Matfield plays his heart out, we will miss him, thats for sure.
@ superBul:
ja nee kyk hy is n yster van die eerste water
Baabaa’s have lost it in a big way now, Cipriani again
Aussies looking much better now, although they knocked that one on

he is P oor today or is he always?
Strauss, that was sum
Strauss, that was dum
Habana is not a shadow of the old Rugby player of the year
65@ superBul:He is such a loose cannon, tries to play like Quad Cooper, but just doesn’t have the talent. The ‘I want to be the hero’ kind of guy. Martin Johnson hated him, said he would never play for England. Thats why he went to the Rebels – and he didn’t cover himself in glory there either
This is embarrassing now, a very sad way to end Victors career
68@ superBul:Hey, why do you think Stormers gave him another contract!
Straus isn’t having a good game either
@ Just For Kicks:
dammmm and i hoped he would do well
Baabaas is nou so deurmekaar soos kat kots in n tuimeldroer
Another try, whats that, 7 or 8 now?
53-6, appalling score
@ Just For Kicks:
71
heavens know
As much as I liked the idea of inviting Tomkins to play, it has turned out to be a massive mistake. He hasn’t got a clue about union laws. Has no idea where to stand or where to take the ball. When to move up or drop back in the pocket
I am surprised that VM is still so fit
All too easy
@ superBul:He’s certainly a lot fitter than a number of others that played in the world cup, thats for sure
Should be a great spectacle against Wales next w/end
Matfield with the conversion, ooooooh, soooo close, just slips by the left hand post! 60-11 final score
Hahaha , Victor Thanks , jy was maar koning. Swak skop, om die gordyn te laat sak.
Not a good match, I am afraid
8 try demolition job, well done Australia. I think Quade will have to up his game, O’Conner was bloody great today.
Cheers boys, see you next weekend
86@ superBul:I can’t see Quade getting his place back now
@ Just For Kicks:
The Baabaas was poorly coached
No lets face it GH is still on cloud 9 and the team had no continuity.
Me out too, i will miss next weekends rugby my Inlaws are celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary.
