Well done Bokke!


Well done also to Jacques Nienaber for making the tough call and subbing the absolutely useless Willie le Roux at half-time. That made all the difference.


Great win. What an exciting last few minutes!


Bokke!

Geez Willie had an absolute shocker Great win by the Boks Thought the ref was poor - we should have had a few more scrum penalties thanks to our dominance Kwagga has come of age at test level despite playing out of position Lood and Etzebeth ruled. Marx, Kolisi and Vermeulen were huge. Kitshoff was very good de Allende was yet again dominant in contact the guy is a physical freak. That Am behind the back pass for the try was sublime Mostert once again proved what an utter physical liability he is

100%...Willie has gone from being a nothing player to being a liability, I hope to never see him in a Bok jumper again. "Fat" Fransie made an epic difference.

Willie has played too much. Needs a rest. 

Jantjies played a cameo at fly half. Pollard likewise needs a break.

We know who the toughest front row is.

Give us back Snyman, PSDT and, Kolbe and we will be just dandy.

We need to build up center depth. Allende and Am are also being overplayed. Same backline every test with normally only 2 on the bench.

Yes Willie had a very bad day at the office but perhaps needs to be rested. The error that we tend to look more at negatives than positives. Rugby is a team game when some perform and others don't but because it's a team where once in while others perform and others don't in one match and vica versa in other games, don't, you don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Rassie's philosophy is building a team spirit and treating his choices to his vision...it may not be perfect selection every time but his priorities and emphasis is correct. He is a good team builder and that's the underlying secret in team sports. 

Saffa's play under great adversities, a country run by criminals and ridiculous laws but we are resilient people who never completely give up.

We needed a light to keep us going under such depressing circumstances.

Pleased that the Springboks finally won against all odds.

Yes time has come to ring changes  with the players.

But still a win is a win even in the last 45 seconds of the game I thought it was lost but the guys managed to win a line out in that time and get a kick in front of the AB's post and the rest is history.

Amazing how close the score lines were against the Boks in this series both in this win and the recent losses.

Replacing Willie at half time was a big move that paid off.

Well done Fransie you never cease to amaze us.
