Scrum them, Bokke!!!!
Hi all tuned in a bit late just as Allen was lining up his penalty kick. Surprised by the score at moment thought it would be closer in the beginning but on seeing the territory stats can’t help but think the Boks should be further ahead by now
Lots of kicking from both sides…

Hi Bully!
Bokke playing well so far…
Italy tighthead off for a head assessment, so we are going to have uncontested scrum while he is off.
Am knocks a high ball…
Italy attacking uncontested scrum, deep in the Bokke 22.
Yesterday thought Rassies selection was interesting with only 2 backline replacements could have been for various reasons one maybe he was expecting a tough battle up front another he wants to give his forwards as much game time possible or some backs are injured? Thought it was a bit of a gamble and wonder which of the forwards could do a job in the backline if needed, only ones I could think of Brits and Kwagga are not playing
Italy scrum again, 6m out… dangerous.
Italian’s injured fingers strapped together.
Bokke will have to defend like trojans here…
Bokke turnover scrum, well done!
Good clearance by Pollard… helps when the pressure is not so big.
Bokke penalty, earned by Duane Vermeulen over the ball!
Come on Bokke, do it!!
Big Bokke maul again… penalty advantage…
Bokke squander a try with a 2 man overlap.
Try Bongi Mbonambi, Bokke!
Italy 3 / 17 Springboks
Italy using their No 13 to crash-ball it up often.
Italy penalty, Duane Vermeulen offside.
They do not take the points, they kick towards the corner.
Lineout 10m out.
Nice, Bokke turnover scrum!
The replacement Italy tighthead won’t be back… so it’s uncontested scrums for the whole game.
Pollard not getting much distance on the kick
Another italy penalty… against Lood de Jager, contact in the air at the lineout.
Bokke lineout maul counters have been excellent, their defence has been spot-on… so far.
TMO
For what is that?
Italy penalised for a head grab by the Italy right wing.
Another Italy prop down, getting attention… they are running out of props fast!
Running Bokke maul…
Another short kick by Pollard
Bokke penalty again, high tackle… on halfway…
