I told you so
Easy peasy, Wales know even their best isn’t good enough
Skinstad says ‘…and the crowd goes wild’ as the camera pans a stadium that hasn’t moved. I swear the guy reads from a script, because there is no way he can come up with the ludicrous comments otherwise
beauty morne

Possible, very possible.
I wonder how many people put a bet on a 5-1 Dutch win and truly believed it would happen
Great stuff by the Bokke now!
Good stuff so far, how good is willie le roux in the air?
Farksteaks, I’m agreeing with you guys about Bob and the kak he talks, ” Cornel went up high and proud for that ball” wtf is he talking about?
third time we got turned over
Boks playing like men possessed. Good stuff. MS certainly not being missed yet!
Fourie du Preez is so much better than Ruan Pienaar, is’nt he!
Wales Free Kick, as ball is put in skew at the scrum
very serious in my opinion

it does not matter that willie didnt fall awkwardly, he could have easily fallen on his neck.

Enterprising play by the Bokke, good to see
