Scotland 10 / 6 Springboks
wat de hel gaat hier aan, GBS 70 was not intended for this site delete please
Hehe, Bokke te grootbek gewees hierdie week, Skotte se B span is nie hier om kanonvoer te wees nie.
@ Bullscot:
More people there then in Deben last week, would you believe!
Well done Scotland. This is not what I expected from our Boks. Jeez nothing actually, Scots are playing well.
85 @ grootblousmile:
Well done Matt Scott! He is highly rated over here, would be tough for the Scotland team on tour but amazing for him if got the call up to join the Lions if Jamie Roberts is too badly injured to continue.
We looking clueless. We play like this if we win against Samoa it is tickets. If we play like this against NZ or Oz we are gone and for that matter Arg too. One thing to look good against Italy.
Come on Bokke we are better than this. Get it together now.
95 @ Pietman:
Great stuff what is the official attendance there? Guess the folk in Durban have got too used to hosting test matches whereas this is a first for Nelspruit.
Bokke penalty and lineout maul
Scots B team giving it to us. 😯
Bokke close!
Another Bokke penalty, and Scotland gets a warning
@ Puma:
I don’t recall the Boks having a great game in the last 2 years. Sadly always underperforming our expectations…
Pienaar = brilliant in the N hemisphere, but very average down south. Just not made for our type of game.
@ Bullscot:
the whole Hoedspruit is there, really we must play the tests away from the main cities, we are hungry for action in the platteland
Fark, Adriaan Strauss overthrow… and Scotland clear their lines well
@ Bullscot:
Not sure, just heard commentators mention it…wife ‘babbeling’ in between!
That was rubbish rubbish rubbish from Strauss. Bring on the Battleship… 🙂
106 @ superBul:
Yes superBul I read about the excitement in the area in the build up to this test, pity you are not there, its on your doorstep man.
104 @ The_Young_Turk:
For sure, thought though against a weak Scots side we could play top class rugby. Jeepers I was wrong. Or will Boks turn it on later?
Brannas tyd
Another mistake by Adriaan Strauss… Free Kick Scotland
Geeze! How embarrassing is that! Losing the line out like that OMFG!
Would be interested to hear view on how Tim Swinson is playing (number 4 lock) he did really well for Glasgow this year, strong ball carrier and played with a ‘hard edge’.
Dis ‘n geploetter.
@ Bullscot:
