    South Africa have comprehensively beaten England. Expected England to win tbh.
    In a way, this puts Wales' performance into perspective, the Welsh should feel extremely proud.

    England got done by a really basic ploy to win penalties by turning or collapsing England's scrum, made for grim viewing

    England and South Africa both won their semi-finals in a similar fashion.
    Strength, brutality and the basic ploy you mentioned.
    South Africa won their previous wc final against England in 2007 iirc, using similar tactics. S A have now won the W C three times, and this year is the first time they have scored any tries in the final.
    Attacking rugby seems to go out of the window whenever most teams reach a W C final.
