Game over?
Dankie, dankie, dankie tog.
Well done boys.
OMFG! We did it!
Thats it. Well done Boks. 1st team in the semi’s. Very well done Wales, though. Tough with all those injuries, but in the end, the stronger team won.
Told you :))
Final Score: South African Springboks (12) 23 / 19 (13) Wales
Jeeez, that was a freegin nerve-ending win!
…. and then there were only 7 left…
Demmit! Just as well be will be playing the French in the final, would have had no chance against ABs or the OZ mob with this “game plan”….
phew, that was too close to be comfortable. Boks looked much better in the second half… first half was not a pleasure to watch.
Bokke scored when it really, really mattered here near the end… then defended like trojans…

Sorry I managed to scramble that up too!

Heavens Schalk Burger was a different man, must be the English food he has been eating!!
Apart from the inane 1st half mindnumbingly dum kicking, a pretty good show by all the Boks – I thought the weakest links tonight were the centre pairing. Their decision making let them down a bit. Nothing wrong with their defence, though
We live another week….

Agree, won’t win another game with that 1st half performance
Vermeulen Future bok captain
Geluk Wallis ook, baie goed gedoen, beserings en al.
Hoekom Macarina afhaal die laaste 10 minute, het sy moves nodig gehad ?
@ Just For Kicks:
Interesting comment. What to do about the centre pairing then, and the loosies? Sounds if Schalla was out of sorts today?
The Welsh can hold their heads high. I know they are gutted. But they made the Boks sweat until the end.
As for the Boks. If you thought today was tough. Wait till next week. Can’t wait.
@ Just For Kicks:
Agree fully!
I’ve just killed half a tin of condensed milk in 1 gulp!
Nog nie heeltemal oortuig van Burger, Pollard en Willie se plekke nie.
@ Blue Bird:
Ahh that’s a shame it looked for a long time that Wales would win
Simple analogy to sum up this game: Experience won it, inexperience showed.
@ grootblousmile:
So lam right now, I wouldn’t be able to even eat.

They just need time to gel together, they will get better – it is just, is there enough time left? That is the million dollar question
