C’mon Bokke, don’t make history for the wrong reasons tonight
Looks like the wind is blowing, hope the Bokke cope with that better than rain.
Steve Walsh, the ultimate home town ref on the whistle.
Bokke better build a solid lead somewhere if they want to win tonight
Teams out on the field, waiting for the anthems
Looks like they are playing in a platteland town like Boland.
Watching rugby from Argentina always reminds me of the way we televised rugby in the 80’s
Kan nie verstaan hoekom Jan gedrop is nie.
Nkosi done and dusted, now for the opera that is Argentina’s anthem
En ons het gedink ons volkslied is snaaks, hehe
Bokke to kick off
Arg line out on the half way line
Bokke playing into the wind
Boks on attack but lose the ball in contact through Etsebeth.
Line out lost in our 22
Same story as last year in Argie; moment we go down in the tackle we loose the ball.
They are playing in Namakwaland, but no flowers!
Looks like Springbok in the background…
Arg hot on attack
Penalty straight in front
Pumas 3/0 Bokke
En ons begin sleg ….
We are trying to run the ball to early in the match. Play the corners and earn the right to take it wide first.
It’s all Pumas so far, must be raining
1st scrum and Boks concede a penalty.
1st line out lost and now a poor scrum as well
Gelukkig kan ons die wind die skuld gee.
Ruan same bald patch on his crown as Gysie…
Sanchez misses the kick, still 3-0 Pumas
Pumas dominating everything, grubber into the Bok 22
22: en x2 keer die bal verloor by afbreekpunte.
Line out won by de Jager, clearance made by Pollard, Pumas kick high and le Roux clears
Boks win the nett gain
