Lovely try. Well done Argentina. Now Boks WAKE UP!!!!!!!
Waar is Willem Alberts?
Boks defense not up to scratch once again.
Jeeeeeez JJ is defending badly. He runs around to the outside of the 13 on two occasions as if he is looking for an intercept instead of taking his man.
Terrible.
No man.
Pumas 17 / 10 Springboks
We are playing bad , not in this one. Damn we must not slip today
Bokke gaan pak vat vandag. Het nie opgedaag nie.
Kyk hoe baie van ons manne hardloop in mekaar vas in die tekkels, daai laaste drie is JJ deur sy eie man weggestamp.
Now kick for posts please
Bokke penalty… kickable, long range one
@ Stormersboy:
@124
Yip, that’s why he ran into his own man.
Pumas 17 / 13 Springboks
Lemoenetyd
Bokke moet kwaad raak. Hoop Meyer ref hulle op in die kleedkamer.
Wat drink ons?
@ Stormersboy:
We were stretched. it was jannies man. jj was targeting the guys iutside bosch.
Guscott says Pumas back to their dangerous selves again, will be tough to crack. They are also opting not to kick for touch and allow us line-outs.
Argentina 4 points ahead and by 2 tries to 1 at half time. Lets hope they get things back on track in the second half.
40 Important minutes left….
Most important is that the Boks don’t panic and not be over eager. Keep possession more and tighten up the defense.
1st Change I would make is to sub Ruan, bring on Jano Vermaak
@ MacroBull:
Disagree. Just watched it again. You cannot have a 3 against a 13. That’s how tries are scored. JJ was there, he opted not to take the man and to instead do some sort of windmill movement to try and dazzle him or something.
He did the same thing when they were threatening our 22 about 4 moves before that.
JJ was there, you tackle the man in front of you.
He’s not the only guy that is missing key “moments” though. We need to get ass in gear but smartish.
I would love to be a fly on the wall in the locker room.
Ons MOET die balle, kry volgens Gibbs, ons het slegs 40% besit sover, en dis die plan, volgens hom, ‘to starve the Boks’.
2nd Half ON!
It’s worrying that the Boks are battling so to beat Argentina at home. They have to make sure it doesn’t become some sort of a mental barrier.
Lets hope Ostrich gave the lads a stern lecture at half time
Laat ek maar ‘n Kameeltjie gryp jong
Bokke penalty, truck and trailer
Lag Strauss toe Duanne die ou wegstamp en in Afrikaans se, ‘man fok weg soontoe’! Ek weet nie of julle kon hoor nie, was duidelik hier op OSN.
Bring Jano op asseblieftog!!!
Bokke penalty, holding on… manne weer lus vir mekaar
