Gooooooooo Bokke!
2 hours & 45 Minutes or so to go till the game!
2nd half on (Ireland/Scotland)

Thanks, yeah, let’s talk here about that game!
I’ve also switched over to SuperSport 6, where that game is broadcast, so I can follow that game now too!
Scots on attack, look really impressive. If only they could improve their tight game to boot. Linnet 5 out from Irish line.
This is going be one mother of a match! Freezing weather and a frenzied, sell-out crowd 10 meters from the narrow sidelines….
Try Henry Pyrgos, Scotland!
AND OVERRRRRRR. Great stuff, Scotland. Pyrgos over.
12/7 Scotland (44 min)
Scotland 12 / 7 Ireland

Does not mean you can stop reporting on it… hehehe
Wont be long before uncontested scrums
If Scotland is managing to lead Ireland away, then I suppose there is a distinct possibility of the Bokke losing to them and either ending second in their pool, or even maybe not even progressing should Samoa play properly.
The only sure bet with these current Boks is that they will definitely beat Japan and the USA….any other wins is a bonus
Simple rugby. Just keeping the ball in hand. Gains you so much more ground when done properly, as Scots are proving.
For the Scots to win this game, formula is simple. Never kick, and don’t, whatever you do force a scrum! Just keep the ball in hand.

@ grootblousmile:
Hello all just popped in for a bit to see the scores, is the Scotland/Ireland game any good? Quite a lot of 2nd and even 3rd choice players in both squads.
12 @ nortie: Difference is, Scotland play with absolute passion and heart, thus they get, and take the half chances. Thats what makes them such an enjoyable team to watch. Not the strongest, just the most passionate.
If the Boks played with just half as much passion, they would have won last week.
13 @ Just For Kicks:
Ireland should still win this, going away… they are controlling most of the play.
They score, as I type, to level up!
Cronin!
Normality restored, Ireland have woken up, and Cronin in. Good try
14 @ Bullscot: Scots only with ball in hand, rest of their game not looking too solid. Ireland – far too many errors, but looking a bit better now.
14 @ Bullscot:
Hello Bully!
Yeah, that puts things in better perspective, it is a warm-up game after all!
12: hallo glas half leeg of is dit glas half dolleeg bok ondersteuner ? 😉

Ireland will definitely win. You cannot win the match with just one facet of your game working, just interesting to note how good the Scots are ball in hand, and how poor they are for the rest.

Thanks with both teams having very experimental line ups it doesn’t surpise that there may be errors. Both coaches looking at wider options in their squads in general.

Nee wat Ben, as dit by die Bokke kom het ek nie eers n glas nie.
Ek het drie weke laas enige rugby gekyk, en is ook nie van plan om meer geld te mors op DSTV en Bok rugby nie.

Considering 2nd/3rd choice players in both sides, Scotland looking the better for it. Both sides with a load of handling errors early on – Scotland settled much quicker, and the Irish still struggling with the errors
Scotland 15 / 14 Ireland
Skotland moet regtig leer om games te wen in sulke situasies. Kom ons kyk of hul dit gaan regkry.
Much better handling by the Irish, and it showed in that very good try. Wow, highlight of the match so far!
Try Simon Zebo, Ireland.
Bloody good passage of play
Ireland 21 / 15 Scotland
