That pass was more forward than SARU’s thinking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ARGGGGGGGGG Jean with a bloody forward pass again. Always, always does that. 🙄
Bokke playing with more and more guts and determination….
HM is op kookpunt, ready for lift off !
Ai Crusty, bly agter die bal man….
Ons moet meer wyd gaan, lyk my.
Dit lyk wraggies of die span nog nooit saam gespeel het nie. Geen ritme of passie nie.
On the positive, Ruan soooooooo much better at scrumhalf. Why does Meyer keep on playing Hougie at scrummie I have no idea.
rattle, rattle
It just doesn’t get any better. I don’t think there is a single standout player in the Bok side – perhaps Etzebeth and Coetzee, but thats it
Pumas may just be running a bit out of steam and Boks look a little more composed. Having just said that the pumas come charging back and the Boks decline once more.
fernandez misses with a drop attempt

Maybe shafting his mother 3 times a week?
Tryyyyyyyyy Fransie Steyn!
@ TexasBul:
Voorwaar, lyk soos daaai ou plattelandse spanne wat ek soms in moes speel, mekaar Vrydagaand voor die wedstryd by die hotrel ontmoet en bietjie taktiek bespreek,,,,en daar gaat ons…
Okaaay, Frans!!!!
At last – completely against the run of play, but I’ll take it with both hands right now!!!
Oh vlok daar druk die National Socialists!
Gelukkig vir ons … na nog ‘n swak lugskop deur Morne.
Pumas 16 / 16 Springboks
16 elk
Phew!! We get a try from a Arg mistake. Thank bloody goodness it could not have come sooner. Well done Fransie.
OK, now we must build, build, build
PietBokJan, ek hoor jou. Hopelik kan die opportunistiese drie hier die Argies se spirit breek.
@ Scrumdown:
Gooi bietjie Coke by ou maat, klink my daai Captain skop nou in!
Hehehe. Hold on now argies.
My Superbru is for a draw!!!!!!!!!!
Het skopskiet scrumdown se nick gesteel, wat is fout met die ou
Can we hold on now and get a win? Damn hope we can.
@ Scrumdown:
Calm down mate. Take it easy.
Strange decision replacing Coetzee, unless he is injured, he has had a better game than Potgieter, who is just on ineffectual battering ram
204 @ Scrumdown:
You WILL have to calm down with the continious abuse….
Pat Cilliers gets his cap, well deserved boykie, congrats!!!!
