I'm french and my pain is immeasurable. This defeat will haunt me a loooong time before I move on. My frustration is immense .. I thought our time had come.
We have an incredible team, incredible coach, incredible supporters and the world cup is in France.
I think there are a LOT of questionable decisions made by the referee but in the end I'm impressed with the determination Bokkies put into this game.
May the best team win the world cup and let's enjoy a little bit more these amazing final phases we have.
Long live rugby and allez les bleus forever in my heart ❤
I know it won't be of any consolation but there it is: if ntamack and willemse and dupont had been match fit and good to go, i would have bet my house on france
A bit like if Marx, de Jager and Am were fit? Or you forget that BOTH teams were without stars?
@@akashaef1 Marx, De Jager, Am and Mapimpi. SA played the whole tournament without a recognised try machine. Not even someone in the top ten all-time scorers list.
You know you're a beast when your glasses don't make it to your ears.
😂😂😂😂😂😂Now that's funny. Good eye😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Ha ha you noticed that too
😂
😂😂😂😂😂
That Frenchman rather sounds like a South African
Lol.
yes south African born,so obviously still has his accent paul willemse
It's such a pity that Paul didn't stay in South Africa. A guy that would have contributed so much had he stayed. That being said, the Bokke just keeps surprising me. Every game, they show something else. This game was all about heart and determination.
He is an SouthAfrican. He played for the bulls
Half of them are nowadays
The draw for the pools this world cup was an absolute farse. Games like Ireland vs Nz, and Boks vs France should NEVER be quarter final games. Something needs to change.
It was based on where the teams were ranked at the time. Aussie and England have dropped like stones since.
@@ProjectFrugal yes, I understand that, but how do you prevent it from happening again? Something needs to change because this shouldn't happen, it's really not good for the competition.
100% agree! Why WR needed to announce the pools in 2020 is a mystery to me. They didn’t have the foresight to think “now wait. We have 3+ years to go to the next RWC, we need to wait to see how national squads perform!” I mean what’s the rush. It’s not like anyone is going to get cracking 3+ years ago on their pool play management. WR botched this as they botch almost everything they touch.
@@gunputt it is my understanding that the draw will be done later in the future. Won't guarantee a "non-farce", but might help significantly.
On the flipside, we had four incredibly competitive QFs because of the draw, arguably the best weekend of international Rugby ever. If the draw was done "correctly", chances are there would have been four boring blow outs.
Not advocating for it, just pointing out the irony. I think most people care that the best team wins the cup in the end. For me, the fact that these matches were QFs as opposed to SFs, is much of a muchness. But yeah, if there is one team with a legitimate gripe, it is Scotland.
@@gunputtI actually don't mind this draw, because if one want to win the final you still need to win three knockout games in a row. So what difference does it make when these giants clash in the knockout stages?
The semi-finals might not be as spectacular as the quarter finals and the 2 stronger teams might rest a few key players for the final, which might result in another epic game like these quarter finals. I just think that if the NZ vs Ireland and SA vs France games were semifinals the final would be played by tired players and might not live up to what a final should be.
I think that if NZ and SA get to the final after resting some players this weekend, we are in for another colossal match, which will make the 2023 world cup the best one ever and that all because of the lobsided draw.
Paul Willemse doing his best to be sad 😂 but the Bokke in him is kicking crazy
Beast trying not to crack a smile when the fans are calling out Beeeeast😅
🇿🇦🇿🇦
O Keefe gave the worst referee’s performance next to Ireland v all blacks , South Africa and the all blacks are constantly going offside once you get a break on them , how the hell did he miss that intentional knock on at the 5 meter line by Etzebeth when France were 7-0 up , that was a penalty try and a yellow , the refs always give South Africa and New Zealand bogus calls, it’s the same every World Cup , I’m 40 years old watching it from New York , the World Cup referee’s secede the winners not the players, and no one talks about it , it’s a joke!!
The way when he missed the direct head contact to PSdT? From distance, with force, no attempt to lower tackle height, forced player off the field for an HIA. Yeah, he missed a lot.
As much as I Enjoyed the contest between England and Fiji, watching the level of rugby played between Ire vs NZ & France vs SA, has put the fear of god in me about how one sided the semis are going to be.
Ire vs NZ & France vs SA were worthy of semifinals. Will the ABs and the Boks rest players for the semis? Conceivable.
I reckon it'll be close - finals rugby gets different (and England have BMT)
Yes England are going out I’m afraid
Finals footy you have to have full respect for any team by firstly playing your best side. Nothing is a given. From a Abs supporter
I'm a Bok supporter, and there's no such thing. Over confidence is what undid the Irish. ABs and Boks won't make that mistake. Respect for your opponent is very important!
For sure, we can add this year for the top rob french history: 1995, 2011, and now 2023.
you lost fair and square in '95 papa
@@mahlanguism The fact Derek Bevan received a gold watch (for real) from the former SA fed president tells another story... This 1995 edition was unfortunately too connected to politics.
He said it ”everything worked out in our favour” and it did, the bounce of the ball, the little moments of good fortune and the ref.
Really.. the saw the ref giving the French more
Lmao yeah sure the voluntary forward not even noticed
It's a disgrace
Maaan! As a South African that was the longest 5mins of my life 😅
Just wait for 🇦🇷... it’ll be the longest 80 minutes of your life!,😎
Especially the last 2mins when France was look for a penalty,I never knew 120 seconds could be that long.
NZ was behind you 👊🏽👊🏽
Me too😂
As an ABs supporter, I understand 😂 I got a stomach ulcer from our game. I was cheering for the Boks today though.
Both of these quarter finals should have been finals they were EPIC games!
Do rule out England
@@1477wales4 The only thing I don't rule out England for is another humilation like against France during the 6 Nations
It started off with the pool game - SA vs Ireland … could have been a final as well!
Outside if the blowout games … this WC has offered a few gem games between the top 4 teams that could all have gone either way.
Still weird seeing Paul Willemse like this for France. I still remember going to our church in Pretoria, South Africa and seeing him there.
Gutted by the result but very proud of this french squad. One day, all these 50/50 calls and details will smile to this team. Regarding referees, France have to always be 3x better than their opponents to avoid these traps. Pretty sure Galthié can build something big for 2027 by mixing Dupont, NTK, Aldritt, Mauvaka and co + the incredible U20 generation.
@@Krampus5164 Stop spreading lies that just exist in your little brain, would you? Saturday was one of the biggest match ever but also proved France is the most robbed team of the World Cup History.
As a Kiwi, our respect for the north has grown immensly! France and Ireland will get better from this humbling experience too. You learn more from the losses than the wins!
Hey Kiwi, watch out for Argentina 🇦🇷 on Friday and don’t be to relaxed...Los Pumas are going for the glory!
It should be a NZ/SA final. Cannot see anyone of these two teams losing their semis next weekend. So the winner gets to win the cup for the 4th time, how insane is that right lol? 🙈
This should have been the two Semi-Finals.....sorry, not to discredit the other two games but it just did not measure up to the two "big games"
@@ajm6464 Eng out for revenge, can't see it happening, but as an ABs fan I wouldn't be unhappy with an upset.
@@ajm6464 it should be my butt! Final game is 🇦🇷 🏴 Just keep underestimate us! We have Messi, don’t forget. Los Pumas campeón!
Would love to know what Paul was feeling here. He's only been French for a few years, but grew up dreaming of becoming a Springbok. I'm sad for him, that he didn't get to play in the WC and really feel for the French. This game could've gone either way.
Nah not with a team like SA
@@AneesBrennen-lz6ffone point game buddy
@@tomk2688that one point hurts more than 50-0
if there was a different ref SA would of won further,
@@eisbeinGermany I thought the ref was pretty good, he let the game flow. People always blame the ref which is shifting the buck. SA didn't buckle under the pressure in my opinion, but it could have gone either way.
Gutted that Paul was injured and could not play. I think the French missed him.
Much like the Boks missed Marx and Am
@@pauljansen6650much like we missed N'tamack and Marchand also.
Awesome win South Africa from New Zealand...Yeee Haaa 💫🤙🏽🤙🏽
The gap between the top five teams in the world is now within one try. And the difference between the top three is less than a drop kick. That is incredible for the game.
Fabulous match but shows the absolute dogs dinner RWC made doing the draw nearly 3 years ago. We now have Argentina and England in Semi Finals who have absolutely no business being there, while the hosts and World number 1 are knocked out. Games next week will not be anywhere near the quality we witnessed this weekend. NZ and SA Will have target practice next weekend and stroll into the final.
Agree. Who is really looking forward to watching those semifinals? Not a good advert for rugby when you have two uncompetitive semifinals.
That Eben forward and O Keeffe decision will stay in my mind for a long time. We're at 7-0, possible 14-0 that ends with a 7-7.
A good match only takes place with two good teams. So congratz SA.

Stop being so soft 😂as a south africa, we feel for the French... but I guarantee you they would have REVELED IF THEY WON
Not the first time we have knocked the hosts out in the quarter finals. GO BOKKE!
Great game. Being host doesn't give you any given rights to success. It's all the day
well, if they did not break the gentleman's agreement and bribed their way to hosting the WC we would be hosting it so they deserve to be out wished it happened sooner. Well done to the boks see it being us and NZ again but hopefully Argentina can work some magic that would be an upset....
Congrats to the Springboks coming from a Allblacks fan lesshhgoo southern hemisphere final
Love the crowd ! BEEASST! He tries not to smile.
All these Southern Hemisphere imports are making Northern Hemisphere rugby more competitive
Last time the north won the cup was 03, so not really.
As an England fan supporting England, France, Ireland and Wales this weekend, I can only agree 😂
Ireland vs. New Zealand, there were 19 Kiwis on the pitch! 😂
England have Vunipolas and a Tuilagi. Happy to have them but it seems a bit unfair.
@@Funkybassuk It's only Argentina and South Africa that are the only "pure" teams left in the comp no?
@@morris9337 yeah but how many world cups have there been where 2 six nation teams had such a good chance of winning it. The level has gone up
France had only one foreign born on the pitch.
I really feel for France more than Ireland. Theyve always been a good at world cup time. Missed out in 1987 1999 2011.
Imagine hosting 2 WC's and not playing in the final in either of them. Unbelievable.
robbed in the final in 2011. and in the 95 semi.

That's great but with Frances player pool numbers you would expect far more than let's say Ireland or wales.
Thats why im done with rugby. Its too much for me. Im always disappointed. I believe that we will never win this WC. Its fine. Its just not for us I guess.
That dude in the middle…is as French as a bottle of German Gewürztraminer…🙄
To hear people chant "Beast" makes me reminisce.
This 'Frenchman' is pretending to be upset.

I was initially hard on Paul Willemse, calling him a sell out. When in fact with the incredible amount of debth we're currently experiencing in SA, it must be extremely hard to make the team, hence these players go look elsewhere to be able to make a career from rugby, such a shame in a way that they're forced to do so.
3 kiwis in the Irish team, and 2 Japanese in the Japanese team, Australia, England, NZ it is allegiance by the dollar, but they are all professional rugby players chasing the dream and so they should, every rugby player dreams of playing on the big stage and if you can't play for your country of birth you should follow the rugby dream and play for someone who wants you and your skill set
Fans shouting 'Beast" andTendai Mtawarira giving a small broad smile for a second there : )))) So cool!
As England fan got no hope next week. Only victory England can claim is they heavily outnumber the Boks in the crowd.
A red card?
@@ntlearningcan't afford it. We've used all the dough up paying off officials up to now.😂
I think it won’t be as one-sided as you think it will. Englands defence up front is pretty solid and they have a lot of jackaling threats. I expect them to eventually get worn down and lose by around 10-12 points but it won’t be a walkover. However If they can hold the scrum and secure high balls, it might be a tasty game
it'll be a win if they play without embarrassing themselves & the fans too much :/
South Africa once made a statement that scrummaging against england is like scrummaging against a pillow 😂😂😂, brilliant 🤣.
Thank you World rugby for having allowed France to organize the Commonwealth games
Beginning to think World Rugby would not have had it any other way
@@teenchywell you know how to sort that out? Just win your bloody games! Nothing better than proving a conspiracy theory wrong by stuffing up the predictions. So if Ireland & France had made it through everything would have been okay?
Ref misses 2 defining moments: Eben's slap down of Antoine Dupont's pass 😞or Kwagga Smith totally unbalanced last turnover! Really? At this level?
Ref did NOT miss it. You can clearly hear him say “backwards”, which was also clearly evident on all the replays. Also, Nigel Owens has explained that it was perfectly legal.
The Boks didn't boss contact like they usually do but they still won
@@justinafrika7860agreed. Any intercept attempt that goes backwards is play on ,if it had knocked forward it would ve been a penalty
Amazing advert for Rugby, Incredible match from both.
Fantastic french team ! you're not lucky today as in 1995 and in 2011 but your rugby is the most talented, brillant, incredible rugby of the world. You are the best !! You deserve to win the next rugby world cup. Congratulations.
it s not luck, it s anglo saxons referees mafia who continuously steal the game for 30 years. THis is a fake cup and France should stop playing this joke of a contest
But still we 😔French Lost. There's nothing proud about it. We didn't evn reach the Semi Final or thé Final. We were Favorite. I'm done with Rugby and it's lame.
We keep losing every Ruby World Cup Tournament over the last 2 decades
So no. Don't believe we would ever do better in 2027
"You deserve to win the next rugby world cup" I spent my life earing that and maybe leave this world soon without to see that. Bad luck.
@@endapian You must always have hope and see things as they are. The number of people practicing rugby is very high in France. And the results obtained by young people promise a bright future. The quality of the game, the spirit that inspires this sport in France, all of this constitutes a unique cocktail which must inevitably result in French victory. It is obvious. And what will happen for rugby is what is happening with the French handball team. The French will win regularly.
@@christophermichaelclarence6003 Same for me. Im done with rugby... always the same problems... Its too painful.
South African French player gutted losing to the Boks :)
Malbaka was MOM...Went into the game thinking Boks were packing their bags home until that scrum...Crazy stuff.!
Good stuff bokz from a abs fan
When the beast explained what it meant to south Africa wilemse felt it ❤
No wonder Paul is smiling ear to ear. In his mind he's probably saying, "YES, well done boys, I'm going back home"😂
Cheslin Kolbe, that man!!!!👏👏well done boys. 🇿🇦
The "frenchman" wasn't too upset to see SA through.
Hope we never have this Farce of the 4 best teams playing each other in QF..
It was awesome
Honestly I have been wishing this match was a semi -final ,including the Ireland vs All Blacks match😭😫
Just bled too many points in this game France. The writing was on the wall against New Zealand, I'm so surprised nobody made the point when that game took place but I guess it was lost in the washup because Les Bleus won the game. Winning high stakes rugby is about scoring tries and keeping your opponent to just one or two.
The Frenchman is souf efrican 🤣🇿🇦
All that talk, that the North has surpassed the South.
Southern Hemisphere still rule the game of Rugby Union!
And Fiji almost beat England as welll...
France beat the Abs just a few weeks ago, and Ireland beat the Boks last week lol. One point in it. From NZ

Great from both teams. I think france were a little too frantic at the end though. Needed 3 not 7. Maybe a more controlled approach to play for a penalty.
Or just a simple kick into the 22, chase, ruck and drop goal.
The fact that Paul Willemse doesnt play SA lock just goes to show how tough it is to get into the squad. The depth we currently have is insane.
Yes I was a bit hard on him, calling him a sell out, but u perfectly right, it's incredibly hard to make the team with the amount of debth we have in our rugby atm.
Hey - who knows? If the French don't pick him going forward, he could pull a Kleyn and play for the Boks in 2027...
Given Eben, Lood and Franco are in their 30s, won’t we be hurting for quality locks next WC? Do we have good second row prospects?
Paul from Pretoria?
Legendary French team!

3 plays defined this game for the Boks & the mindset they had. #1 was Etzebeth lunging at the ball to save us from a 2nd try from France. #2 was Kolbe chasing down the kick. #3 although at the end but it’s when in the final minute Faf literally gave the ball back to France showed the Boks trust their defence more than their offence.

I followed rugby very loosely my whole life, now I am quite keen to understand the sport, Is it plausible that Argentina can break tradition and be the 6 different team in world cup final, I am fully aware that Bew zealand are historically one of best nations, after the 3rd world cup final, no new team has been competing, to me that is cycle that will naturally break sooner rather than later, Argentina always seem fearless if I remember, I can see The springboks smothering England, livibg in england, my peers in sports seem to get complacent in this exact kind of situation, I think the african passion and streetwise smarts will embarrass my countrymen. I think it South africa to win again I hear the zealand aura is fading. ❤
this shouldn't be a quarter i agree, how did world cup officials select the pools I wonder, was there no seeding process? cause it's been really imbalanced. they really need to be more consistent with referees too. And frankly putting most videos behind a paywall, including highlights is pretty disgraceful.
SH dominance again.😅🤦 Might as well retire the trophy.
They might as well give us OUR trophy!😂
Hardluck France 🇫🇷
Jim: "It's tight margins, it's sport we've all been there......" lol, 🤣🤣🤣Does he mean in the RWC's that he played in when Scotland got knocked out in the quarters in 2007 and didn't make it out of the pool stages in 2011.
The interviewer spent the entire interview (well almost ) chatting to the losers. Which is a strange approach. He pretty much glossed over South Africa altogether.
A springbok performance for the ages is even making a French man sound like a South African.

"Some controversial decisions" sure just some but at the best time like one example the Etzebeth forward at 5m of the SA line changed the entire game already, no penalty, no yellow card everything is fine already. This game was a pity to watch from start to end in regard of the ref performance, it never gonna push the world rugby forward with this kind of performance.

AS A Bok supporter I fully agree that it could have gone either way. The French were brilliant and must be gutted. The crowd booing for every ref descision against tye French team and every Springbok try and shot at posts was however appalling and an embarrassment to rugby.
@tonysa2337 The French crowd are very passionate I love going to the games. O'Keefe did not have a good game, although it did flow very well.
Rugby needs to sort out the way world cup draws are made, doing so three years in advance is ridiculous. Now we have two pathetic looking semi finals. This tournament bar the quarter finals has been a complete non event, so baring the final between SA and NZ that'll be the only competitive rugby. There already aren't enough nations competitive enough at rugby to capture the wider public.
It’s a disgrace for these games to be quarters. Get someone with some sense to make these games happen when they should belong.

Oui, on ne peut pas gérer tous les paramètres.
Le résultat des matchs ne se décide pas que sur le terrain. Les arbitres n'appliquent pas les mêmes règles en fonction des adversaires ( en avant volontaire, combat dans les rucks..) c'est desarmant. Je ne vais plus regarder le rugby à 15 , les décisions arbitrales y ont trop de poids.

Why is the people so NEGATIVE ABOUT LOSING? WE HUMANS AND THIS TWO TEAMS EAS ACTUALLY GREAT IN EVERY WAY.. THEY PLAYED THERE HEARTS OUT AND FOR THAT I HONOUR THEM. Regardless of win or loose.
because it was a once in a blue moon occasion. France will never have a team like that ever againn it's over.
Grats South Africa, another southern hemisphere win, i'm sure it will bring a lot of new supporters watching this sport...
It's easy to have that perspective when you've already won it all and will regardless have a strong team every cycle. Few are afforded those privileges.
Aw, poor Paul Willemse, needing to pretend that he is gutted the French lost! There is no South African born person in the world who doesn't become emotional when the Springboks take the field.
True I have been in Australia for 25 years as a adult and 8 years in NZ as a child but I still support South Africa.
Gutted. Nothing about the refereeing Jim? Etzebeth's forward in the 7th minute which would have given the lead to France by 14 points and the big guy sent off, just like Aaron Smith the night before? Kolbee's race before Ramos takes a step. Krieg's elbow contacts? All the permissive refereeing around the scrums? Even Dupont who never complains, had a word with O'Keefe! And that is rare! 68th minute, Smith clearly is hands down bringing back the ball and the big guys never stopped doing it. I guess the safas were right about the biased refereeing but I struggle to see how they got ill-treated and where the victimizing comes from the beginning of the tournament.
Look at Paul pretending to be sad 🤣
I hope england turn up for the south african game . They'll be hoping there are a few red cards . Joking apart , i hope its a good game and not one sided.
Great win by the the Bokkies and you can gurantee the retoric around the ABs not being good enough has started already, just keep underestimating the men in black that suits us fine...
If the Beeeeeeeaoooooeeeeeeast had worn those glasses for games he would've stampeded past absolutely everyone, with the vision of Os du Randt
