Yep, interesting question.
Do we really need to replace him with a center?
JPP has played 13 for the Boks before, and could step in if something should happen to DDA and Kriel.
@ nortie:
Do we know the results of DDA’s and Kriel’s X-rays? Maybe thats why the need for another centre
@ Just For Kicks:
True, didn’t think of that, but if it was serious we would have heard that the are also on their way back.
Australian side today full of awesome individuals….can they click as a team today though?
Should be 40 plus to good for Uruguy
Yup, Aus should walk this one with a pretty hefty score
Awesome weather in mud island this weekend – makes for the perfect September
Mitchell drops a sitter
That was just Hideous. Mitchell cocks up pass from Beale with open line
Great day of rugby yesterday.
Canada came within a whisker of beating Italy.
The Boks had a massively improved performance. The reality is that we need to see these performances week in and week out. There was a lot more structure in the game. FDP made a big difference. Hopefully Ruan Pienaar will only make cameo appearances from now on. And Jean de Villiers and World Cups just don’t go together. You have to feel for the guy.
England just threw it away by conceding too many penalties. They grabbed defeat from the jaws of victory. The England v Australia match next weekend will be huge.
Too easy

Too easy again
@ IAAS:Although very rusty, and it showed, FDP was still a massive step up with a much crisper service.

Lets see how many times we can say ‘too easy’ this match!
@ Just For Kicks:
Ha ha, at least another 7 times or so, the other tries might be a bit harder 😀
Fark, the Aussies can play some dumb rugby, sometimes

Let’s be fair, to quote Hitler’s summing up of Jannie Du Plessis, a 3 legged dog with a fridge on it’s back will be crisper than Ruan Pienaar

Sorry chaps… I built the Wallabies / Uruguay thread a bit late, let’s move over please.

I just hope kriel and dda is our first choice from hereon anyway… Jan has covered both 12 and 13 recently, only reason i can think of for him to be called up.
