That was clearly a try, his knee was still in when the ball went over the line. The video ref had taken a bung I reckon.
To be fair, South Africa played the better rugby.. we certainly didn't disgrace ourselves and can be proud of second place. The match was certainly a LONG way from the 36 - 0 drubbing we got in the first round. We're left to wonder whether the outcome would have been different if that try had been allowed though..
