8 Minutes left…
Forward pass by Los Pumas.
Kolbe now at scrummie for the Bokke…
Gbs, saw not long ago that some of this Championship games have been cancelled by NZ, what will happen now?
The match quite disjointed now…
Bokke lineout, 13m out…
Need a try here… for the Bonus Point…
Pumas turnover scrum… good Pumas maul defence on that occasion.

Not sure at all, Bully!
Pumas Free Kick… and quickly thereafter a Bokke penalty… popped into the corner.
Overthrow… arghhh
When is Rassie in the dock?
Last pass forward, otherwise a sure Pumas try…
Bokke penalty… near the Pumas 10m line…
Pollard does not manage to kick out…
Pumas attack…
Hooter goes in the background…
Almost a Pumas try… saved on the line, somehow…
Bokke penalty… and a Yellow Card against Lavanini.
Jeeez, Lavanini’s tackle on Pollard was years late…
Pumas penalty… against Kwagga…
Looks like the Bokke won’t get a Bonus Point…
Pumas penalty, drilled into the corner!!
Defend, Bokke!!
Try Los Pumas, Pablo Matera.

Not a game to be remembered…
Cheers have a good night
OK, who performed, and who did not:
Loosehead Prop: Trevor Nyakane was not on long, Steven Kitshoff played well
Hooker: Malcolm Marx was good, Mbonambi was poor
Tighthead prop: Thomas du Toit had a good game, so too Frans Malherbe
Locks: Marvin Orie is simply not Bokke material. Lood de Jager had a very good game (awarded Man Of The Match), so too Nikolaas Janse van Rensburg
Flanks: Siya Kolisi tackled well and never gave up, Franco Mostert was solid as ever. Kwagga Smith not a great match
No 8: Jasper Wiese tried hard, Dan du Preez was OK
Scrumhalf: Cobus Reinach was solid, Jaden Hendrikse was average
Flyhalf: Handré Pollard very good at posts and solid overall
Centres: Damian de Allende was very solid, Lukhanyo Am had a good game
Wings: Makazole Mapimpi was solid and scrored his 4th try against the Pumas. Cheslin Kolby was solid
Fullback: Willie le Roux was a playmaker and had a solid match… ran a bit lateral at times. Damian Willemse not on too long but did OK
