Pienaar steps up for the penalty
Pienaar taking the long distance one. Interesting. Good to see more flexibility by the captain.
Goosen misses left again
….and pulls it too.
@ grootblousmile:It was Pienaar with the shot
Bokke playing nicely on the front foot
Awesome stuff now, offloads galore, passing, wow
Tryyyyyyyyy Habana!
Whoop
Brilliant try HABS
Now thats what I call rugby.
At last, it seems Ostrich may have seen the error of his ways!
Oh my heart , my farking heart! Ons gaan hulle in die grond in donder!
Springboks 14 / 0 Wallabies
Gee, always good to see Habana score at Loftus…
Lekker stuff!
Hey, the Ostrich has found his walkie talkie again. He’s a happy chappy now
ek wonder of die backline fiks genoeg is want goosen hol elke bal wat hy kry
Habs back to his glories best!
Even Bekker has found his mojo. This bodes well for SA rugby.

You want me to take the Edit Thread over again?
Boks on fire. Unlucky bounce for Crusty. Langbek having a good game too. Most Boks standing up today.
Penalty Wobblies, kickable
Wallabies penalty, right in front, just outside the 22
Vermeulen, Louw are reigning supreme.
Springboks 14 / 3 Wallabies
@ grootblousmile:I don’t mind, I’ll log out, and if I see you struggling, will continue
Jeeeeez, that should be a Card…. running massive interference… Dom Shipperley
Pienaar steps up again
Darnit, Stain has left his curse on all our kickers!

Rather you continue, the speed is up and down here.
