Probably the best game of rugby in a few years! Definitely the closest someone has run the AB’s and their respect for us is huge in the performance of the Kapa o pango today! Just a pity that the crowd don’t show similar respect! We won’t beat these guys by brute force alone and the skill level that we are showing in our game is definitely on the rise! We need to be patient and accelerate the decision making skills that showed this afternoon!
We need a replacement for both Fourie and Morne and they need time to establish themselves! Our youngsters have the talent and hopefully this quota issue won’t get in the way! We also need a few leaders in the pack to step up and assist in decision making! Good luck to Juan Matin and his Los Pumas!!! Hulle kan maar die Aussies moer!
@ badprop:
Ek is geneig om saam te stem. By dit gesê is daar ten minste nou ‘n paar quota spelers wat i die bok span sal kan pas. Maar nie die punt nie. Ek hoop ook werklik dat dit nie in die pad sal kom nie. En as hulle daai rigting wil gaan kom ons hoop maar dan dat hulle eerder vir Coleman as Jantjies kies.
As daar ‘n game is wat die Argenteine kon wen sou dit die een moet wees. Op ‘n tuis veld teen ‘n sukkelende Wallaby span is dit moontlik. Kom ons hoop dat hulle nie dieselfde strik af treap as die Bokke nie.
We also had the second game of the season, after Jaco Pyper last week, that was professionally officiated!!! Well done Nigel, the calf muscle will heel!!!
@ badprop:
I have to agree. And full credit to the ref. He was spot on all day.
almal gaan so aan oor 13 wat n probleem is.13 is n probleem want die bulls speel vir jj daar.hy us n vleul,intussen sit die beste jong buite senter in die land op die bench,sy van is small-smith ek dink hy moet maar na n ander profinsie gaan waar hy gereel super rugby sal speel ,hy sal dan deurkom en die vleul op 13 besigheid kan dan stop

Heyneke kry nou die eer wat hom al ’n tyd lank toekom. Selfs die laksmanne van destyds – toe hy uit die afrigterspos gekroek is – is nou sy beeldpoetser. Sy passie vir die Bokke word aangeprys en sy emosionele orgasmes in die afrigterslosie by die toetse word beskryf as awesome!
Heyneke het in sy tyd as afrigter baie gesluk. Hy verdien elke minuut van die genot wat hy uit die Bokke put. Hy verdien die eer en die vertroue.
Nou is sy volgende fase as afrigter die November-toer na die Noordelike Halfrond. Dit is in dié geweste waar oor 411 dae die volgende Wêreldbeker gespeel word.
Engeland 2015.
Die punt is dat ook coach Heyneke nou deur tawwe besluit gekonfronteer gaan word.
Die Bok-agterlyn wat gister teen die All Blacks uitgedraf het, sal in 2015 so lyk: Kirchner 31 jaar oud; Willie le Roux 26, JJ Engelbrecht 26, Jean de Villiers 34, Bryan Habana 32, Morné Steyn 31, Fourie du Preez 33.
Die thirty-somethings! Ek kan al die opskrif in die Londense Sun-koerant in 2015 sien wanneer die Springbokke daar met dié agterlyn aanland. Grab a Grannie!
In feitlik nog 24 maande kan baie gebeur. Toegegee, daar’s ook heelwat jeugdige talent op die spyskaart. Nuwes en beseerdes. Maar die tawwe een wat Heyneke nie sal kan systap nie, is wie in 2015 sy kaptein gaan wees. Jean de Villiers? Fourie du Preez? Adriaan Strauss?
Gaan Jean op 34 nog ’n senter-faktor wees. Beswaarlik.
As Fourie al in 2012 Heyneke se eerste keuse as kaptein was, wanneer gaan hy die kapteinskap oorgee aan die een speler in wie baie van die Meyer-aandele belê is? Hoe langer ’n afrigter en ’n span bymekaar is, hoe sterker is die onderlinge lojaliteit en hoe knusser die verhoudinge. En hoe moeiliker raak dit vir ’n afrigter om die tawwe besluite oor personeel te neem.
Fourie is straks nie net Meyer se kaptein nie, maar ook sy agterlyn-afrigter op pad na 2015. Maar dis nog net in sy kop.

So, just another loss.
same old, same old.
Whaaw a stunned silence here. Everyone lost their appetite for Rugby
Must say this The margin is misleading, the Springboks must just get into the habit of winning against the All Blacks. At this stage we are simply afraid of doing it.
I thought Heynecke would be able to calm them down and concentrate. Certainly JdeV and Habs showed they are right up there and performed like the coach wanted. FduP was to much in the limelight all week, it somehow caught up with him.
Our injuries was at crucial places, first Habana looked like a player ready to score 4 tries on his own. Willem Alberts was all over McCaw and friends, in fact i feel our back 3 was brilliant or was McCaw only shaking off the rust. Funny he came really to light when WA left the field. Kolisi is a player for the future in a back three build around speed, not this one.
Tackling was abysmal. Why? Was their jerseys slicker than ours, we fell of tackles far to regularly. They were clinging to the tiniest piece of clothes and brought us either down or slowed us up. We were slipping far to many grabs. Is it the material or the hand cream we used. It was just amassing how they ghosted through us. Great tries for them but horrible for all South Africans.
At least we saw a few great tries from both sides. And if HM keeps practicing this game plan and get Nienaber from WP to teach them proper tackling we can get right to the Top.

Sorry Super, but i see very little progress in this team from when Snor was coaching. The Boks need another dimension. A faster loose trio. The guys who we have atm are excellent, but f@ck slow. We need an 5 lock, a replacement 3, a 10 who doesn’t kick every f@cking ball away aimlessly, a 13 who can actually tackle and anyone except sideshow bob at 15.
@ Loosehead: The problems are stil that SARU has way to much say. And then the Bok contracts.
We are building for a WC here. So lets start looking a fazing out the older guys. Habana is still brilliant, but does he have another WC in him. Same with Fourie Du Preez. Give some younger okes a chance to come in and show if they have what it takes.
Here is what my team will look like for the end of year tour.
