Boks vs Poms

Libbok has some gas!

Van Poorvliet the George Ford of today’s contest…..another Jones gift.

Congrats to the Boks, Poms didn't show much. Some nice back play from the Boks but all too rare.

"Mostert the Player of  the Match"

Not even close ...does a lot of stupid things, but he got a crucial line-out steal...Arendse was the deserved real MOM...kickass!!!

The fact is that we can be sure that Willemse should play art 13 - w here he has more space and NOT at 12.   Shows how stupid the comments on this site is.    

What was Mostert's contribution to the match?   Near to bugger-all - Arendse. is the Player of the Match.

Well done Nienabar and the boks, not a smooth match but destroyed the poms everywhere. 

Only poor players was Orie and Thomas Du Toit, although, don't think he intended to hit the guy in the head. 

Faf did well, real nuisance today. 

Arendse is the find of the season.

Roos had to slug it out today. No cantering today, but stood up well.

Frans Malherbe was a monster in the scrum and crocked two props. Very unlucky to get that penalty against him, poor ref call. 

Well that is a wrap for now,

Not sure what to make of the season. I think most teams are not up there. This was the boks year, but poor coaching and team selections. Hope they take note

Yes, I agree on Arendse, but I want to look at the game again because Willie also had a good match.

Almost right CleverMike. Willemse is an outside back. This win will be used to buy this coaching team some more time. Arendse world class? You've got to be kidding me. We are set up for another year of mediocrity. 

Bravo Bokke, great end to a kak season .................. good news, we have the talent to go all the way next year .

We do. Will they be assembled? Not likely. 

Actually the commentators got Mostert’s contribuion, like getting back to tackle Noll after he stepped Willemse and brushed off Kriel like a fly. 

Arendse, Willie and Willemse changed the match. Huge credit to Willemse for attacking from deep in his 22 and those 2 drops were clinical.

Still Mostert, who had an off day against France was money today. Well done to a player smarts, skill and heart.

Although, I don't know what to make of this England team. Lost to Scotland, finished 4th in the Six Nations, good come back against NZ for a draw but lost to the Bargies. 

Always look at the defensive line, their leverage, their spacing, and see what the running lines are. Don't think in terms of "England", "New Zealand", or perceived tendencies. Think in terms of each phase sequence and what the defensive pressure is. 

I told you I was worried ! 

As one who never wanted Jones in the first place, I’m counting down the days until he goes. He’s destroying us.

All I wish to say is that Mostert is worth his weight in GOLD.

Sure he like all players has a poor game sometimes but he was by far the best forward in Green and Gold on the field today and does really put everything on the line.

This is the best I have seen from the Bokke for awhile.

Willemse had a better game as well but he is by no means the Boks answer at #10.

Ardense sure can side step and run as the Poms found out today.

Pleased the Boks crunched the England forwards and that their hooker (LoudMouth George) has been silenced.

England haven't fielded a strong pack in over a decade. That era is long gone. They had better become a lot better at the running game of they want to stay relevant. 

We have so many decent players and Jones has ignored a number of them ever since he took charge. All those he selects play better for their clubs than they do England.
