement; to beat them in a World Cup semi-final is very special. New Zealand were looking good too; this isn't a poor New Zealand team. I hope they now win the final.

    It doesn't come easy for me to say, but what a magnificent performance from England this morning. They thoroughly deserved their win, the All Blacks can consider themselves lucky that they didn't suffer a heavier defeat.

    Not many people could see that coming, respect where respect is due and I genuinely wish them well in the Final.

    Indeed. You have to say hats off to England. What a performance that was.

    Hopefully it will be a cracker. South Africa were my tip at the start, personally I think they will be be a bit too strong for Wales today but England pulled one out yesterday so you never know.

    This is going to go either way.

    No clear favourite.

    What a call from the Welsh that was, thought it was the wrong one but they had the confidence and it was rewarded. 16-16

    I've got an each way bet on Josh Adams to finish top goalscorer @ 25-1 paying 7 places.

    Adams recently moved to Cardiff Blues from Worcester due to a Welsh Rugby Union rule that if you have less than 60 caps and don't play for a team in Wales, you do not get selected for the national team.

    Looking good.

    19-16 RSA

    Was hoping for a draw, extra time, sudden death, then penalty kicks 😁

    That’s what I want too. Never seen a rugby penalty shootout before

    Horrible way to lose, such a close game. South Africa monsters in defence, think England will go on to win it now.

    I saw one a few years ago in the Europeans cup (semi I think). Cardiff vs someone (maybe Leicester). It’s a pretty dire way to decide it when non kickers have to take kicks like that.

    Anyway that game today was dire stuff. SA have got to hope they can stifle England otherwise they could be on the end of a hiding.

    Wales have been fairly disappointing in the tournament- first game against Australia was comfortable but other than that they’ve scraped by.

    Heartbreak for Wales, but they pushed South Africa every inch of the way and can be proud of their tournament.

    I think England will win relatively easily, they will outpower SA then capitalise in the last 20 mins, if not before.

    England to win by 15 points next week. The game today was a poor advert for rugby. Tipped England weeks before the tournament started and nothing has changed my mind all the way through. I will be absolutely delighted to be wrong though!

    Eddie Jones’ comeback to Gatland’s needless sour grapes comment is quality. It’s on bbc sport if you’ve not seen it yet.

    Looking forward to to both final games of this Rugby World Cup.

    Predicting New Zealand to comfortably win the bronze.

    Can’t see past England for the final but hopefully the Springboks prove me wrong.

    I could take or leave the game this morning. Pointless match.

    And I think England will win comfortably tomorrow - SA are dull and boring.
