Barbarians (19) 26 / Springboks (3) 20 (Final Score)
The Barbarians and the Springboks met at Twickenham, North London, at 16:30 SA Time on Saturday in the last match for Southern Hemisphere rugby interest for 2010. This is the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 2, M-Net and SuperSport HD on TV in SA.
It was an error-ridden match with lots of penalties by the French referee and most of the excitement came from the Barbarians in the first 20 minutes.
The Barbarians scored 4 tries, the Springboks 3.
Kicking to posts by Elton Jantjies was abysmal.

BaaBaas steal another Bokke lineout and Ashley-Cooper carves the SA midfield open….
Bokke maul well.. Alberts then carries up strong
Bokke knock… Andries Strauss
Another untidy Bokke lineout…
Bakkies off injured… Flip on
Forward pass by Giteau
Al wat ek kan se is pateties!
Adriaan Strauss playing hard and well, Juan Smith knocks and the BaaBaas kick far upfield
@ Blue Bird:
I think it might be a baby shower, not sure, have never been to one.
Boks trying too hard. Can someone just tell the ouens to enjoy the game please?
Easy penalty for the BaaBaas, they go for posts
O’Connor misses
Bakkies back on… must have been blood
Lemoenetyd
What are we drinking?
Personally I’m having a “White Cow”….
Crikey, the line-outs are a lottery. What are they throwing in with out there – a bonus ball?
46@ fender:
Hehehe
Would like to see what the possession stats are… recon it must be something like BaaBaas 65%, Bokkies 35%
3 tries to none looks bad….
Wat mallet al vergeet het van rugby sal snor nooit leer nie.vlok ons agterlyn suck.
Bokke looking much better when they employ their forwards… but then some feel that is against the spirit of a BaaBaas Festival game.
2nd Half on
Piet, is daai Vrystaat kaptein van ons se skuld, ne? 😉
Hougie steals a ground ball off Nonu…. BaaBaas somehow get the ball back and they attack wide left
Bokke steal a BaaBaas lineout ball
