Looking forward to two things by Monday. 1. Ben Smith’s next article. 2. The mathematical permutations for Ireland to take the no.1 spot.
Haha I didn't read either of those last two, were they comedy gold in their seriousness were they?!
4 in a row. First time since 1949 since the Boks won 4 in a row over the AB's. AB's didn't score 1 try. The Boks got 2. They say the Boks can't score tries. Not the best game from either side. Last week was better from both. However, still a great game as usual. The haters will find a reason why the Boks got given a win. I don't care. The Boks are great. 7 changes against the AB's and still wins. Sorry Ireland, you can't get a free ride on the AB's coat tails to become World number 1. You have to work for it. Congratulations Bokkies, you deserve this. You brought back the Freedom Cup, and the RC Cup. 3 Cups in a row. Well done!!!
What more can these bodies take?
Intense
If people don't believe that the Springboks are the true World Cup winners and the best team in the world then they are in denial.
What. A. Game.
Never a dull game between these two behemoths. Well played NZ. My f_cken heart.
ABs missed thier chances in the first half.
Hahahah... Yep
Malcolm you biscuit. 5 minutes of hell now.
Penalty. Yellow. Corner. Maul. Trytime.
Can you believe it.
Only the All Blacks are allowed to turnover.
Handling errors and turnovers. Vark Steaks!!!!
Springbok handling has to be much better than that if they want to play Tony Brown styles.
Harsh on Willie. Rubbish card.
I want to watch the game live not just get live score updates
A messy game. The Boks defence and line outs a mess
Bok lineout is fkd & apparently they've forgotten how to catch a ball.
Yeah some miss throws :(
ABs fixed their mistakes from last week....
Springbok women smoking the Barbarians. 33-10 after 40.
Pity the match isn’t being covered on RP.
Cape Town strip looking glorious. Another beautiful day in Africa.
Excited to see Cheslin on 11 and Moodie on 14.
Kolbe’s scores a lot more tries on the left. And Moodie’s frame on the kick and chase, contestables could give Reece nightmares.
Worried about the ref this game. This one messed up the Wales Vs Fiji game at the last RWC....
I’m worried about the TMO. Been consistently poor this RC
Happy to see Jaden, Moodie and Am back in the mix.
Exciting lineup.
Plan B left field picks:
10. Libbok
15. SFM
Pollard on the bench.
Weather looking good for running rugby.
IS THIS SELECTION FOR THIS WEEK? OR JUST YOUR CHOICE?
My pick. Assuming Siya and KLa are out.
I’m thinking two fresh props. A bit of a gamble with Am at 12 to throw the midfield a bit. Starting with Williams at 9, Reinach off the bench for the impact role.
The weather looks cool and dry for Saturday, if there’s rain we might see Pollard start. SFM off the bench.
There’s a little bit of me that thinks Canan Moodie and Esterhusien could feature. But I’d save them for the Argentina leg. Along with Willie, Manie, Am. Split squad coming up.
1. Ox
2. Mbonambi
3. du Toit
4. Eben
5. Nortje
6. Marco
7. PSDT
8. Wiese

17. Kitschoff
18. Koch
19. RG Snyman
20. Louw
21. Kwagga
22. Reinach
23. Pollard
It’s time to start Williams. Siya and KLA possibly out injured. Hope RG is back.
