With nothing on today and the weather in Florida too cold for golf, I decided to rewatch the Pom game. After Farrell misses his first kick they say something along the lines of having now seen Stewart miss a high ball and Farrell miss a kick, what else could happen.
Then Farrell lines up his next kick and they say, having got the bad one out of his system, he should resume normal service and clipping these over is how England builds their lead…..he duck hooks it horribly… and they then speculate that some injury may be bothering him. But apparently Farrell’s tonsils are fine because he produces a loud ‘f -off’.
After some comments about England nullifying the Boks….Willemse then clips over a neat drop goal. Followed by some moaning about South Africa unexpectedly being in the lead….despite the fact that we have had the lion’s share of possession.
Then delightfully Willemse taking the high ball steps golden boy Stewart and Willie puts Arendse away, who leaves Smith for dead. To his credit the main Pom mouth calls it a work of art and goes on about Willie and Willemse. And for the rest of the half they berate the Poms…..but at 3 to 3 you would have sworn England had the game won.
