Mighty Boks versus wee Irish

Genius coach hasn't had too much involvement with the side but Rassie tends to get the Boks going. 

I haven't watched much rugby this year so looking forward to see where the Boks are. 

I hear Wilkemse is dynamic at fly half but goal kicking not too good. For the future a center combo of Pollard at 12 and Am at 13 could work. The pack looks good but I see that Snyman will only start playing again next year. Great shame.

Doubtless if things go wrong it will all be Allende's fault and if we win its dispute of him. Some things are very predictable!  Trad will make his moronic comments and if things go wrong there will be wailing and nashing of teeth. Personally I have the feeling the Boks will give a good account o f of themselves. 

Loose forwards selected suggest a running game. Conditions not too bad temp at 12 degrees which is great. 

Hope ou Rooitwit will be supporting the Boks. What happened to Wale s? 

Not a great start. 

Ireland lead 3 nil. 

Penalty in front for Ireland. Did look to me like Ireland 13 was marginally in front of the kicker but hard to call without a replay. 3-0.

Boks not going for posts but on attack. Good defence from wee Irish. But Bok penalty.

poles ... good call

Greetings Pakster. It's 3 all. 

Hey Beeno. Howz it Blikkies.

Boks meeting with strong physical resistance from the Irish.

Nice tackle Kriel. Damian's followup slipped.

Du Toit playing well. 

Great take in the air Willemse. High from Kolbe. Boks get the ball back. Even physical contest so far.

951 kg pack! Malherbe carrying some weight. 

46 tackles made by Ireland to 9 by the Boks. Lots of possession for us.

Boks bossing physically dispite ou Pakster comments. 

Ireland looking to run out of their 22 and in trouble as a pass goes astray. Scrum Boks.

Exactly Pakster 

Haha, pretty even physically Beeno, Boks have to fight for every yard.

This could be a softening up process. 

So far so good oaks. Boks look wide awake and mean business. Not like last time we played them in that embarrassing loss. 

Some cotton wool up some Irish noses, get on with it boys.

And some bandages around some Bok knees.

Frans Malherbe asking Etzebeth if he knows Clevermike at all.

Let's hope the ref keeps hokeeps honest.

Looks like trouble for Cheslin. 

Ireland slow to the lineout. Great spot tackle Kriel but a fraction too late and the gap opens. Good gain for Ireland. Officials heading back across field for some incident or another. Kolbe and Steph in trouble, tipped past the horizontal.

Yellow for Cheslin. 

Man you need to keep your head.

Really dumb stuff the both of them.

Great spot tackle Mapimpi. Try saver.

Ireland just can't get crisp accurate passes away right now under the Bok defensive pressure.

DA burrows a few meters. High tackle against Sexton.

Easy penalty missed by Willemse.

Good counter ruck by Boks, another penalty in front. Touch this time. Solid defense by Wiese and Marx.

Bok maul disintegrates. Penalty Ireland, Boks off their feet.

Cheslin back. Great work Boks. 

Lack of a goal kicker is a worry. 

The referee seems a bit awry. The 23:15 attack by us was stopped prematurely by a penalty (good try chance) , but we were let off a couple of times. It's very hard to get a sense for how things should be now. 

Hahahaha Ireland a little rattled eh Pakster.
