Fiji on attack 2m out. looking much better
Yellow Card to Italy…
…and a try by the man mountain Nandolo. On second thoughts, the Boks would lose.
Nadolo, not Nandolo
Bokke drive from the 5m lineout…
31/5. 33 min
Lucky for that yellow card. Maybe the Boks could score against 14.
Nope, Boks can’t score against 14.
Italy 10 / 15 Springboks
Okay maybe if there was another yellow….
Wow, that just shows how shit scared the Boks are of the lowly Italians with just 14 men. Kicking a penalty.
Italy lucky to not get another yellow. Boks realise that 14 man Italian team is too strong and take the penalty kick to posts instead.
Carr a bit invisible at the beakdown or am I just not noticing him?

I’d like to say that the Boks took the kick out of respect for the Italians, but sadly, I think its because they are pissing themselves
Fiji in again. Great stuff. Lion hearted stuff by the fijians. – 34/10 Halftime
@ Just For Kicks:
I think this Bok team is so demoralised and without confidence that they are actually worried that they could easily lose to Italy
Lambie has the cleam out strength of a newborn foal.
Parrise should NEVER have been allowed to win that ball.
Plethera of subs on for the Bokke… Lambie, Beast & Koch off…
FUKC me.
The Springboks are such a third rate side now… eish!
I mean dammit, the All Blacks pasted the Azzurri 68 / 10 or something… and the Bokke are only 5 points in front… with Italy threatening the Bokke line at present…
Try Italy….
Level, with the conversion to come!
Boks entertaining the Italian fans by making a mockery of how to play rugby…
Pathetic I’m out
Italy 17 / 15 Springboks
Italians starting to believe they can win?
If the SA coaching and management don’tvresign en masse after this shyte then they have no conscience.
It amazes me how one man can completely turn a team around. Eddie Jones has taken a team (same players) that couldn’t beat their way out of a all girls nursery school into a team that are not a million miles behind NZ.
SA now desperate for points.
Jantjies has not played since when?
Go you good thing. Azzurri all the way
