Well played Bokke!!!

Om wat te maak?
I’m very impressed with Lood de Jager. He gave it all. Well done to him.
Johan Goosen is the disappointment of the game, the season, the year, the decade!
@ nortierd: 🙂
Gosh that question flew right over Ashwins head hahaha
@ nortierd:
n nael te skeur en vir agt maande uit te wees…. ek dink hy en dewald potgieter is nog meer van kristal gemaak as goosen
@ grootblousmile:
Pollard teen Skotland?
@ smallies:
Hulle het darem al n paar belangrike seisoene klaar gespeel

Maybe, just maybe that they were avoiding running up the score?

Ha ha
Dit wil gedoen wees
Wie is volgende in die tou, as Goosen uit is ?
Ebersohn of JLP ?
@ Ben:
Pienaar…
@ grootblousmile:
beserings het hom duur gekos…. maaar dalk kom hy nog reg, ek onthou jean divilliers was net so gewees vroeg in sy loopbaan….. en tussen draka snotske en heineke is hy pap vrot ryp gedruk, dis jammer want hy is n moerse nice ou
@ Ben:
Boshoff I think.
Or Elton.
Maybe Watts, who actually has had a good season….?
@345 Ben
Jurie en Oregan gaan met goue trompette staan en blaas terwyl Fransie so deur n mis wolk van rook sy grand appearance maak om Bok rugby te kom red terwyl sy agent agter hom aanhardloop met n vet tjek in die hand wat hy deur die lug swaai
HM is besig om goeie diepte te bou in verskillende posisies. Baie opsies veral op slot en losvoorspelers.
@ Stormersboy:
Het vergeet van boshoff, hoop sy besering is genees
All the Springboks played well… a few mistakes and a bit of ill dicipline, but nothing much.
Even Doc Jannie played well!
Gurthro played and scrummed incredibly well, actually monstered the Hairbear and Beast made an impact off the bench
Bissie still a bit troubled on dicipline and had a few lineout shockers
Doc Jannie played his best game in yonks
Victor & Bakkies are still masters and young Lood de Jager made excellent impact.
Flo was a monster over the ball
Willem Alberts was also better than for some time now
Duane Vermeulen is a bloody hard grafter
Fourie du Preez was great in the 1st half… a bit unsteady here right at the end
Morné Steyn remains the PREMIER flyhalf for the Springboks, Johan Goosen a flippin disappointment of note… how long did he lst, 3 min or 5 min?
Bryan Habana was just brilliant today again.
Jan Serfontein was solid, great defence, strong… could run crash-ball a bit less though.
JP Pietersen was a bit quiet
Cornal Hendricks was solid on the right wing
Willie le Roux was sublime, unmatched!
Great win by Bokke. Who was man of the match. TV at hotel been switched over to soccer

Bissie was the one player who looked overplayed, Jannie had the best 1st half I have seen from him in a few seasons now, Gurthro looked better than expected.
Lood had an excellent debut. Well played!
Ruan looks better at 10 than 9.
How about that gap jannie went through? lol brilliant
Remember, we have one more Live Game Article tonight, Argentina / Ireland!
