    I am watching this at Rhebokskloof Wine Estate at a function hosted by Snor, Rob Louw, Jacques Nienaber, Justin Swart, Andreis Human and Antonius Verhoeven.
    I must admit that I don”t know who Andries Human and Antonius Verhoeven are.

    Go Boks Go.

    Hope we carrying from where we left off last week. Go get the 4 try bonus point we need to keep up with the ABs on the board until we meet them. Then hope we klap them too..lol.

    GO BOKKE!

    Go Boks! Hoping for a big win again! Enjoy the game folks, sounds like especially you will be having a good time Loosehead. Will probably miss this one, it does afterall kick off way past my bed time 🙂

    Enjoy the game guys

    Mallett says exactly what I said this morning… the All Blacks deliberately gives penalties away rather than concede a try… professional fouls…

    They’re clever that way though…

    @ grootblousmile:
    Dit is ook wat die Ozzie kaptein vir Pypers gese het sommer vroeg-vroeg in die wedstryd toe die ABs die bal onwettig vasgehou het naby die doellyn na die laagvat, ‘They did the same in the previous game’; antwoord Pypers,’This is a new game’.

  • 9

    The way I see this match going is the same as last weekend… the passion will carry the Pumas for the first 20 to 30 minutes… after that the Bokke should move away.

    Should the Bokke get an early good lead, it could knock the stuffing out of the Pumas earlier.

    Bokke need to lay the forward domination platform fist though, let’s be clear about that.

    I don’t expect the Bokke to win by 60 again… but I would like them to be clinical and have the killer instict again.

    8 @ Pietman:
    Jinne, êrens moet IEMAND die All Blacks expose… agterbakse donners.

    Dis asof die skeidsregters hulle met “kid gloves” hanteer… te sag is op hulle…

  • 11

    OK, I have pictures here from Mendoza, on OSN Sports, with Scott Gibbs and the boys.
    looks like the Langeberg in the background.
    Guscott says it was a shock to them all to see the Pumas being demolished last weekend, them having been so good last season, hehehehe!

    @ grootblousmile:
    @10 Hulle bespreek dit ook nou, kan jy glo!
    Horwell se, ‘same as last week, same as last week’, to Aron Smith onkant speel en die bal toeval na Liofano se lopie.
    Kyk bietjie die replay more.

    12 @ Pietman:
    Die All Blacks is klinies op die aanval… moerse klinies… maar hulle is moerse negatief op defence.

    Hulle is vulnerable… as die refs hulle sou vasvat…

  • 14

    @ grootblousmile:

    ek se dit mos al vandat Rugby-Talk bestaan. Hulle besit die refs

  • 15

    Ek wil hê die Bokke moet ook so klinies wees op die aanval… en laasnaweek was hulle.

    Ek wil hê ons moet AL die spykers in die doodskis in moerrrrr sodra ons voor is, en nie voet van die pedaal afhaal nie.

  • 16

    14 @ superBul:
    Ja maar jy kla altyd oor die refs… selfs wanneer hulle nie kak blaas nie… hehehe

  • 17

    Mendoza lyk soos Klerksdorp hier op my tv, net berge rondom ipv mynhope. Blykbaar die hart van die wynwereld daar rond,se hulle.

  • 18

    Bokke het mooi IN SPASIE IN gehardloop laasnaweek….

  • 19

    @ grootblousmile:
    Een ding weet jy ek hou nie my bek nie. Gelukkig is ek ver van die pers gallery daar bo.
    McCaw is die centre van my storie oor Refs se bevoordeling van die AB,s , nog altyd

  • 20

    Mallett is bekommerd oor Walsh… oor hy dinge oorsien by die breakdowns

  • 21

    Nouja…. doen die ding vir ons, Bokke!

  • 22

    Hierdie is die langste uur nog tussen twee games vir my. Op FB gons die Leeuens, almal kruip uit hul gate, nooit gedink ek het so baie Leeu FB vriende op FB nie. Moet se Deon is heel gracefull, net kort en kragtig Dankie gese na ek hom en sy span geluk gewens het.

  • 23

    Pietman het jy nog kontak met hom? GBS ek weet jy het nie. Hy is mos nou hier naby my op Hazyview

  • 24

    15 Minutes to kick-off… come on you lazy arses, shuffle up, join us… Register in your droves.

    Talk with us, to us… and shout for great rugby!

  • 25

    @ superBul:
    Mooi! Leeuwens het rede om trots te wees, hulle is deur n moeilike tyd met die relegasiedebakel en allerhande nonsens op bestuursvlak.
    Ek hoop hulle doen so voort, ons rugby is nie dieselfde sonder die “ou Transvaal” nie.

  • 26

    Buona sera a tutti!

  • 29

    @ superBul:
