Dis net Ruan Pienaar man, hy is dig, daai moepel
@ Pietman:
persoonlikheid
152 @ Pietman:
Net jammer Ruan Pienaar hettie persoonlikheid nie, hy het net ‘n afdraende gesig soos ‘n hartseer weeluis!
Jinne, ons kan darem sekerlik beter doen as hy… flok
I think credit must be given to the Samoans too. They’ve come to play rugby and are not resorting to spoiling, aggressive tactics like I feared.
Kolisi on for Spoes. Should be an improvement.
2nd Half ON!
Siya Kolisi on for Pierre Spies… I think we’ll see a few Whoops here!
@ grootblousmile:
Vonke gaan nou spat as Piet en Lambie opkom.
Kolisi op! Nou is daar marakkas!!!
nou wat nou het spies n nael geskeer
Samoa penalty, against Kolisi, harsh call
@ smallies:
Hou teen die kop gekry, gesien hy lyk nie lekker nie.
Arm injury for Spies… elbow, it looks like
@ Pietman:
daai is aanvaarbaar
Another Samoa penalty, against Etzebeth
@ Pietman:
O nee, net sy elmboog..
This kind of ‘stampkar’ rugby really suits Alberts – and, in fact, the SA style. We will always do well against a weaker team that plays a similar style, but bigger teams who have learn’t how to counter this style of play make us decidedly average again
Samoa penalty… hands in the ruck by Adriaan Strauss
Bokke defence has been good, they must just watch the penalty count
Already noticed Kolisi more in his 5 mins on the field than Spies in his entire 40!
Kolisi down injured.
Try Paulo
Koalisie uit soos ‘n kers !
As Spies daar was, het hul nie gescore nie ….
Too easy for the Samoans in the end. Is this the regular Bok collapse we are seeing now. They usually only play for most of one half…
Springboks 32 / 16 Samoa
Juandré Kruger on for Kolisi…
Ons tekkel hoog en kry seer, veral die WP-manne, hehehehe!
Nice exciting, dangerous running by the Samoans. Boks just content to defend so far. Heaven knows why!
Samoans stop playing ‘stampkar’ rugby, start moving the ball through the hands, and they make the Boks look average again.
Handbags and Adriaan Strauss takes serious exception
So’ialo with a stiff arm on Atta’s head…
Het die game te los laat raak, speel nou in die Samoa se hande, sewesrugby vir hulle.
