@KingPaul – KP…comment oor die game daar op die Kwas thread.
Eerste skop pale toe vir WP. Peterson mis, maar dit was moers ver!!
Typical bloody Province. Swinging it wide nicely at times then a knock on or some stupid mistake when its 4 against 1. They really make life hard for themselves. Boland really have WP to thank for keeping them in the game. But a bit of discipline after half time and it really *should* be a bonus point win.
Final score
WP 38
Boland 7
Baie mooi WP
Yep, well done WP. 5 tries and a valued bonus point. Province rely too much on confidence because when they get a nose in front it starts to happen for them. No self belief to take the game forward when it’s tight and the mistakes continue to happen. Coetzee needs to work on lifting their heads and giving them the confidence they need no matter what the scoreboard says.
Anyway, bonus point win will do nicely thank you.
