Clear obstruction by No 13 of the Pumas on Koch.
No try…
Back for a Bokke penalty, far back.
Jantjies for posts again, 5m from touch, 5m outside the Pumas 22.
Springboks 24 / 18 Los Pumas
2 Minutes to go.
Los Pumas now throwing everything at the Bokke.
Pumas scrum, on the Bokke 10m line.
They WILL attack from this set piece….
Reset scrum… 20 seconds to go.
Hooter has gone…
Springboks win… but not by far…

OK, who in my mind does not deserve Springbok Rugby World Cup spots:
Scarra Ntubeni, Thomas du Toit, Wilco Louw, Marvin Orie, Rynhardt Elstad, Marco van Staden, Cobus Reinach, Dillyn Leyds.
I also don’t think Siya Kolisi deserves a World Cup spot… but he WILL be there and will be the official captain…
Far, far from perfect game by the Springboks… but the mitigating factor here is that they were all thrust into a game without having had the opportunities to have built combinations…
OK folks… I am out.
Enjoy the evening… see ya!
