Took plenty of line out ball and was physical in virtually every one of his carries - something the utterly useless Mostert is never
So good to see him there instead of the physically inept Mostert
When was PSDT stripped of the ball, like useless Mostert was against Oz?

Note PSDT’s movement in the first Bargie try.
He basically creates the gap by getting up and running to the side where there are already enough Bok defenders…leaving he hole that results in the try.

And Mike…you yet again gave DDA one of the highest ratings on the day.
Should you really be mentioning “BS on the site”?

It's all to do with pride.
Stupid Dave and Comrade Mike suffer from the same condition.
Admitting they've got it wrong ... again ... and again ... and again ... can he rather embarrassing ... especially when they try so hard to come across as knowledgeable posters.
I mean how would you feel if your so called expertise is called into question at ever turn?
You're supposed to be the boards whizz kid ... and when the others suddenly find out that you dont even know the basics ... well, that can he a problem ... right Stupid?
Best plan of action is simply to deny the facts ... even when they stare you in the face.
That and finding a suitable excuse.

I’ll keep it really simple Moz as you say his physical carries amount to a dead end
Well yes they do, he is a fucking blindside flanker not a wing - what do you expect from him, him running brilliant lines, stepping the odd defender etc
I said I’d keep it simple - his role in the Bok side and in particular the Bok side as they pride themselves on the physical stuff is to carry the ball in traffic, which is exactly what he does and he does it very well, he does it in exactly the same way as Eben and Lood do and he does it no better or no worse than both of them.
Each carry gains forward momentum sometimes a metre sometimes more, but it’s forward momentum setting up the next phase - it’s what the Boks do a lot
Now why PSDT is good at it, is because he mostly does breach the advantage line with each carry, there is forward momentum gained whereas with Mostert we don’t get that and therein lies the difference and why useless Mostert forever finds himself as a stop gap player at lock or 7. The ONLY reason Mostert never starts when all our players are fit is because of that lack of physicality
We all know he gets around the park a lot, we know he takes his line out ball and makes those nice process tackles but it’s that lack of physicality in his carries, clean outs, scrums and tackles that see him benched
So in a nutshell PSDT provides physicality and Mostert does not - it’s that simple
You get forward momentum in traffic with PSDT but with Mostert you don’t
Hope this helps but of course it won’t as you just can’t see how feeble Mostert is when it comes to being physical
PSDT is bigger, heavier and stronger than Mostert - it’s that basic

Yes he should have stayed left - had he stayed left would no try have been scored - NO
Fuck sake look where the try was scored

Wake the fuck up as Swys says we have the best defence around but none of these players are perfect, they make mistakes
You bunch of fucking ignorant idiots keep bashing players recognised the world over as amongst the best in their respective positions
Fuck it’s both pathetic and boring

Well Moz nor does Eben break tackles so is he also shit?
You generally don’t break tackles in traffic 95% of the time, because hey ho the guys doing the defending are just as physical at the ones doing the charging

Agreed PSDT is not back to his best but he has been more than solid
Frans Steyn and Vermeulen need to bloody retire
