Springboks vs the Tiffosi

More' en ekwietiewatnie ...

Italy can just keep playing tennis like that please.

Tapping back these high kicks with oppo beyond the ball is crazy

Pretty lame end to that short period of attack with Willemse booting it into touch.

Willemse such a poor player, good with ball in hand, but can never actually link with other backline players

Droppie Pollard, 3-0. That smelt like capitulation as the Italians smacked us back.

Missing Wiese today, how many times has Kolisi been knocked back in contact

Line outs is a big mess today

This is game is confusing me. Drop cancelled, penalty Boks, 3-0 still off the penalty. Infringement before infringement.

"It's a little bit of a farce at the moment" says the commentator. Amen. Bok camp says there's no issue, but Steenekamp has to go for an HIA. Italy 13 hitting the Bok player in the head with the arm, fuck all from the officials.

Oh for the old days when Fergie McCormick could dislodge Syd Nomis’ teeth and the game went on….this is like a session in court.

How the hell was that a Red??!! What a Joke…Reffing is a Total Farce…congrats WR you bunch of wankers, you turning Rugby into a total joker!! WR must go!!!

Officials are forcing our players off for HIAs so Italy can get scrum dominance. 3-3

World Rugby can suck my dick right now, bunch of fucking cheats.

Boks score, fuck yes. Gives us another red you twatwaffles. 10-3 HT

Nice momentum try just before the half.

Van Staden gets the try…..very smart lead up kick by Pollard to get the Boks in scoring position. Italy doing a France…..they had to have 70% of the territory in that half.

Pakie watch that blood pressure!

As per usual, Kwotalisi is fucking useless. Well done to the boks for hanging in there.

Struggling with the stream

Nah fuck it Moz, this shit is worse than ou Maaik, haha.

Try this one KC, bit pop-uppy but usually fairly solid.

Livetv.sx can also go fuck itself….these cunts WR should just jump of a cliff….come on Boks lets fucking fuck these pizza eaters up!!! Nice Eskom LETS GOOOO!!!

Well unfortunately due to the almost immediate disruption so far we've had no insight into anything, like Hooker at 12 for example. And poor BJ Dixon sacrificed early.

Rugbystreams is better for me than Livetv the past few weeks. I'm watching the HD feed and once you click past the two or three popups it's plain sailing.

Unbelievable!

I just saw the Mostert tackle. That wasn't even a penalty FFS.

These guys keep ruining games and nothing happens.

Why does nothing happen? Well, they ban players for 8 weeks based on zero evidence, and there is very obviously an agenda.

I'm guessing Mostert will be banned for 6 years because of that tackle.

Let me start by stating thta the first half was a real nihtmare if you were a Springboks supporter,

Wllam was a good full back - but Mostert gpt red-carded t minute 13 of the game. I will refrain from the hysteria against De Jager that went with his rred-carding in minute 39 of the French test. Would love to see what the posters who attacked De Jager now deal with a card for a similar offence by Mostert.

For the rest the backline of the Springbos were nt a functioning unit,- bu hen they got vey few balls from Pollard, who seemed to be out of sorts and slow with effective line kicks and other kicks not really effective,.

Marco getting ice on the neck. I wonder why. Oh, a shoulder to the neck by Italy 5. Nothing to see here, move on.

Jesus we can't catch a single high ball.

Marco gets hit with a no arms tackle...isn't that also "never legal"?

Kolisi off. I'm sure we'll feel that loss. /sarcasm

Poor high kick, too deep, we pay for it with 50m.

Another high ball goes to ground. Not sure that's a viable tactic for us the way we're dropping them.

These assistent refs are ruining the game

High ball is a weapon for Italy now because we're useless under it.

Oh no, Italian down. Red card incoming.

Commentator making the point Willemse is a natural at 15

We could have done better for a clearance there, surely? There's a flyhalf that can kick too.

Willemse's positioning has been excellent, pity he can't catch the ball.

Great tackle Pollard on Menoncello. Boks down to 13.
