The wee abs have for the most part been bullied by the Bok forwards but they want to put a stop to this humiliation!

Hence their front row. One prop of 129 kg and the other 135 kg. Hooker of 110 kg.

But is this real muscle or the traditional nz lard lard?


Rassie has gone light wth Mostert, Notche and Kolisi. in my view he needs to at least have Snyman at lock.

Also please don't start wee Kolbe on the wing. We also need a better number eight. Try Du Preez?

Time to put the wee abs to the sword at loftus.

“We ABs” Hasbeeno? Does this mean you have turned the corner and are now supporting the greatest team ever?....

The All Black pack we faced was no pushover, Herr Sitzsack.

It is a big pack for New Zealand, probably their biggest ever.  

Let's see how mobile and fit they are in the last quarter, maybe we can turn the tables on them traditionally finishing stronger than other teams.

I was surprised to read that Jordie Barrett is 6.43 foot tall, and the tallest backline player to have ever played for the All Blacks- tied with Lomu

Beeno, the days of gifting you with free 14points is over  - the nanites Suzie slipped into Jordie and Anton's tea before the Test Match has been discovered and discarded. It was labelled "Extreme Stupidity Maximus"  - You don't believe me? Check this out = Suzie strikes again in SA slipping the same nanites in Kurtley Beale's tea pre-match

Come now if they had done a proper Welcome to Country Beale would never have thrown that Jordie Barrett pass.

haha Mozart, I think Jordie Barrett must have been watching the Former Tri-Nations Test in 2008  in Cape Town where Jean de Villiers was attempting to get the ball out of the South African 22m area when he threw a long pass, straight into Mealamu's grateful arms and the hooker made no bones in getting to the goal-line to score before anyone could stop him.

Except in this instance the All Blacks were ahead on the scoreboard and there was absolutely no need for Jordie to throw that pass and you maybe right in naming it the Jordie Barrett gift.

JW face facts we are fielding a small pack with three lightweights and we still did fine at scrum time etc.

Wonder though if Rassie is planning on running the nz lard boys off their puffy swollen feet?

Still we may have Mostert, Kolisi and Notche - all too small. On the wing we have high risk Kolbe. Or do we - lets see the team sheet first.

Thanks for the “clarification” Beeno although it still looks like a restatement of your fear of the ABs fearsome pack. But I do agree we have to see the selections before we draw conclusions. Hansen may decide to field our best team or he decide to keep building depth. Remember this is a dead rubber. Also remember that our first line front row is out injuredas is the best lock in the world.

Benno, 4 of our best are injured . Coles will be back soon as will Retallick & they will soon put that shrimp of a hooker & that steroid inflated Etzebeth in their place :) But for sure we will be in for a good test this weekend. Please ask mrs Beeno to give you your meds before kickoff as you will be in for a rough ride :)

Cody looks a better tight forward than Coles who keep bumping into bent reed on the wing!

As for Retardlick he is always happy to miss playing the Boks and facing Eben!

No excuses now JW, remember we are not even allowed to pick a merit based side.

Boks have looked much improved in the last two games but is it improvement inflated by the hot aired windbags that make up their fans? Will wee cc “turn” back to the Boks & give his full half hearted support to them? So many subplots to the drama, lol I will be paying close attention to the questions that surround the AB selections.
