442 @ Just For Kicks:
Apart from the Wales try, where he was nowhere and found wanting badly, yeah… he was good.
Missed a number of up-and-under catches too though!

What did he say? As I didn’t realise he could read and write
Still lot of improvement left in this Bok team. Willie is due to have a good game soon. Hope it’s next week.
454 @ Blue Bird:
Did not know he could write…. maybe he has someone typing for him…
How is his spelling?
455 @ Just For Kicks:
SNAP!

Yip…but how did he allow Biggar to grab that ball in the air for the Welsh try!
@ Just For Kicks:
Hee hee, carefu, Blue Bird will give you a good pecking for that.
@ Pietman:
He was out of position.

I think so too. Confidence is definitely coming back
I feel Strauss should start at Hooker. Bismark off the bench Leave pollard in there. i like his darts to cross the gain line, but needs to try keep the ball alive with maybe an inside pass. His defense is decent too.
@ The_Young_Turk:
You live by the sword you die by the sword. he is adventurous so sometime he will be out of position, wings need to cover quicker for him
Bigger is going to have a seizure one day when taking a kick at goal Geeeeez.
Credit to him he kicked very well.

Now is not the time to play hard to get.
465 @ CoachPete:
Farkit, he is bloody fidgety, is’nt he!
Looks like he suffers from involuntary spasms and tourettes syndrome at the same time, before he kicks!

Yep, I am very defensive if anyone is tough on someone I am fond of!!
Percy won the RWC for South Africa is 2007 and I think that needs to be remembered! 🙂

Great comment lol
Evening Sports fans! Wille gives me the worries. I’d drop him for Lambiekins,
Liewe ouers…..ek het n hele paar grys hare by gekry vandag. Ja ek weet…sommige van julle het nie meer veel hare oor nie, so ek moet seker maar dankbaar wees vir die hare wat ek het 😉 , maar liewe hel…..dit was “to close for comfort”.
Te veel balle afgestaan in die los gemaal…..en elke keer binne hulle kwart gebied. Dit, en die hoeveelheid bal besit wat ons weg geskop het….ai tog.
Anyway, well played to the Welsh.
@ Stormersboy:
have to agree
@ Stormersboy:
Howzit mate.
He should’ve claimed that ball that Biggar kicked. Willie was running into the ball. Biggar had to time his jump with the ball coming over his shoulder.
Big fullback error. Willie should have towered over that ball.
@ Stormersboy:
I keep Him at 15 even if he gives us the willies. 🙂
@ grootblousmile:
“Gooi jou glasie weer VOL, hierdie keer…”
Vrek nee, ek het reeds my volle kwota drank vir die hele Wereldbeker gedrink voor die eerste helfte verby was 😉
@ CoachPete:
Pollard way to predictable with his “darts”
Morne for the semi final. Pollard is kak. His general play and his inconsistency kicking at poles.
@ IAAS:
Ja he often finds himself in a blunder defensively. I’d even consider playing Ruan at 15.
Speaking of, so glad he stayed on the bench. FdP is playing up a storm.
@ Stormersboy:
I prefer your first choice of Lambie at full back.
Ruan can stay where he is. On the bench.
@ IAAS:
Or back in the changeroom
