Heyneke Meyer on the weather in Debbin “You don’t get bad weather, you only get soft people.” Brilliant.
@ grootblousmile:
Oh ye of little faith, I went Boks by 10 but i have a feeling in my water that it could be by a lot more. I see Habs or JdV scoring at least one intercept or try from broken play or ball kicked ahead. This England team are going to be shown up as the struggling team they are.
Gooooo BOKKE
The Poms players coming out onto the pitch
