Flip van der Merwe replaces Langbek… about time!
Well done Flip, great rugby when you come onto the field
… and Flip immediately gives a penalty away
@ bidibidi-jan:
@149
Flip, Pottie, Alberts?
Bekker finally gets taken off for Flip. Honestly if Bekker plays like that again I hope we never see him in a Bok jersey again. Kruger needs to come back.
Pumas 16 / 6 Springboks
Flip lucky to escape the fastest yellow card
141 @ Just For Kicks:
At least you’re not so pissed that you can remember how to spell the name of the dreaded STI.
Hoskins takes Murcury every 8 hours methinks.
Eish! Arg get another 3 points.
Lyk nie baie goed nie…
Negative, negative Pumas play!
Bokke penalty
Just saying thank goodness Bekker went off then damn heck Flip gives away a penalty.
We are just useless out there today. Never seen a Bok team play this useless for years.
@ PumaSpringbokJan:
Ditto on Bekker. His play is affecting young EE as well.
Pumas 16 / 9 Springboks
Maak die Leeus almal Bokke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Puma captain didn’t understand a word that Walsh said but he knew exactly what the Pumas have been doing wrong.
Come on Bokke i suffered enough
Wake the bloody hell up, move Hougie to wing and get things going.
Come on Bokke… now we need a try!
@ Piet-Springbok-Jan:
2 Cnuts vani Kaap!!!! Card carrying members?????????????????
@ TexasBul:
Ouens lyk ge-rattle, maar dit begin beter gaan, Hougie is die spark.
Much better play by the Boks
And as I say that, fark, we don’t commit players again, and it is like picking candy for Albacete
Lineout Bokke… Pumas 22
Roncero replaced
moes daar afgerond het.
Much better handling from the Boks only to lose possession just before the line. Looking better now.
Alberts knocks… oi
Bwahahaha.
Fascist like SARU’s minnions playing like the German athletes of the 1936 Olympic games!
Getting shafted by “untermenschen”.
Ruan Pienaar on, Hougie to the left wing, Mvovo to the right wing, Habana off
Habana taken off, looks miffed
