You called me some pretty harsh things without providing any facts so I think its only right that I settle this outright. You said Australia have a shit scrum and never dominate the Boks. Well lets look no further than last year in Australia. The Boks lots two scrums on their own feed to Australia and Australia won all their pwn comfortably. Jannie was penalised three times at the scrum and Australia used that as a platform to get points on the board and win the game! 

Against Scotland earlier this year the Boks lost two balls on their own feed, Scotland 0. This time Beast was dominated and conceded two penalties. The entire front row buckled.

Next, Autumn international last year at Twickenham, England won all their feeds and South Africa lost 1 and Jannie penalised twice there. Bok scrum struggled.

Scotland EOYT 2012, South Africa lost three balls on their own feed and Gurthro penalised twice. Do Boks have loosehead troubles agaoinst Scots? seems that way to me.

Argentina last year in first test, Boks lost 1 on their own feed and Argentina nothing. Boks had lots of resets.

First New Zealand test in New Zealand, Boks lost two balls on their own feed and New Zealand none!

SEASON 2010

South Africa played Wales in June and lost 2 balls on their own feed, Wales none. South Africa played them again in Nove,ber and lost 1 ball on their own feed and Wales 0.

England 2010, Boks lost 3 balls on their own feed.

SEASON 2011

First Australia test, Kruger penalised 3 times at scrum time and Greyling twice (I cant verify the secoind 100%). Boks lost 2 balls on their own feed.

Bok scrum pulverised again in New Zealand and they lost 2 balls on their own feed, and again New Zealand capitalised on that on attack.

Boks lost 1 at home to Australia and Aussies also lost 1 pretty even here and not many penalties given by either side. Parity.

At home to New Zealand and Jannie agaon penalised 3 times and Bok scrum dominated at scrum time.

SEASON 2009

Boks lost 2 balls on their own feed to Australia in first test in Australia. Boks again lost 2 in the loss the following week to Australia

Boks lost 1 ball against France but were penalised 6 times at the scrum! Smit getting 3 of them. Domination bitches!! ;)

South Africa lost 3 balls on their own feed against Italy, and as usual, the opposition 0.

Lions 2nd test Boks lost 2 on their own feed and Lions 0.

---------------------

Man this goes on and on. We all remember Wales scoring a pushover try against the Boks under Jake, the Scots doing the same in 02, ore how the Boks were mercilessly slaughtred in the scrum in 07 at home to the All Blacks. It goes on and on. Mate you just have to fess up and admit it, you were wrong. Boks get bitched by everyone!

Oh what crap, there is no way in hell SA have lost that many tightheads, you are speaking shit. Much like a penalty against is no reflection on a scrum, its often a poor call by a ref. 

 

There is no way in hell any international scrum would get the better of a Bok tightfive comprising Beast, Bismark, Jannie, Etzebeth and Steph du Toit.......just not going to happen.

 

Much like a Oz scrum dominating a Bok one or Scotland for that matter. The Bok scrum has owned the Pom pack for a good few years now.

 

As I said, you are speaking complete shit

There are no facts in any of what you say, do you think I am naive enough to think that because a prop is conceding a penalty he is being beaten, go tell that to Krockett. Only a rugby ignoramus would conclude as much.

 

I know for a fact that there is no issue with the Bok scrum as will be witnessed in the upcoming Championship. You are speaking shit and just like my opinions dont bother you, your crap does not bother me.

 

There are issues with our coach who is useless, who is incapable of selecting the best 15 and incapable of implementing a modern game plan........one thing that is not an issue and that is our scrums

 Ihi the British Lions made fools of the Wallaby scrum, usually England do the same.

 

Any international team would like to scrum against Australia. Wait for the new rules and we are really doing to see the Wallabies suffer.

 

The Wallabies are a great side but the weakest aspect of their game is the scrum.
