Mighty Boks versus wee abs offical match thread

 Grounded short. Scrum to Boks.

 naturally the call goes against Boks ala wobblies try

Red zone infringments with multiple offsides

 Boks have been down on AB line for ages, looks like they are going for the kick.

 Illegal offisde by wee abs. That is 2 red zone infringements but no yellow. 
Boks sink penalty to keep lead

 Boks ahead by 3 after 56 mins.

 Good call Ref- multiple infringements in the red zone

 Whitelock gets a yellow.

 Third red zone infringments by cheating wee abs and yellow is given! Pro cheats.
Should we go for scrum?

 Can the boks win the scrum with a 1 man advantage?

 Flip is on, yellow card please

 Trev is on, Boks one man advantage in scrum but AB put in.

Blood bin for Koch.
Looses ball. Lets drill the wee abs scrum!

 ABs clear ball. Boks missed a chance.

 Cole is off so another rookie on. ABs win a Bok throw.

 Why make it uncontested?

Abs miss penalty. Could be a critical mistake.

 Soppy misses again.
Just as well as Boks have been very domin ant. But lots subs on.

 TJ is on. Game has slowed down.

 Boks wanted uncontested scrums

 Another lost line out for Boks.

 Held up.Injuries have no t helped our cause.

 Finally Beeno you have found your voice. ABs kick for touch. They want to win it here.

 ABs score, Richie does it again.

 Kick is good

Old split the line out ploy works for wee abs.

 ABs win the maul. Scrum AB.

 Lambie gets it wrong.

 Forward pass Boks, wheels are falling off.

 Silly forward pass.Bench players struggling. But when the quality players return it wont be a problem.

 Off side Boks, kickable penalty. Kick is good 20-27. Congrats to ABs, good game. Boks looked good for the first half but lost their mojo.

 Congrats NZ.  See you at the WC! 

Congrats to the NZ brigade here 

 Well both coaches should have got some answers. Sopoaga ok for a first start with real pressure. Broadhurst, I don't think he did so well we will have to see the analysis. Cody did ok.
Kriel did ok for boks. Boks lost at least 3 lineouts.

 Cheers to the Saffas and their most excellent team ,theres nothing like an ABs boks game eh ?

 Tough luck Beeno and boys. It was a thriller in the first half. Boks should be happy with their backs at least Kriel was great. 

 Why did the Boks go to uncontested scrums? An historical submission to AB will?

 Habana incensed by ab holding onto him. He then drives into ruck illegally.Penalty to abs.These guys are serial cheats no question about it. Three red zone infringements to prevent Bok tries now this.
There can though be little doubt the returning players who should be ready for RWC will see the Boks playing very well.Irefer to the likes of:Kitshoff - to me a lot better than NyankaneDu Toit - better than Flip.Vermulen - no need to commentMarcell
BacksWe need Faf fit. Will need to see how Du Preez isJean, Vorster and Combrinck should be in mix.
What is certain is that a very powerful Bok side can be picked and a very powerful bench as well. A side very capabale of winning the World Cup.
Not bad at all.
Allende and Kriel outplayed the wee abs centers and our starting side was better than the wee abs. Given the extra quality available the bench will contain high quality players. 
Provided we get our top players into the match day squad the wee abs should not prove too much of a problem at the RWC

 Hi Wardad, Piutau wins man of the match. Another player stepping up when he got his chance. Burger looks like his body is broken .

Good positive rugby from Boks. Great team is in the making. Bok chances of winning RWC are climbing.
