Morneeee! 3 down, 17 more to go….
Oh shit, shit shit! Bissie off!
There’s fire in dem eyes of Etzebeth
Sharks 0/19 halftyd 21-15 voor teen Bulle 0/19, 3 minute oor.
Great take out of the air by Hougie.
Penalty Bokke… good touchfinder
Eindtelling Sharks 21, Bulle 22.
Eish, jammer oor BisJan, hoop dit is nie te erg nie.
Penalty Pumas, on their own 10m line, De Villiers holding on
Pumas look very eager. Boks look to be the stronger team at this stage. Early days yet tho’.
Argies threatening…. Bokke lineout in their 22
Great line kick by Hougie
Go Boks!
Kirchner takes a good high ball…. now Habana does….
Been impresses with Langbek so far. not in the line once, and made some good hits – could we see him coming back to his best?
Kirchner with a good clearance
Argies with ball in hand and attacking
@ grootblouBokJan:
Hoop nie Bizzy se knie is te erg nie, die AB’s wag…..ons gaan hom nodig kry vorentoe.
Argies peppering Boks with high kicks and the Boks all up to it. Crusty, Habs and Hougie stepping up. Alberts prominent as expected and even Langbek is getting stuck in among the forwards.
Lots of ball for the Pumas
Dumb play by Sideshow Bob, after a great take.
Kirchner playing the ball from the ground, on the wrong side
Springboks 3 / 3 Pumas
69 @ jan-jan-jan-die-bokbul-van-die-bosveld:
Thanks for that score naelskraap! What happened to Bismarck?
Pumas rob Crusty of the ball after that high kick. Good following up by the Argies.
COME ON BOKKE!
@ BokJan For Kicks:
Yes,Bekker much tighter and in close today, godo…
Boks will first have to win this match before they can think of 4 tries…
