Surely he can’t do too much damage?
Scotland penalty on halfway… kicked nicely into the corner.
Bokke must defend well now…
Daar verloor Ruan sy eerste bal..?
Bokke scrum, on their own 5m line.
1 Minute to go in the game
Come on Bokke, throw hell for leather here!

Bokke scrum Free Kick, tap and go
One word to describe this match. Clinical.
Scotland hack it out…
Bokke win!
Well done to The Springboks, well done to my Saffa friends.
Thanks for your company, catch you later.
Coach don’t be a stranger!! 🙂
🙂 Close . The donkey is on the field (Pienaar)
Goeie wen Bokke. Al die reserwes kan nou teen USA speel, hopelik kry Paige ‘n kans.
Vandag se span net so vir kwarteind, net Vic in PSDT se plek, en Paige in Ruan se plek.
Final Score: South African Springboks (20) 34 / 16 (3) Scotland
Good game, good win
Job done
Pity the Bokke could not get the bonus point for tries!
Nope good to see you again and everyone else
Well, relieved the game is over and in the bag.
No Log Points for the Scots today!
Well done Bokke. Lood or Skalla my MOTM

Vic is nie n impak speler nie, sien nie die nut om hom op te bring vir 10 minute as hy nie ouens gaan seermaak in die tackle nie
Next game is on in an hour and 17 minutes.
Job done; QF here we come.
What can we take from this match?
The unfortunate injury to JdV and VM has been a blessing in disguise.
The decision of making FdP Captain (yes, I am giving HM some credit)
The balance between the young and the old guard that are still there
The balance between mauling and getting the ball wide.
And Lood.
Negatives – Jannie, aimless kicks, some of the wayward passing…..and, well, that was just about it.
I say again. Clinical
290 @ nortie:
I also do not see the sense in playing Victor off the bench… one either starts with him or one leaves him out of the 23 altogether.
23 carries between Lood and Eben
Not sure Victor should start maybe thats why he was not made captain
Ek dink Vic kan juis ‘n baie groter impak maak in games wat baie taaier en spannend gaan wees. Sy ervaring kan dan goud werd wees.
As die ander span moeg verdedig is en nie meer kan spring nie,dink net hoe kan Vic amok saai in lynstane.
Teen die beste spanne, as game op mespunt is, en ons het aanvallende of verdedigende lynstaan in laaste minute, dan weet ek wie ek daar wil hê, oupa Vic.
Maar as HM gaan met al drie jong manne, sal ek dit ook ondersteun.
Lood and Eben were outstanding but my MOM was FDP
Its not perfect yet, still not good enough to win the world cup, but
we are getting our territory game in order
we are cleaning more efficiently to allow quick ball
we are defending like trojans
Negatively:
We are still too predictable on attack
Our runners off 9 still get the ball while standing on their heels, allowing the opposition to tackle us behind the gainline.
Kicking in their half when we have an overlap.
We just need to strike that balance.
If we can get this down we will be unstoppable
