Did they secure one ball from all those kicks in the second half …offensive or defensive. Very poor coverage at the back by Hogg and Duhan. But they persisted with a losing tactic.


Much better play by the Bok pack….Kolisi showed up for a change, and our reserve props showed up the weakness in Sinkler and Sutherland. Our maul splintered them time and again


The Lions also conceded a stream of gratuitous penalties. So the game was won  with Bok possession in the Lions 22 and uncovered tactical kicks.


Advantage Boks for the third test with Lions’ headaches in the back 3 and front row. Was Harris actually on the field one might also ask.

Amazing how Rassie sorted out the ref nonsense and the team seeing hé is no good as a coach.

A half done Bok side missing key plays dominated that second half. 

Hahahahahaha.

Unfortunately Du Toit was injured as he would have got a 3. But the O rg can still complain about Allende and squawk about how physical Kwagga is.

 Excuse me but I find this hilarious.

So your point is O’Keefe would have called it differently if not for Erasmus pathetic video?

Note how the réf respected Kolisi.

That told the story.

Congrats to Rassie. Refs now know shaft the Boks and the rugby world will see all your many mistakes. 

Love it.

Kolisi was treated like he always is. This notion that he is intentionally disrespected is nonsense fabricated by Josè. 

The Lions are not playing to their strengths and it's going to cost them the series.
