120: Vir seker, hoe verder ons hul wen hoe lekkerder en beter.
Sal jy tevrede wees as ons met 1 punt wen ?
@ Just For Kicks:
Exactly. It’s not arrogance to expect the Boks to win this test well. These guys just don’t want any pressure on HM. They think if they stuff their ears and lower expectations, that this will work
116@ grootblousmile:
Cheers boeta.
Okay that is me out of here too.
Might blog during the game. Have flu so no wine or going out to watch the game today. See ya all later.
GO BOKKE. Just win it and I will be happy.
122@ The_Young_Turk:
Jeez it has nothing to do with Meyer. All to do with winning.
Catch up later everyone.
@ bdb:
No, won’t be happy in general. Depends on the circumstances of course. If for example we suffer injuries to key players on the field or red cards, this will make a 1 point win a relief.
Cheers all, catch up later, and Gooooo Bokke, make us proud, and give ’em carrots
