Springboks VS Argentina- official thread

The Boks are playing pathetic- forward pass by Pollard

 boks getting hamm ered in the scrum.

Thomas the pigeon tackled Schalk without the ball

 wee willie scores a try.

 Pollard converts. 20-34 50 mins.

 argies are changing players we will see if they can keep the same level of performance.

 Cometh the hour, cometh the man; Where art thou Damian?

 Bismarck is off.

 sharkbokkie if the whole team is paying badly they are clearly not taking the match seriously. lets apply reason to the problem. Boks wre better than Oz and wee abs. oz and wee abs dispatched Argies with realative ease. Hence very obvioulsy B oks are not taking all this seriously.
You cant fault that logic oaks!

Pathetic mistakes by the Boks-no game plan

 Willie passes forward to Hab ana.

On comes Reinach! LMAO!!!!

 Soon we will have Whiteflag.

 Beeno, don't kid yourself, they took this game seriously. 

Did I hear someone call for uncontested scrums?

 argies get a drop goal. 63mins

The Boks are going to lose this game. They are looking hopeless.Enter Lambie

 Mr. Been,

"Boks are not taking all this seriously"

you cannot be more pathetic!!!!!!!!!!!

and if they are not taking it seriously they should, they are pro palyers and they are representing SA

 Lambie is coming on for Pollard.

 Here comes Flub Whiteflag (stage name is Pat Lambie)

 If it wasn't over before it is now.

 Argies are tackling like demons.

 what a mess.

 Commentators don't sound confident about the bok scrum at all.

Shame the stupid Saffer commentators setup the "fans" for disappointment by glossing over cracks with misplaced praise.

 7 mins to go boks are down by 17

 So many disgraceful things about this game: 
- Our Scrumming- Our handling- The Ref- The game management by the senior players to not let this game get away from us

We need Jannie back, his alternatives are just not ready yet, maybe be they will be in a couple years but not for this WC

This fecking ref, man

 Handling is an issue when you are being shutdown and cannot get across the gainline, not the other way around. 

 Yellow card argies down to 14.

 Stephanie has been useless. Every touch he makes is an error.
Well done Argentina- they played really well

If you're mishandling the ball as often as we are then it's a huge issue, regardless. In this game particular where we've struggled in the scrums, mishandling and giving them away is game suicide.
We miss Jannie and Duane big time.

Habana scores a try with 2 mins left.

 Our options were being shutdown, that leads to hesitancy ad players are then required to improvise yet gel as units. It doesn't work, so that's a mini battle won for the Argies.

I'm not disagreeing desert, our handling and on-field thinking needs to be better though. How would you sort this mess out if you were in charge desert?

 Can't really blame Du Toit, obviously he's only recently back from injury so he needs to knock off the cobwebs. Whether he can do that by WC time remains to be seen.

 Two big upsets this weekend but you have to say the Argies win is a shock. Congrats to them & very well deserved. Boks will be troubled by this result. Things just didn't click today for the boks, they were outplayed. Four losses in a row, no wins in the RC.
Congrats again to the Argies, commiserations to the boks & their fans.

 Huge victory for the argies!!!!!!!

As the TV says, Boks have lost 7 of the last 11 games and the last 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
but nothing wrong with it, Beeno says that "Boks are not taking all this seriously"

 Meyer sonder sy eier ... net n paar windeiers.
Let the arguments begin.

 I am not surprised. The only doubt I had was in whether Argentina would switch on mentally. No shock at all given the lineup.
