Have to agree with Campo. Wallabies are quite hopless at the moment.
151 @ PumaSpringbokJan:
Yip, no hop in their step…
Hahaha
Happy Burpday Gbs!
Wobblies seem more at odds with themselves than what we are.
And yes, by about seven points..
153 @ fender:
Thanks Kitaartjie
bring on the goose now please let us burry the wobblies
150 @ grootblouBokJan: Don’t be too sure, even your writing looks like it’s starting to get wrinkles on it.
145 @ leon: Huh? The Boks are only just btter than crap.
One thing I am a bit worried about for next week is, if Etzebeth gets cited with that bloody stupid head butt earlier and he cops a ban. He will be a massive loss against ABs next week.
@ Just For Kicks:
Summing up my feelings too but just can’t ever bear the Boks losing to Oz. maybe to the ABs.
2 Nd Half ON!
151 @ PumaSpringbokJan: and the Boks can’t put them away.
Bring on Lambie, Goosen and Flo. NOW
157 @ Loosehead:
Wallbies are quite hopless right now. Even Arg will beat them. Arg gave ABs a tough game this morning.
Goosen is still undercooked guys…. relax
Another minute for Beast…
o hel tog skop sen jaag skop en jaag skop en jaag…….
162 @ Just For Kicks:
With you on that, only doubt any of those are game fit. Hope they are.
And Steyn kicks the ball away again.
We must just win today, in Aussie backyard…. that is the mission
Boks should be beating these Wobblies even with 14 men.
164 @ grootblouBokJan:Agree whole heartedly, but then so is the entire Bok team, so why not bring him on. He simply can’t do any worse
Another missed Morné droppie
Beast back on
Steyn gets the ball and goes for an aimless drop kick.
And we’re back to a full complement. Kommaan Bokke, moer hulle nou!
Hougie looks dazed….
Wallabies penalty against Pienaar… easy shot
Springboks 13 / 9 Wallabies
Kom Bokke!
Feel kinda sorry for Duanne: he gets his first Bok cap when unfit and with no form behind him.
Yet when he had fitness and form, nobody seemed interested.
Ag, come on Boks. Need to focus now.
