SA VS AU, 2017,September 30th,15-man rugby test match

It is coming. After a two week break, back to the usual drama.

 National anthems.

 Half empty stadium.

Not a bad opening passage by the Boks. Coetzee breaking in midfield like our centers are unable to do . 

Inaccurate passing out back breaks Bok momentum.  

Serfontein not much of a scrum half.  

 We on.

 Try AU . Easy breakthrough.

Boks bamboozled, Oz scores.  

 nil seven. SA players already looking like rabbits caught glaring at a searchlight.

Lots of activity but not much effect in the Bok backline.  

Try Boks, Dreyer. Good buildup.  

 Try SA. Built from pick and gos.

7-7

Great attack by Boks but unable to follow through. Passing behind or above players again breaking attacking momentum. 

Leyds doing a better defensive job so far than Rhule.  

 Hi guys, just got home to see Oz go ahead by 3 points.

 Boks even it up after some decent play.

Jantjies to equalize...with a little help from the pole.  

 Hi Cloudy. Go Boks.... please1

Little more commitment on defense all round today from the Boks.

Hello to the islanders.  

Wow, what a mistake from Foley.

Boks one offload away from a score. Now Oz on the counter.  

Haha, n ow where's he at?

Bit high, no need for the nonsense afterwards.  

I'm clearly a minute or so delayed  

Oh the hair. I see now.  

Apparently footage travels faster to NZ than across South Africa  

Hair pull deliberate and prolonged should have been a yellow.

Bloody hell Serf.  

Bumps a guy out of the way and then just throws the ball away.   

Yes JW, on what island are you hiding? Have someone told you that the war is over yet? 

 Packie, I'm in the US and while it could be characterized as isolationist geographically it is not an island

The US? Okay, let's step off the topic before this accidentally turns into a Tr*mp thread. 

I was having a cuppa in game, now I've got nothing to do during half time  

No sign of Beeno  or CC on this live thread, they must be hiding behind the coach as the tension is too much for them.

Beeno is probably "watching tennis" again   

Hopefully the guys took a shorter break over here and I'm back in real time again.  

nicely done. Kolisi made a fool of that Australian cover defender, with good supporting play. 

Kolisi channeling Lomu on the wing. Slow Serf barely makes it the 5 yards to the tryline.
