Oh, how we are missing FdP!
Ons kry nie diepte nie. Ons kry hulle nie op die agtervoet nie. Hulle le vlak en forseer ons om agter die voordeel lyn te speel.
@ Pietman: Agreed. Slowing down the play something terrible. As usual.
Difficult to see what exactly happened there…
Pumas 17 / 16 Springboks
@ grootblousmile:
daai ou grou Flo se oge man!
Contepomi is a real nuisance with the ref today. Constantly in his face.
156 @ Pietman:
Ja man….
@ Stormersboy:
ok next time we could maybe call a time out so we can organize our defence so 13can take 13. but what about the guys outside him?
Flok ons spel kuk.
Time to substitute Alberts for Kolisi
Contepomi subbed, injured
Speel nie spel nie:)
@ grootblousmile:
Jou gese in die week, toe jy my vra wat dink ek van die Bokke se vertoning laasweek, dit gaan n ander storie wees hierdie. Dit sal maar neuk om 4 driee te kry vandag, maar ons flippin moet net!
If the Boks don’t up their play, they’re going to get hammered by the AB’s and Aussies. The Argies are trying gallantly, but going nowhere, and showing why they’re no.10 in the world rankings.
@ MacroBull:
You take the man in front of you surely?
Ons vat hulle nie weg nie, elkeen op sy eie
Bokke penalty, Etzebeth taken in the air at the lineout
@ grootblousmile:
We all can see Pienaar is kuk, but the man that matters doesn’t agree.
Another Bokke penalty… taking Juandré’s legs out in the maul
@ McLook:
Uiters kuk, veral daai balle wat ons in kontak verloor.
Come now Bokke, Man!
@ Stormersboy:
and it was jannies man. jj only eent for the guy when he see jannie cant mark him
Aggenee man, how could we fark up that line out like that!
@ Stormersboy:
Natuurlik, veral 10 tree van die doellyn af, jy tekkel wat voorkom,
Bissie on
Arghhhh
Need to not rush things… need to dominate up front, keep possession
Flap flap stuff from the boks. No penetration. Just shifting the ball from line to line.
Argentina are being so clever about when and where they commit to the rucks. There have been ‘rucks’ with 4 to 5 Boks heaped on the floor, and not one Argie in there. then they’re all in, and the ball is turned over. Boks can learn from the students here
