Wallabies 39 / 6
It is getting seriously embarrasing
Al wat ek kan se is dit is darem nie n 49-0 nie
Thank goodness that the rubbish that is Morne Steyn has been replaced by Lambie.
@ superBul:
sarel
Lambie on for a sub-standard Morné Steyn… and immediately there is some action
@ superBul:122 – Just shows playing up in nh don’t count for much.
Bring on McLeod. But heck they all playing bad except a few that are trying damn hard, but not enough. Our game plan is just useless. It will cost us in the world cup even with our best.
Really thought we might do a lot better with the youngsters. Knew we would not win but hoped like crazy we could.
Anyhow catch up later or during the week.
Cheers everyone. This is just too painful to watch.
Tryyyyyyyyyy Chiliboy!
TRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY CHILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLIBOY!
chillie jou ou yster
See Lambie comes on and Chile and what happens? We get a try.
Lambie so much better than Morne. Sorry Bulls supporters we have to acknowledge that.
Anyhow a bit too late now.
Next week we play even a better side.
Wallabies 39 / 13
133@ Puma:
I have to agree… Lambie better than Morné AND Chiliboy much better than John Barney Smit
Now Ruan does not kick a penalty out… sub the sod!
Now Ruan knocks an easy ball…. useless
I see John is at prop… still useless there too
Pockock and Genia off subbed
Good kick to touch from a Bokke penalty by Lambie
2 Aussie lineout steals in a row… come on Chilipop man!
This is painfull to watch
Come on, put McWoklie on for Ruan… pretty please
Adi Jacobs knocks
Arghhhhh, Bjorn knocks with an open line in front of him
Bokke lineout, 5m out
Tryyyyyyyyyyyy to Barney… good work there
Wallabies 39 / 20
