Mooi Bokkies gooi die game weg
Come on Bokkies hang in there.
O FFS!! This Williams laaitie could have stlen it for the Draggies. The conversion to decide this match.
Wales 18 / 17 Bokkies
Brilliant, brilliant, from the Welsh. Our insistence on trying to shut the game out has cost us again. When will we ever learn. We deserve to lose this in my book.
Skop Pollard oppie heelagter, doelloos….en daar moer hulle ons. Nouja, nou ek hou ek my bek verder oor Pollard…
Well that is it for us. If only Pollard had got one of those missed kicks over damn damn damn. Why did they make him take the kicks after he had missed two will never know.
AAARRRGH! That’s it, Kak performance by the Bokkies.
Seconds left, Wales has the ball
Wales win
Teleurstellend! Kom huis toe julle…
Damn, well done Wales!
We weren’t good enough on the day.
Cheers guys….
Congrats Wales , we were not deserving this one
215 @ Just For Kicks:
Missing our 3 penalties has cost us. 9 points went begging.
Final Score: wales Under 20 18 / 17 South Africa Under 20
Congrats Wales. Well done.
Sorry Bokkies we could have had we got our kicks over. Damn pity.
Ag nouja…. dis nou maar so, wat kan ons doen
@ Puma:
Just what we spoke about at the beginning of the thread, kicks…..
But a very poor performance this, die manne lyk nie lus vir speel nie….
Disappointing way to go out of the championship. Don’t think this Wales side could beat any of England or New Zealand.
What a shame, but well done Wales, fully deserved. Very poor from the Bokkies, they had the opportunities and rather than take them, decided to defend their lead. Very poor decision with such a meagre lead.
@ The_Young_Turk:
ABs will take it, I think.
Geluk aan Wallis, het die meeste rugby gespeel.
Theron moes Pollard op losskakel gehou het, te veel rond geneuk. Du Preez kon glad nie die game beheer nie.
@ Just For Kicks:
Yup, defending the lead, mistake…
228 @ Pietman:
Yip Piet, we just never played that well today. Just have no idea when a kicker misses 2 that they give him another why? Even if they gave Du Preez the 3rd kick who knows we may have won here. 9 whole points went begging by missing our kicks. Pollard not as great as many thought he would be last year. Have no clue why they never gave the kicks to Du Preez to take?
@ ben-die-bul:
Ja, Pollard is beslis nie n senter nie, nes Frans Steyn nie een is nie.
Wallis het vanaand hul final gespeel, Eng of AB gaan hul mors.
Tjommies, remember to stay here with me for the next game… kicks off at 20:45
232 @ ben-die-bul:
BDB Pollard was hardly much better playing fh last Thursday. He is not as great as many thought he would be. He cost us today.
@ Puma:
And to think that merely a year ago I was punting Pollard as our next world cup flyhalf!
Nou gaan ons weer vir ses maande hoor van Puma wat die skoppe blame. Ons het baie flat gelyk vandag , nie soos n potensieele kampioen nie.
