Clever move by Samoa and Boks completely fall for it.
Springboks 42 / 23 Samoa
Can the Boks at least put 50 on the board?
Jan Serfontein on for Jean de Villiers
8 Minutes to go in the match
Why the Samoans insist on playing dirty and smash and grab type rugby is beyond me. Every time they’ve moved away from that style, played wide, moved the ball and used their natural skills, they have looked good, scored or completely dominated the game for that period. Sad that they insist on falling back to their traditional ways
Jan makes an immediate impact… Lambie gets the fright of his life and knocks
Bokke penalty, side entry
Another Bokke penalty.. come on, get the ball wide, man!
I know I am going to incur the wrath of Puma, but, Lambie really hasn’t had a great season so far
Bokke over…
TMO
TRY!
Nice work, Flo!
Springboks 49 / 23 Samoa
Flo, LeRoux both architects in this victory, thats for sure. Good stuff. Both deserve MOTM
Kom, ons soek 50.
Come on, we want another try, Bokke!
A car crash whiplash has nothing on some of these hits tonight!
Verkoop Willie vir JJE daar vir ‘n winskopie.
Bokke penalty, not letting go in the tackle
Bokke lineout, 5m out… now just do it!
Try Trevor?? Or Louw?
No try for Louw… and the whistle blew too quickly to award it to Nyakane
I don’t often say it, but poor reffing there
Come on, give Nyakane the try!
And they do!
Sensible decision in the end!
Springboks go over 50
trevieeeeeeeeeeeee jou ou doring
Final Score: Springboks 56 / 23 Samoa
Flo, definitely was MOM!
Flo MOTM?
