    235 @ bdb:

    you’re absolutely correct… he’s gotta learn to keep his cool and channel his aggression into more positive use…

    Great win.AB,s superb in all facets of play.Congratulations

    234 @ Pietman:
    As always Pietman Tounge-Out Wink jokes aside though Mikey comment was perpetuating my perception that too often the forwards inability to provide quick go forward ball is overlooked and the blame placed on the half backs

  • 253

    Well, the All Blacks certainly set down a marker, after looking rather dismal last week.

    Maybe the Bokke can do the same!

  • 254

    Well done ABs & thanks again Jaco.

    Disapproval

    Outta here, back later to watch the visitors do some serious butt-kicking in Cape Town!

    Bye

  • 255

    Wow what a score well done All Blacks, wonder how many neutrals would have predicted such a big win

  • 256

    @ BrumbiesBoy:
    Cheers BB me out too

  • 257

    Jislaaik, dit was nou kuikenmoord.

  • 258

    @ Bullscot: I’ve lost count of the number of times Pienaar has messed up good ball from the forwards on fast fields.

    I prefer Barrett to Cruden.

  • 259

    @ nortierd:
    Lol….the one loss since WC…now there’s a great Stat. … I’m enjoying the ride…makes those Sundays feel good

  • 260

    OK chaps, see you late tonight again… Nortie will be your captain for the Currie Cup games!

    @ BrumbiesBoy:
    Tjorts Pedsonnestet…
    Ok Rts, thx for the chat, I am off to the Toyota Oil Pits to swear at some wanabee mechanic in a white robe Angry
    See you at the Bulls match…hopefully.

    252: stem saam. Ondersteuners verklaar wat fout gaan na aanleiding van hul gunsteling spelers.

    As die Bokke met Morne goed speel, dan is dit omdat die forwards wat so goed is. As die Bokke met Lambie goed speel, is dit Lambie wat goed speel.

    So is daar baie ander voorbeelde.

    Geen skakelpaar sou goed kan speel in hael en storms van laasweek nie.

    As veld droog is vanaand, en ons sukkel om te wen, dan kan ons maar bekommerd wees oor HM en die Bokke.

    Laat ons sien wat vanaand gebeur.

    Few observations:
    McKenzie threw away any shred of a winning chance with his selection
    Peyper’s importance for the Wallabies is vindicated 😉
    Big Will needs an optometrist

    No need for thanks, the man was well ‘compensated’ last week 😆
    He did his part, it were the Wallabies who didn’t

    Yep, thought, before this game, that the Newlands game will be the best of the weekend

    @ grootblousmile:

    After last weeks game you told us to ” suck it up” blah blah blah the Ab’s were beatable, weak tight five blah blah blah, with respect you may run a rugby blog but you knowledge of all things rugby is very limited – we take you twice again this year without too much trouble. 🙂
