Mighty Boks versus wee Irish

Width for Ireland but again their passing lets them down. Not looking too flash out back.

Ja they don't look happy Beenz.

So who got the touch down. Irish knock forward. 

Willemse charged down, race between Ireland 2 and Kriel for the touchdown. Looks like an Irish knock.

They push too wide too early. 

Our scum not getting anywhere yet. 

What ref. No means no! 

Willemse again a little casual with the free kick there.

Kriel defending well. Boks hold off a strong Irish attack.

We play a fine line. So linear, but lots of space to be exposed. Can we sustain that physicality? 

Frans not using his arms. 

Lood goes off. Mostert on. Big test for him. 

Mostert on for Lood who walks off with his arm slung in his jersey. Penalty Ireland right in front.

Ireland lead 6-3.

Quality for quality. Not a problem. Mostert has great endurance. 

Murray also off for Ireland.

Clever grubbers. The greatest of all kicking weapons! 

Nice little stab through by DA for Kriel.

Bit lucky not forward pass, but still, we are looking dominant. 

Boks lose a lineout. Still in a good position for another one as Ireland clears.

Furlongh having his boots polished.

Handbags at 12 o clock.

Irishmen dropping like flies. We'll win this by 10+.

Easy penalty for Boks which should bring things level at the half if Kolbe can kick at all. Only just but it's 6-6.

This Bok team dare not go to next years' WC.

Last 20 min is gonna be interesting... Usually is .

We on.

What a game.

SC VS FI: pleasing game.

WA VS NZ: exciting game

IR VS SA rugby: the downer, the party pooper

Remains FR VS AU. No matter how good it is, the taste of the non game involving SA rugby will remain.

Half time comments were marginally more interesting than the actual game so far.

Wish Nick Mallett was Bok coach again!

The ref has disappeared. The crowd are reffing this game.

Mallet pointed out the refs mistakes. 

Damn Wiese! 

I generally stick up for refs but this guy is hopeless.

Time for some changes. Use the bench. 

The Boks have been a shambles. Need to bring Willie Leroux onto the pitch, move Kolbe to wing, and take one of the wings off

Koch upgrade. 

Ireland gaining some momentum now. Easy penalty. Few passes looked marginal in that sequence.

Let off!

Let off!

I think that's a bad call!
