*shakes head*
Try Alex Cuthbert, Wales… great run by him
Poor play by the Boks. That should never have been a try
Very nice try by Wales
C’mon HM, bring Ruan on, I need Wales to get one more try

Willie het 12 gespeel vir Boland, btw! Hy en Piet van Zyl.
Willie was scrummie op Strand Hoerskool, soms 10 ook…hy speel orals, op 11 sy naam gemaak.
Goeie drie vir Wallis.

273 @ mikeybrass:
Well it just appears he has played his part in the team dynamic, rather set up a maul than take gaps on not pass the ball 😛
@ Pietman:
Was hy nie loskakel nie?
Kak chippie by the Goose
Morgan is n tiekie en n halwe baksteen hoog
Wales penalty, against Flo
@ MacroBok:
Ja, losskakel in sy Cravenjaar.
Bokke het nou klaar gespeel, besig om shop toe te maak.
Boks getting a bit loose now. Need to play 80 minutes, and not fall asleep a la Stormers
@ MacroBok:
He has had a good game. He could have had a great game if he actually looked for space like the others are attempting to do in the backline.
Flo having a field day at the break down
Goosen has hardly been on
Pienaar at 10, this will be interesting!
Bokke penalty… just more than 6 min to go
O donner, Goose off injured!
Glas man!
Goosen weer gekrock ?
Goose on and off. That could be it for him, injuries just getting the better of him every time.
@ mikeybrass:
We have really struggled in the second half with players pushing passes and popping too many balls, we need some players to keep their heads and keep to the structures that makes south africa strong.
Now we know that Goosen should just go and play in France and be forgotten for the Bokke!
Scrappy stuff. Not enjoyable now. Come on Boks, finish on a high
Bokke penalty, right in front
Better by the Boks
Bokke kick to touch… very positive play
