All -10


Except 


Pollard + Ox = 100

Oct 21, 2023, 21:07

I expect to see that in the media. Miss 60% tackles? 9.5 :D

Oct 21, 2023, 21:11

Captain Invisible - 1 pass, 0 runs, 0 meters, 7 tackles, 2 penalties.

Oct 21, 2023, 21:11

Well, Boks had a horrid game and still won. That says something.

Oct 21, 2023, 21:13

Jesse Kriel's attacking stats - 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Turnovers conceded 1

What a game we played where our 13 touched the ball just once, knocking it on. Cock and balls rugby, holy shit.

Oct 21, 2023, 21:13

When you need P16 to bail you out, it's not great. Hence, it's a loss for rugby. 

Oct 21, 2023, 21:18

We win again.... sorry England.

Oct 21, 2023, 21:20

England forwards easily dominated a kicking game. England's fullback was exceptional under the high ball. (Freddie?)

The team chosen did not seem that well-suited to wet weather conditions. Totally outmuscled in the first 50 minutes. 

The scrum in the 2nd half saved the Boks. (Ox).

1 Steven Kitshoff: 3.5
I think the Ginger Ninja is finished. The scrum is crap when he is on the field. He does a few blubber rolls on the ground after carrying into traffic to gain a few inches.
I would prefer to have Nykani starting, or on the bench. 

2 Bongi Mbonambi  4.0
Lineouts in the first half were poor, and just okay in the second half.

3 Frans Malherbe  3.5
Remember when he used to contribute outside the scrum? Flab Malherbe is past it. When last has he played well? 

4 Eben Etzebeth - 5.0
Not good. Lineouts improved with Snyman. 

5 Franco Mostert - 4.0
Crap. Why Snyman is not starting is confusing.

6 Siya Kolisi - 2.0
He is being carried. Fourie was much better. He contributes nothing at the breakdown and has done little else since his miracle recovery for the World Cup. If he is not fit, why is he playing?
Give Bongi the captaincy, and start Fourie.

7 Pieter-Steph du Toit - 6.5
One of the better Boks

8 Duane Vermeulen. 5.5
Not bad, but not good

9 Cobus Reinach  5.0
Was poor, Faff was better.

10 Manie Libbok  5.0
Not great in the poor weather conditions, but hopefully next week we will have better weather.
Made a terrible up-and-under kick that went backward. 

12 Damian de Allende  6.0
Rarely got the ball, but looked strong at the end

13 Jesse Kriel  4.5
Rarely seen on the pitch, but the backs got such poor ball for most of the game - hard to totally blame him

14 Kurt-Lee Arendse  5.0
Made some mistakes in the air. It would have been better to have chosen a bigger player - Moodie in the wet conditions. Very little opportunity

15 Damian Willemse  4.0
Poor, Willie Leroux should start in the final. When he has a bad game, he looks like a utility player who does not know the position. 

11 Cheslin Kolbe - 6.0
Little opportunity, but a livewire that draws defenders

REPLACEMENTS:

16 Deon Fourie - 7.5/10 
Easily better at Kolisi - especially in wet weather. 

17 Ox Nche - 10/10
Surely man of the match. Without him, the Boks would have lost

18 Vincent Koch - 7/10
Made more contributions than Flab Malherbe

19 RG Snyman,     9/10
Brought new life to the Bok pack

20 Kwagga Smith   7.5/10
Brought high tempo to the Boks and more competition around the rucks

21 Faf de Klerk   7/10
Did all the basics well, with little to no errors. 

22 Handre Pollard  9/10
His final kick was difficult and world-class. It won the game

23 Willie le Roux.   7/10
Looked a bit better than Willemse in positional play. 

Oct 21, 2023, 21:28

Just to correct everyone on here. 

All bok players minis ten. They were rubbish. 

Kwotalisi who? 

Bongi missing throws etc. 

We had no physical edge. Deon Fourie and RG making a difference. 

Those two can probably go into 7.5

But the rest were shit 

Oct 21, 2023, 21:28

Mostert made 18 tackles (double the closest second) and stole a lineout. He wasn't much on the carry, but he seldom is.

Oct 21, 2023, 21:41

I've been defending Willemse nearly all season, but this was a howler from him. So now the wet weather is the excuse of the day. The team that is all about set pieces and kicking and supposed power play aren't good in the wet? What garbage. Libbok hasn't had one good test. England lost, but they showed who and what this Bok clown show was all along. 

Oct 21, 2023, 21:59

Well, these chicken shit steppers looks amazing in draw weather when the field is fast and dry. Libbok and the Stormers dropped a lot of games in the URC. Manie can't play in wet conditions. Neither can Arendse or Willemse. Only Kolbe had a half decent game 

Wonder if they will swing the axe or same team. Players looked tired and passed it. 

We also started doing better when kwotalisi went off 

Oct 21, 2023, 22:02

Libbok and Arendse are not good in any weather. Libbok is a poor man's Ismael Dollie and Arendse can run really fast in open space. Libbok hasn't shown any aptitude or talent for test rugby in any of his tests. He is death to attacking rugby. Willemse has been the only good Bok on attack aside from Esterhuizen all season. It was just a bad game, and I'm willing to accept that as an anomaly. We haven't seen the Boks play good rugby in six years, and the heart of the rot needs to be taken to the gallows. 

Oct 21, 2023, 22:11

Simple if any of you folks think LIbbok deserves any points you are either stupid, related to him or both.

He is way out of his league and a disaster to Springbok rugby espically in this WC.

I cut him some slack earlier but he is not an international standard #10.

Rose, Libbok and Jantjies all disappointed.

Clueless with or without the ball.

Klaar and finish.

Oct 22, 2023, 02:47

We are totally hopeless of course but are in the FINAL.

Suck it up snowflakes!

Imagine if we win the cup. These oaks will be inconsolable. :D

Oct 22, 2023, 04:54

Boks as I feared looked flat, low on energy hence the reason they were dominated for most of the game by an average English side with a simple kicking strategy. 

Oct 22, 2023, 06:58

Weather forecast for Saturday...

Plaine, Seine-Saint-Denis, France

Rain showers in the evening becoming a steady light rain overnight. Low 13C. Winds SSW at 15 to 25 km/h. Chance of rain 70%

Oct 23, 2023, 15:41

Well the Stormers players in the Bok team will be/should be in their element then.

Not so?
