Wonderful decision from Jean to put Alberts in at short square leg.
Flood off, subbed by Farrell
Great kick into the corner by Lambie… Good has to scramble it out, very attacking Bokke lineout
@ fender:
Vir my meer soos silly point gelyk
Ireland 46 – 19 Argentina (78′)
Italy 19 – 22 Australia (69′)
England 6 – 16 South Africa (46′)
Scotland 3 – 3 Tonga (37′)
barneeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!
Etzebeth takes the lineout but they maul SA out.
Handbags… and plenty of it
Souties pluk nou hul handsakke uit.
Etzebeth is a doos.
Etzebeth penalised… put his hand in the Pom’s face…. oi vei
Eben being targeted by the Poms. They have been determined to mark this young man.
Kom nou Bokke, moenie gaan staan en rus nie.
Come on Bokke, keep playing IN their half!
Pom knock, Bokke scrum
Jinne Loosehead, you’re a hard man to please. What did Etsebeth do wrong there?
Nigel conveniently doesn’t notice an obvious knock on by England. Bokke look in charge at the moment.
Sjoe, hoe skelm is hierdie ref, as die lynregter nie ingegryp het nie, het die blinde ref daarmee weggekom.
Lambie misses a tackle 😯 lol
Rain pelting down
Ireland 46 – 24 Argentina (FT)
Italy 19 – 22 Australia (75′)
England 6 – 16 South Africa (49′)
Scotland 6 – 3 Tonga (HT)
Bokke scrum penalty… things going much better with Pat Cilliers at tighthead
So somebody did whisper something in the the ref’s ear about the scrums at half-time…
At last the ref see’s the Pom scrum cheating.
Great play by JPP there
Kicking Ping-pong won that round by the Bokke
Intercept by Tualagi… but hunted down
Againhj poor reffing Tuilagi never got back onside
Mooi terug geval deur die bokke, goeie verdediging.
Even JPP has been ruined by Meyers coaching.
England with a massive maul
