All Blacks with most of the possession but the Bokke also quite keen…
so is it down to luck for us thus far?
Come on man, he lost the ball…
Try is bloody awarded…. no man!!
@ grootblousmile:
Ja well we’ve had the possession before and still lost the game.
So if the AB’s have all the possession this time, it’s just a matter of time before they click.
Springboks 3 / 8 All Blacks
@ grootblousmile:
OK so that luck thingie was pre-mature. They get a lucky try. As if they need it.
Kitsie is having a monster of a game…
Double knock by Rieko Ioane, after a massive break by Damian McKenzie…
that rooidak is a monster. Bloody good player. Not saying Beast is bad. We’re lucky in that (the front row) department.
67 @ Tassies:
Yeah…. as IF they need any luck…
70 @ Tassies:
Beast’s time has come and gone…
Bokke scrum, 4m inside the All Blacks half, middle of the pitch.
Bokke attack… till Pieter-Steph puts a foot in touch…
Lost forward by the All Blacks… Bokke attacking scrum…
Again the scrum is reset…
@ grootblousmile:
I think he’s still got something to offer. But we do have decent reserves coming through who are taking over.
how’s our ‘new’ loose trio doing in this one?
Bokke penalty…. holding on… it is already 5 minutes after 40 minutes…
must be close to halftime.
78 @ Tassies:
Fronting up much better!
Still the half continues…
well that’s something to savour. Flou at No 8?
Bokke penalty again… this one is kickable!
Almost 8 minutes after scheduled halftime minutes…
well lets hope we go into the shed 8 – 6 down.
In my book that’s a win.
Nehe Milner-Skudder off injured, hyper-extension of the shoulder and arm.
Bokke kick for touch, lineout 10m out!
All Blacks penalty… nearly 10 minutes into 1st half extra time…
Sopoaga taps and kicks out!
Lemoenetyd
That was sheer determination to continue playing… mind-boggling stuff!
Much better contest today… and the Bokke clearly amped to restore some pride…
