What happened after the first 20 minutes though? Did we start believing our own hype? This arrogant shit that guys like Dave believe that we can push any combination of four players into any position and dominate world rugby? Good, timely lesson dished out by the Aussies today.

Well done to Joe Schmidt, he made the Boks defence look amateurish

The Ozzies were a little shell shocked at the start but as soon as they started believing, thr Boks crumbled.


And now we'll see the ABs whip Argentina in Argentina...because they actually respect the game and have been picking their best team and playing that team.

...and the hilarious thing is...Rassie will make changes again for next week...he has to...


Meaning we'll go to NZ still not knowing what our best side is.

I was right, Rassie rubics cube come to bite is in the ass.


His arrogance has gone too his head


Never got 7 in a row and the most luckiest of coaches on the planet to win 2 world cups.


Not a champion coach.


Fucking clown

MP they just outplayed the Boks. I watched them score, got up quickly to go get some food, and when I came back they had scored again. Boks kept kicking the ball away with the old pray and hope, didn't work out. I'll have to watch the game again to get a better idea.

The rush defense exposed because we missed first time tackles and there was wide open space behind.

& then there wus this ...

On a brisk Saturday at Paarl Gimnasium, the young guns of South Africa's U18 ‘A’ team found themselves steamrolled by a ferociously efficient French side, who clinched a 40-14 victory in the final bout of the U18 International Series. After a tightly contested first half, the French colts galloped away in the second, leaving the SA youngsters eating their dust with a series of unreturned tries.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to watch the game but just read this thread,

Did not see this coming at all, looking forward to the match highlights. Well done wobblies that has blown the competition wide open.


" Boks conceded 38 points without scoring. Must be the first time in history"


Sharkbok you forgetting the 57 unanswered points in 2017?

The breakdown started well, but totally fell apart. Boks struggled to get front foot ball thereafter

Bobbok can you maybe see if you can find a link to full game pls? Fuck man it’s like a dream especially after that first half.


The Boks must have been very poor second half…..so it’s strongly looks like if we play a more expansive game we loose our defence completely??


Are we doomed to be a Stampkar team that concentrates on forward play, kick and living only of counter attack to score tries?


I also think that OZ just proved that we are behind and desperately need new strategies.

MP this site loads up full replays, you'll need torrent software to download though I think.

So much for the best coach/manager the Springboks have ever had..... hey Dave.

He broke numerous records in losing this game and the new records set in this game will never be

broken or matched in our lifetime.


Whatever credit he had has gone south and he has lost most if not all support and trust from

Springbok supporters in general.


Back to the drawing boards I guess.

To late to fix the problem as the AB' s lick their chops.


Without doubt one of the poorest performances from Rassie and crew.


Unbelievable.
