nie goed nie, glad nie goed as jy so oorheers en jy kry nie ‘n bonuspunt nie, moes nie op Nuweland gespeel het waar drieë so skaars soos voortande is nie,hehe.
Final Score: South African Springboks 27 / 6 Argentina Pumas
All credit to the Pumas. They were outgunned but played their hearts out to prevent that 4th try. Walsh just made a mess of the last scrum.
@ grootblouBokJan:
Boks were infected by the Stormers.
Eisshhh, we didn’t control the 2nd half. Home bonus point in sy moer in…
Boks had a poor second half in my opinion. JdeV didn’t have his best game by a long way. Too many turn overs, too much loose ball and not enough variation in our play – but that has become a part of our game. But all in all, a win is a win, but we should have taken 5 points from this game
Well, signs of good things, but not protecting the ball well enough at times.
No try against us on the sheet though.
That could mean the Championship for us
0/21: BB 34 – Sharks 19 – finale telling

@ jan-jan-jan-die-bokbul-van-die-bosveld:
At least Morné Steyn slotted ALL his kicks today, I was worried about that part of it.
Hougie did well, our scrums were OK, loosies were good
@ grootblouBokJan:
There are no points scored for excellent defense. That was the lesson we learnt from the Stormers. We had to score that bonus to have our destiny in our hands. Now we have to rely on the Pumas to deny the Ozzies and the Kiwis.
310: daai geel mannetjie het nog baie tanne !
Ruan Pienaar was very good, Habana was back to his best.
Quiet one with some mistakes was Jean de Villiers.
Very nice interview with Juan Martín Fernández Lobbe
Jean with a good interview too…
Morné Steyn gets Man Of The Match
Guscott and Percy here on OSN tv, they say Jean’s captaincy was poor…
Now to hear about Bissie’s injury… and hope Habana is Ok too
@ Piet-Springbok-Jan:
MOTM!!!
Lees my eerste post, dankie…
I also thought Pienaar was very good
320 @ BokJan For Kicks:
He was indeed
Ek het Woensdag vir Bidi gese Morne gaan MOTM wees, dan is almal se bekke weer stil…
319 @ Piet-Springbok-Jan:You’re my MOM! What a hero
In the Cricket we are 125 / 2
Nou sal ons bonuspunt wen in Argentinia moet kry ?
Was something lacking today from the Boks. JdeJ had a quiet game, not bad. None of the Bok players had a bad game. Considering that the Blacks couldn’t put the Wobblies away either after seeming to be so superior, I hope it was not a problem specific to the Bokke.
NOU MOET ek pee…. hehehe
hele span goed, kort nog spark vir afronding.
enigste kritiek: ons eie balle beter beskerm, die rugbybal veral !
Arg gaan beter word, sien nog hoe skok hul die Aussies of AB’s.
@ Piet-Springbok-Jan:
the favourite part of your body
You should get a Morne tattoo on
@ BokJan For Kicks:
Thx bro’, it was a team effort really, couldn’t have done it without Morne!
