amper gooi ek my tv vlenters ai almal jaag kak aaan
Tryyyyyyyyyy Mossieeeeeeeee
Victor, you beauty!!!!!!!!!!
aggie dankie fokken tog
Matfield speel soos ‘n losskakel, en maak ‘n drie.
@ superBul:253 – Super man, the biggest culprit here is Habs. He has cost us 21 points. Take the 21 points away from 31???? Should be 6 – 10 to Aussies. Habs has cost us huge. Frans for not been match fit is damn fine better than Habs is. Habs has no excuse except being tired. Also Morne must kick the damn ball into the stands not just over the line so they keep taking quick throw ins. Eish!!!!!!!! my friend this big loss so far is not Fransie’s fault.
The lock has more ideas than the backs!
how did Matfield do that? Amazing play and a good bok try.
Moes lankal Vic op senter gesit het …..
Wat n move van Victor
Lemoenetyd
Ozzie 31 / 13
ouenes….ek hoop rerig ons sien nie vir Habana gou weer in n Bok trui nie….die ou laat ons lelik in die steek…..hy moet sy kop loop regkry
Finally, thank you Vic Matfield and Mossie…
Ons sal nou met speel vir dood om hierdie ding te red, weet nie so mooi nie.
If boks come back from this it will be the biggest steal ever.
Twee vinnige driee in die eerste 10 minute, en dit is game on.

Puma you have already decided on one culprit, look there is more
18 Points difference… if the Wallabies cannot defend this, it will be a Bokke miracle
Goed, as Snorre die toets nog wil red, wat moontlik is, moet hy:
1. Smit af, Chili op
2. Vic kaptein
3. Aplon op in Habana se plek
Maar, iets sê my hy gaan dit nie doen nie. Eish, ja.
Ooooooooo my hart, dit is mos nie bok rugby die nie.
Let’s hope Aplon runs on now for the 2nd half, in place of Habana
@ Puma:

i have not blamed any particular Bok yet there is a lot wrong. But just think back how solid and in position Zane was and answer me this do you see Fransie in position?
Or must we just blame the gameplan or Dick or DM?
Superbul – one culprit cost 21 points.
wallabies now have to come out after halftime thinking the score is nil all. This is where the wallas have been falling to bits; let’s see if they have the mettle to keep their line intact and the scoreboard ticking over with more points.
Deans was called pigheaded through the week, because he didn’t use his bench players late in the second half. Will he send the troops on this week?
@ bdb:
Ek sal vir Juan de Jong ook opsit in Div se plek.
habananana jy ruik na branananana jy speell kakakaka oooo habananana

Must give credit, the Wallabies defence is good….
Dont know what Frans has done wrong, most of the players in front of him stuffing up big, specially Habbanna, he is finished for ever, after being booed like that.
Spies offers nothing but hanging around the backs hoping for a inside pass into a gap.
The speculation is that Snorrie might not be Bokke coach after tomorrow….
I’ll be surprised as hell if they have the balls to sack him and Muir and Gold!
jaag die Vrystaat of Sharks span op….hulle sal beter doen
