Hello SuperBeer… ek skinder nou net van jou…. hehehe
Missed to the right again by Bustos Moyana
60 @ Pietman:
Ja, hulle sukkel geweldig…. miskien kom hulle met ‘n geweldige terugveg poging…
Sjoe, England almost with a 90m try….
Fark die Pumas maak op kritieke tye n fout en dan moet hulle keer vir n vale
Jinne, ons oudstryders gooi al weer AL die kole hier op die vuur!
Try England… but the last pass looked forward
England plays with great breakaway speed, they look good..
and scores… or not
Very much forward….
Pass was indeed forward

Lyk maar kukkas broer, daai vorige wit trui met die rooi rosie is darem stukke beter.
Nou dat ek daaraan dink, jy moet eintlik so n trui met n rosie oppie bors daar in jou kwekery dra, sal kwaai lyk, veral met al die Engelse toeriste wat daar aandoen.
Ek weet nie of daai nuwe Kingstrui, met die skild en knopkierie voor en Cheeky se foto oppie rug, eintlik by jou pas nie…..
Pumas get a penalty just inside their half
71 @ superBul:
Ons kan nog ‘n klomp jonges wys HOE om te werk EN hoe om te kuier!
72 @ Pietman:
Bwahahahaha
Pumas penalty… they are trying very hard to get back into the game
Another Pumas penalty….
What about a Card ref?
Fark, the Pumas fark the lineout up again
20 Minutes to go…
Rob rated Boks like this
15 Willie le Roux: 7.5
Tremendously satisfying debut, and that after the onerous weight of pre-match hype around him! Assertive and refreshingly unpredictable in attacking play, but especially heartening were some defensive moments, like a key tackle on Sergio Parisse and important aerial grab under real pressure behind the try-line.
14 Bryan Habana: 9
Knife through hot butter … first in sizzling infield burst to set up JJ Engelbrecht for a try, then once more in 66th minute when Boks were badly in need of fresh momentum and he sprinted over majestically himself from Adriaan Strauss’s long overhead pass. Racking up some really decent Bok showings at No 14, out of his more familiar terrain.
13 JJ Engelbrecht: 7.5
Confirmed his consistent appetite and thrust this season at outside centre. Slippery and long-striding with ball in hand, and made his tackles too. Suffered just a tad from composure going AWOL near the try-line on two occasions.
12 Jean de Villiers: 6.5
Desperately overplayed in Super Rugby thus far, and touch-and-go with a hamstring twinge earlier in the week – compelling enough game under those circumstances, including strength and industry on defence and good “at the shoulder” running against left touchline to streak in for own dot-down.
11 Bjorn Basson: 7
Quiet first period through no real fault of his own, quickly followed by high-tackle yellow card (not long after which Italians registered lone try). But got better and better as game progressed. Excellent counter-attacking awareness and opportunism, including try from intercept.
10 Morne Steyn: 7
Slightly less than complete as a No 10 “general” on the day, but give him his due … the 2013 Steyn certainly has immeasurable amounts of confidence back. Kicked his goals with trademark precision and had some twinkle-toed moments in possession, including deft layoff of occasional inside passes.
9 Jano Vermaak: 6.5
Was giving generally precise, swift service, the scrumhalf’s core value, until his sadly torn hamstring fractionally ahead of the hour-mark. Did get caught in possession around the ruck fringes a few times, but might have been better protected.
Pumas penalty, for the umpteenth time…
Pumas penalty on the England 5m mark…
Pumas opt to scrum
@ Pietman:
Jis jong die Kings gaan die seisoen nou lank vind, maar hulle gaan woes uitgerus wees waneer hulle die opgebruikte Bulle aanvat
Come on Pumas, get something to cheer about!
@ superBul:
@ grootblousmile:
Nee manne, SO verniel ek myself nie langer nie, ek sit en slaap hier voor die tv…
Sien julle bulle later weer, tjorts eers.
83 @ superBul:
Neewat, hulle het nou net pyn oor…. die spanne het hulle nou behoorlik uitgewerk
SuperBul… ons vriend Pietman kannie meer die pas vat nie… het jy gehoor toe hy sê “Ek kannie meer nie korporaal”?
@ superBul:
Janee, pasop nou, Kings kan nog marakkas maak, hulle is omge-ellie as hulle die dag aan is, veral Catrakilis, Du Preez en Strauss.
hy neuk sy klok op met al sy reise oor al die wereld se time zones
Nog net 13 minuutjies oor…
