Nice one, Adriaan Strauss… good steal
Goeie ding hierdie moeilike game, sodat ons plat op die aarde en reg sal wees as die 4nasies aanbreek.
Morné Steyn with a good touchfinder off the penalty
I think we’ve all been conned: this is the Scots first team playing the Boks 3rd team instead of the other way around… and they are playing in the Highlands too!
119 @ Just For Kicks:
What’s with the ‘we’ thought you had decided to support Scotland today or are you referring to Scotland against Italy in 6 nations
Scotland casualty leaving the field, Jackson
126 @ grootblousmile:
Thats no good he was injured for part of the recent domestic season. No specialist flyhalf on the bench so is it Pyrgos on at scrummy and Laidlaw to flyhalf?
Nie Strauss se wedstryd nie, speel soos Deon Fourie,
Strauss is getting frustrated and losing it now.
Obstruction by Adriaan Strauss, Scotland penalty on their own 5
Peter Horne is a centre that can run the line well from the flyhalf position but not the best kicker in my opinion.
@ Pietman:
128
windgat, wplike
Thats the 3rd penalty they’ve put into touch, and the third they’ve cocked up. Go for goal and control the game first, fools!
Willie le Roux not managing to take a high ball, scrum
@ The_Young_Turk:
Ja wragtag!
125 @ Bullscot:My blood is green——–ish!
Flok die bokke speel dubbel K senter A.
Bokke penalty, not releasing in the tackle
Come on Bokke, make this one count!
Bietjie dryf ?
We are losing the battle at the collisions. Can’ t get front foot ball. Scott’s run past the collisions and intervere on our side.
Phweeeeew!
Bokke is gerattle
ons sit met n los trio wat nie weet wat contest op die grond is nie n scrummie wat stadiger as my oorle pa pass n flyhalf wat nie weet wat n gap is nie n buite senter wat eintlik n vleul is en daai flokken wit en lemmetjie groen truie wat de hel verwag julle
Wat is fout met adriaan?
Bokke MUST go back to basics, they are trying to play wide…. must dominate up front first, pick and go around the rucks… then when the ball is good, go wide.
Another Scotland casualty off the field, Wilson
Scotland scrum penalty, against Beast for not taking the hit
Daai bleskop No6 is doing a a lot of illegal stuff off the ball. Intervening, blocking, jersey pulling. He need a yellow card.
@ kingpetrus:
145 vra ek ook
Bismarck op die bench maak Atter bietjie nervous.
