Hahahaha. Great try Wobblies, well done. Very easy, but looked good
I can’t stand our scrum half play. Always farking around and trying to be clever and it always backfires. What is sooo frustrating is that the Boks NEVER learn from their mistakes, they just repeat it over and over again!
241 @ Just For Kicks:
I suppose THAT is Morné or Heyneke’s fault too…. hahaha
Wallabies 26 / 19 Springboks
@ grootblouBokJan:
Bly ek is nie die arme coach nie!
Sharpe het die hele span ontwrig deur Etzebeth ‘uit te haal’, ervare ou daai, NS.
Even Goosen is on
So HM’s Boks need a converted try to draw against this shit Wallaby side.
Lambie & Goosen on
And these Wobblies are kicking Heineken’s ass. Scream some more into your walkie talkie, go on!
Just give up really. We are totally useless out there. More so than the useless Wallabies. At least they keep possession and get the tries. Just don’t want to watch this absolute rubbish we play.
Why take Kirchner off when the problem isn’t at 15?
Berrick Barnes cramping heavily
Barnes was sipping a Brown Cow and pulled a calf muscle.
Just look how much better the Boks look.
Can the Wobblies score 4 tries? Can the Boks get a losing bonus point?
Bokke penalty…. going for touch
Come on Bokke… just do it!
Lambie and Goosen should have been on straight after the half. These boys want to play they want to bloody run and keep possession. Made a difference straight up as they came on.
Loosehead, Crusty was pulled off cause he passed – once.
Too little, too late.
251 @ Loosehead:
At least Lambie wants to run with the ball and not just kick the damn thing away all the time.
Wallabies scrum…..
Adriaan Strauss off, Liebenberg on
259 @ Loosehead: he dared to break the game plan.
259 @ fender:
Exactly.
5 Minutes to go in the match
Boks suddenly look much better, couldn’t be the subs, surely, as I haven’t got a clue, so it must be something else. Lambies looked good too, as has Goosen, but again, probably wrong there too
The players shouldn’t be blamed for this farce. They don’t pick themselves. This is completely on Meyers shoulders and his beloved walkie talkie!
Winning and losing are the same thing, only winning feels better.
Allegedly!
Goosen kicks the ball away…. oi vei
Boks have 2 1/2 minutes to score twice. C’mon
