Goooooooo Bokke!!
Hopefully the ref and touch judges will monitor the offside line closely as far as Ireland is concerned. Playing just a little beyond the offside line especially on defence seems to be one of the traits of NZ coached Irish teams. That and playing ‘gridiron ‘ around the breakdown tackling players who are not part of the ruck sometimes even metres away/beyond the ruck, oh and also a tendency for the props to resort to scrumming in or going to ground when under pressure.
GO BOKKE!
Just like Australia and NZ , the Boks are very vulnerable here.
1st game up.
Don’t expect perfection.
I think SA will win the Series, but they may lose this opening game. Taffies, Poms and Paddies all very good Teams. Not much between the Hemispheres me thinks.
Patrick’s by 2.
SA to take the series 2/1.
Big win going from the scores here for Ireland U20s!
Time to go try find a place that will show the rugby hope will find one as it’s Euro football on as well now. Enjoy the game all.
Looks like the Springboks will be wearing their WHITE TEST JERSEYS today, as Ireland also plays in lighter green jerseys,
