ABs are in a foul mood for almost losing last week…. hehehehe. Ireland still not on the score board yet and ABs are a halfton up already!!! 😯
@ bdb:
Sorry mate, but in the S15 we have already seen these same players in action. Joe, Aplon and Lambie are just as good as Habs and JPP and Kirschner. Basson is clearly the weakest defender. Basson is great on the chase and catching the high ball.
Jeez think I had ABs by 7 or something like that…hahaha.
88: dit is waar. Gisteraand se wedstryd, hoeveel subs het Theron opgebring, was dit nie net die een stut nie ?
Try Adam Thompson…. and the 60 WILL be up!
All Blacks 60 / 0 Ireland
What a rout!
pums @ 93
i did a bit better, i went for 12, lol
5 Minutes to go in the match
Will the All Blacks score some more?
Ireland penalty on about halfway
92: waar kan mens na die tackles statistiek van die super 15 gaan kyk ?
@ Puma:
This bringing on the subs just makes me farking bedonnerd. How often have we seen a match go pear shaped because of it and yet the coaches persist with this shit. The problem is that coaches develope too close a relationship with the players and promise them to give them a go and then when the team is safely ahead, they think they can give the subs a chance. It’s a very difficult line for a coach between keeping the faith and confidence of your players and becoming hard and impartial and not affected by emotions. The coach has to be able to be a bit of a bastard sometimes.
Ireland will be gutted after this game…. confidence in it’s moer
94@ bdb:
Think so Bdb.
Remember the wc 2007 we only brought on one sub. Must NOT sub unless we have too. Players are just gelling well together and then the subs come on it changes the game. Last week we had no choice we had injuries to two 3 of our players. Then we sub, but not just for the sake of it.
All Blacks defence has been sublime, their attacks with precision, their handling superb, their passes sharp
Hooter goes….
102@ The_Young_Turk:
Well the only time it worked in this series was on the 1st test. There the subs made a huge difference. It hardly works like that, more so than not the subs disrupts the momentum.
Game over…. Ireland held scoreless
Young Turk, kom ons toets bietjie jou provinsialisme:
1. Stormers beste verdedigers in super 15
2. Aplon en Joe is in die Stormers span
3. Daarom is Joe en Aplon baie goeie verdedigers, ten minste net so goed soos JPP, Habana en Zane.
Dit is jou argument.
Goed, wat van die volgende
1. Bulle het die meeste driee gedruk van al SA spanne die laaste 5 jaar
2. Morne is die losskakel van die Bulle
3. Daarom is Morne ‘n baie goeie aanvallende losskakel, ten minste net so goed soos Lambie wat aanvalle betref
Stem jy saam ?
60 farking zero! This is how the ABs play! This is their response for almost losing the 2nd test! Man, I take my hat off to them.
Final Score: All Blacks 60 / 0 Ireland
All Blacks win the series 3 – 0
Ireland will feel relieved that the hooter has gone.
Jeez this will not be good for their confidence. If the series against the ABs ended last week, they would have travelled back home with huge confidence. Now it has all but gone.
Now we have to be careful for later on that don’t happen to us. If England win today it will be them with the confidence and advantage to them when we face them in England later this year. The last two they lost, will mean nothing to them. WE beat them today, we will put so much fear and doubt into them when facing us again later this year.
I just want Boks to win ALL their home games. All of the time. Much like we used to do. Especially against ABs more so them than any other country. Want that fierce rivalry to be BACK. They must fear us too. WE can be just that again. The best in the world. Have a really good feeling of this new era under HM. Just must select right and we will beat most countries most of the time.
60 NOTHING!!! Crikey! what a hiding Ireland took today.
I wonder what a combined SH team would do against a BIL team? Would be very interesting that.
@ bdb:
No, I am aware it’s not so simple as that. Rugby is a team sport and you can’t just draw simple conclusions. When looking at defending you look at technique and guts and motivation in one on one situations. Hardly anyone gets past Aplon, Jdj and Joe on one on one situations irrespective of size. Every player has missed a tackle at one time or another but these players have not missed more than the good defenders. In fact they are more focussed on their defending because of the criticisms of their lack of size whereas a bigger guy may just be more over confident and careless. That’s just human nature.
@ The_Young_Turk:
When looking at tries scored by the teams, you also have to take into account different things when comparing Lambie and Morne. Stats mean more than simple numbers too. They are just a guide not, another tool to help coaches. They don’t tell the whole story.
While you guys “kibbel” about defence and tries… I need to go to the shops and also to go shop for a new Kitchen double basin and new mixer set….
See you later for the Bokke game!
115@ The_Young_Turk:
Agree with you. Size means nothing when tackling. It does depend on technique and no fear. Just look at Lambie too, he hardly misses a tackle. Got another one on one last week against a bigger player. So it is technique for sure and most definitely guts. Lambie, Aplon and Joe don’t fear any when tackling.
Gooooooooooooi Mieliesssssss!
… and don’t let reason stand in the way of a well-worded argument…. hehehehe
117@ grootblousmile:
Jeez you have become a shopper of note these past few weeks.. hehe. Must be tough work…lol.
