I think that this was a great RWC for Wales. They just had too many injuries and couldn't quite seal the deal against the 'Boks. They played a fantastic game against England and looked good against South Africa here, but that attack was relentless and there were a number of times they managed to escape within 10 metres of the line. Finally though that set piece 5m out got them. You could see that scrum wheel to expose the blindside, and then the eight made a great play to draw in the two Welsh defenders. That behind the back flip to the scrum half was just perfect and that was it. Great play from South Africa to clinch that win.
