    There are still some who believe that Craig won the final for NZ in 2011….they must think Nigel is utterly in love with NZ aft today

  • 212

    All Blacks win by a 49-point margin!

  • 213

    …. and then there were only 6 teams left!

  • 214

    So, the 1st Semifinal has been decided, it is the Springboks vs All Blacks!!

  • 215

    I think we can say, confidently, that it will be an Antipodean final in a couple of weeks. There are going to be some nervous sheep down under over the next couple of weeks – thats win or lose!!!!

    Kom jy nie agter dat niemand, maar niemand doen eers die moeite om jou te antwoord oor die kwessie nie?

    Ben, gaan krap bietjie diep in jou binneste, en soek die ou foutjie, toe man!

    @ Ben-die-Bul:
    HM kan maar vir Oupa speel volgende week.
    Lood was vrot vandag, stront in sy hande.

    Dit sal in elk geval Oupa se laaste toets wees, so hy kan maar vir ou laas die trui aantrek wat my aanbetref

    Nice way to set the record straight, by humiliating the French.

    Though my pick of AB’s by 19 was high for a play off game….but how wrong was that score

    217 @ NZINCHINA:
    See, I told you long before the game, your side was going to run away with it!

    216: sjoe ou GBS, mag mens nie meer ‘n mening gee nie, moet almal nou skielik hier saamstem, is dit die doel van jou blog ?

    Is dit nou skielik teen jou reeltjies as iemand voorkeure het vir sekere spankeuses of moontlikhede, of wil jy nou soos Keo almal dwing om dieselfde te dink. Wat het dit nou te doen met om binne in jou foute te soek ?

    Is dit dalk hoekom ouens soos Superbul en ander begin loop het omdat hul nie presies dink soos jy wil hê hul moet dink nie ?

    We take the pedestrian Bokke next week.

    Ben, bedaar…

    Jy mag maar erken jy is eenogig… moenie eers daaroor worry nie.

    Jy kan maar sê en voel soos jy will ook, dis reg so… daasie probleme nie.

    The Welsh offer nothing on attack like the Bokke, big pounding in th bum on Saturday.

  • 227

    218: presies ! Lood en Eben is goed, die toekoms, maar was eintlik swak vandag, veral met die hande, die manne is moeg.

    Daarom moet ons nog iewers bene inbring, en ja, PSDT is ook die toekoms, maar in uitspeel games dink ek wel VIC kan nog help, al is dit vir 50 minute.

    Jy sal hele week hoor hoe die AB’s sê vergeet van Vic, speel net al die laajtjies …. terwyl hul Makou, Nono, Mealamu, Carter ens speel.

    Maar dit is net my opinie, moet my nie antwoord nie.

    Cheers fellas… I better build the 2 Live Game threads for tomorrow, then I’m outa here!

    Have a good one!

    2 Wins for Southern Hemisphere sides, 2 Southern Hemisphere sides already in the semis.

  • 231

    If Eben and Lood are tired after 10 days off, then we are in REAL trouble

  • 232

    225: Ja, askuus man, ek is eintlik twee-ogig, een blou en een groen oog !

    Laat ek gaan slaap !

    Nag almal, en mag dit nag wees vir die AB’s, volgende Saterdag, watter span hy ookal kies.

    @ NZINCHINA:
    AB’s will win next week, but not by a huge score line, probably between 8-12 or so.

    Boks are not in the top 3 countries at the moment, but neither are we the French. We will make it much harder for the AB’s to win

    Just like you were tonight, I think you are being a little conservative with that score line.

    Cheers all

    @ grootblousmile:

    It’ll be the same next week against your pedestrian outfit, no dominance, no skill, we fark you over next week 🙂 🙂

  • 237

    Problem met HM en die bokke is daar is geen angel op die aanval. Geen spoed op die bal, geen ‘starter moves’, geen variasie en geen verrassingbewegings. Te halfpas en te stereotipies.

    You counting chickens before they hatch again??

    @ grootblousmile:

    Mate a sub standard Taffie outfit took you to the wire, we put you to the sword next weekend 😀

    Too much skill, too fit, better coached… Bye bye Bokke.
