James Richardson and the team return to the pod on day 12 of the tournament and what a day it was as the hosts, South Africa, went out in style while France, tail firmly between their legs, headed for home and the inevitable public outrage at their on- and off-field behaviour.

On the panel are John Ashdown, Paul Doyle and the Observer's Amy Lawrence to discuss the day's winners and losers: including a damp-squib win over Greece for favourites Argentina and a dynamic draw that gave South Korea the point they needed against Nigeria.

Jonathan Wilson reports on Uruguay v Mexico, while Sean Ingle gives his preview of the England game against a very unified and strong Slovenia.

We also hear from South African fans on what they make of England's prospects of going through to the final 16 and, of course, all your comments and quips so keep them coming.

Tweet us during the day, and we'll see you tomorrow.
