5@ bos_otter:
Wikkel daai kieriebene!!
Anybody watched Re-Union
I like it how they paint their pictures.
First they admit that McCaw broke off too early.
Then they say a Australian broke of first
They then says that Kaplan should have seen the Aussie first( i thought the ref follows the ball as highest priority)
Next they softened the decision calling it a split second decision.
At least they admitted that McCaw was breaking early.
The kicking by Gittau was atrocious, i questioned his kicking before. Hitting the ball at the point with the inside of his boot looks awkward.

@ grootblousmile:

Game on!
If the Pumas can just cut out unnecessary mistakes where they JUST give possession away they’ll be good… the attitude is right, the physicality is there…
Penalty WP, very kickable… on 22m line middle of the field.
WP 3 / 0 as Willem de Waal slots it.
WP driving well…
WP’s going to murder these Pumas if it goes on like this.
Another kickable penalty for WP.
WP 6 / 0
WP retaining ball very well…. and their driving maul goes again from the kickoff
Try JJ Engelbrecht on the right wing for WP

WP 13 / 0
21@ biltongbek:

En nes ek dit sê kry Pumas ‘n strafskop op die middelkol
Elgar Watts slots it
WP 13 / 3

Now the Pumas have ball and they’re running well…. oops, WP penalty…
Skew in the lineout from WP… Pumas scrum.
Free kick for Pumas… early engage by WP, the tap quickly and WP’s not 10 away… they take the scrum.
