ESPN vs Auge - Round 1

The wriggly wee wirm is on the run again. 

No - you are the most ignorant commentator on rugby \issues ever.

Coming from you, those are reassuring words. 

But Dave in similar circumstances you happily said Mostert missed the tackle.....except Mostert actually brought the guy to  ground:

Bullshit nowhere in the law does it say a tackle is effected if said player is able to continue forward, which is exactly what Tuilagi did. A tackle is effected if you bring a player down and he stays down 

With Ford is was a straightforward one on one miss by Mostert. Mostert gets a hard on Ford who slips past him but thankfully is tackled by another Bok 

Mostert missed two tackles - it’s both a fact and beyond debate 

You have the utter stupidity to being this thread back.  LMAO

Nope.....Mostert actually brings the man to ground and because he is clattered into by Marx he doesn’t manage to hold on......in Lomp’s case the number 8 only puts a knee on the ground and never stops moving forward.

Lomp’s tackle is way less an effected  tackle than Mostert’s.

Some consistency please!

But what about Steyn's tackle in the RWC final which you called a try saving tackle that was not a tackle at all.   Remember that one?  

I would not go back. to the rugby of 2018 tory and find a fault with a player and ignore his later contributions.   On last years performances performances Mostert was lucky to be in the WC squad - he cannot make open field tackles and there are plenty examples of that.  Mostert is a powder-  puff player and unlikely to make the Springbok squad in future. 

Mostert’s tackle, player brought to ground.....Steyn’s hard open field tackle after Dud Allende missed Watson , player brought to ground....Lomp’s tackle, player not brought to ground.

It’s that simple.

I have never ever seen a "tackle" like Steyn made,   Steyn stood upright when Watson ran into him and basically pushed him out of the way, but lost his balance in the process.  Du Toit did prevent Watson from getting up and scoring a try as well as causing him to knock the ball on,  .   De Allende never got near enough to Watson to tackle him - he tried desperately to get to Watson - even making a dive - but never touched Watson in the process.   

Your description as to what happened in the incident was just a joke in desperately trying to mislead site members in your normal way, .    

Ja Dud Allende tried desperately to tackle Watson but slow as a cart horse, never got close enough...Steyn did and brought him down. Dud Allende also missed May in the in goal area at the start of the game when a try was beckoning. Dud Toit should also have been penalized for diving on Watson.

Duds doing what they do best.

I guess that sets the record straight.

You are lying again - shame on you.   IN both cases it was the case where De Allende came from the inside to get to the players and in  the case pf May what happened was exactly the same as was the case of the attempted tackle by Farrell on Kolbe before the latter scored his try,  Why dio you always loose perspective when dealing with certain players? .       

DdA was in the top 10 of our RWC effort...no superstar but crucial to our game plan...we had a flanker plauing inside center and a hybrid center playing flank...difficult to defend unconventional attacks. 

They can help short sightedness Dave.....see a competent optician.

Damian was a non entity, our best 12 wasn't in the squad because of our shortsighted "coach". Damian is not even a specialist 12, he is and always will be a wing at heart. A failure to transition into a position he has shown no aptitude for. He is a 2/10 at 12 at best. He was embarrassing in the final. But lets not allow that to get in the way of a fictitious fanfiction. 

Madness reigns supreme in the case of AO thrown together with total deception by Mozart.  

So May never beat Dud on the outside...and Farrell wasn’t stepped by Kolbe. Oops they were....so where’s the deception?

If you did not see how May stepped De Allende you must be blind - but you still are misleading the Board members with your BS.  May beat De Allende by stepping on his incide stupi d.     

Gosh it was even worse than I remembered .....Allende was so afraid of May’s pace he overcommitted, May literally stopped .....and Allende ran past him. And then he gassed Allende. 

He had the Pom  wing totally trapped against the touch line and couldn’t even pull off the tackle and then got left behind. Look at the Kolbe try for a step.

Fortunately a few minutes later Vermeulen earned a turnover penalty and we went 3 up.

As for the Watson missed tackle, Dud was done for Pace. Horribly in a few strides.....left for dead. Two open field tackles, two missed. Dud can process tackle where there is no space for the runner. Ask him to bring down a good runner in open field and he is lost.

Mozart -caught out and  you are just going deeper into distortion.   Keep it up -  Youi are getting deeper into shit street all the time  and it is really funny.  LOL .
