Ex-England captain Matt Dawson praises the side's World Cup quarter-final win against Fiji and warns of a greater challenge to come.
I do not necessarily think the players will be thinking that because of the bubble they are in, but that is the reality.
There is going to be some fatigue and fallout from that for South Africa and England are trending in the right direction. But we cannot get away from the fact that at this World Cup England have not yet faced opposition like South Africa or New Zealand - who play Argentina in the other semi-final. They can do all their analysis of South Africa and ideally come up with some really innovative plays, something the Springboks have not seen that will knock them on to the back foot.
But I do not think people thought the momentum they were building would be so steep, which is a credit to players, coaches and backroom staff.They always get that. England fans love their England team, but they are still allowed to have an opinion on it.
