Poms kicking and niggling you to death.
Live Thread: The Dreadful Boks vs some determined dudes in white jerseys
12-6. Not looking good. Boks are feeding England and strangling themselves.
Horrible 1/2 of rugby.
Well that was a whole lot of nothing. We did literally nothing except kick and maul, both poorly. England just patiently taking what we give them for free and milking penalties. They're not even playing much rugby. Embarrassing.
Manie has less experience in these conditions, perhaps why Rassie pulled him off.
The worst area of the game has been the lineouts.
What is worrying is that the reserve hooker Fourie is not a renouned thrower. However, it cant be worse that what Bongi has delivered so far.
England has done better in arial game.
The mauls have not been great either.
Maul has been pathetic, but England might be entering from the side sometimes.
Althogh England are playing very well- very physical.
Boks without Marx are looking less physical.
Wiese might have been better on the bench in these conditions
The Boks at least have 2 fetchers on the bench. Expect Kolisi to leave on the 45th minute. Fourie will be on first, and then Kwagga.
Not sure how Kwagga will go in these types of conditions
Hopefully the bench does well, and the game opens up a bit and the Boks can get their wings into the games
Kiwi ref blowing us out of tbe game.
Have to beat 16 men.
Strange how suddenly Boks can do nothing right.
Crooked throws in line out by England ignored. Why that last penalty.
We are not out of this. Go BOKS!!!?
At a friend's house so won't be posting much.
Bear with the disappointment.
Schalk says energy levels not great.
Mallet talking about doubtful decisions including a yellow against Farrel.
Boks are shit Beeno, it's bloody England. Fiji nearly smashed them. Quit blaming the ref. We're not even trying to play rugby, just booting it back to them.
Libbok is garbage in all conditions. He has 0 good tests. He was garbage last week. The English are simply not allowing the Boks to settle in their Skop N Pop and P16 game plan. I don't think it'll last, and our bench has many deserved starters. The conditions were fine early on. Libbok's only weapon has been the wonky cross kick hoping it's uncontested.
Reinach impersonating Fluff with that kick.
And kick. And England ball. FFS.
I'm about to start cheering for England. Boks are dishing up utter bullshit. Lame ass safety first courageless bullshit.
Far more Bok retarding than ref retarding going on.
This is the extent of Erasputin's game. It's all he ever had.
He is, some bad calls keeping us in it, so far.
At last. The one eyed ref calls England for Crooked throw in!!!
Unloading the bench.
3yzebeth off!
Eben off?
Why is Kwagga not on yet? How many more minutes for Captain Invisible?
Delay, delay.
And ball is ripped from Kitsy. Two bashes into an "attacking m ove".
Kolisi drops the ball.
We kick it to England. They accept gratefully.
Faf offside. Not called. Need to be careful.
We have something of a loose trio now. Finally.
At last Captain Cockup is off and Kwagga is on.
Finally something from the Boks.
Skop N Pop failed there.
Scrum dominance right away as the slackers leave the field.
Like I said Poms kicking you to death.
England walk right over Arendse after fielding the kickoff, no protection for him. Droppie Farrell, 15-6.
How the Pom fans can be happy with this crap I don't know.
Kriel knocks.
Polly is wasted in this team.
And we kick it away again as soon as we lay hands on it.
JW, you compete against the Boks playing this way, because they can't play rugby. That's why I predicted a Scot and France loss, because they don't know how to play this kind of tripe.
South Africa are making so many basic errors.
Kick it away again.
