At the moment it’s more like a chess game, than a free flowing rugby game…

Nice steal by the Bokke and they get the penalty

Always nervous if rugby players mess with their hair too much……!! 😉

Nothing beats the glorious blonde flowing locks of the best ever Springbok Fullback, who I have to say is keeping a very low profile this tournament.

Apparently all his hair has fallen out now, and he sports a grey beard which he has dyed blond. Roots are showing.

Is it not because you can drink beer with your mates in the afternoon and put your feet up!! 🙂

Nice try. The plan is clearly to get inside their half and play from there.

Goeie drie deur… Bismark Burger.
