3. M Steyn is a weak link. Last week it was mostly his place-kicking, but this time round it was that, and some poor tactical kicks and options. Time to test an alternative.

I agree with you, i think they should give Peter Grant a run at 10. Its a pity Goosen is injured because it would of been interesting to see if he would get a selection.

Goosen is definitely there for the future.

He's stil young and has years on his side.

So too does Elton.

 

Would love to see Grant in the green and gold.

He's been in the woods for a while when it comes to Springbok selection.

Set that dial!

 

Baby Boks vs Baby All Blacks tomorrow night in the Junior World Cup final.

I'm going. Think there's going to be a good vibe at Newlands.

Baby Boks must rock up with the same mind set for the England game.

 

NZ were also beaten in this competition so i think its going to be a good match up

NZ vs Baby Boks about to kick off. Barney's Army vs Sharks about to kick off! What to do!

 

Go Baby Boks! In the other game I have no idea.... love Smit, love the Sharks....

[Clinton1]

Don't get some of these Capetonians... wearing NZ colours but singing the SA anthem... make up your minds idiots.

 

Awesome crowd and atmosphere though.

[Clinton1]

Well done Baby Boks! Junior rugby world champions for 2012! Nice one. Now for the whitewash tomorrow.

[CAAD4]

Pity so few of them are more than likely to make the senior squad, if Jake White's U21 victory was anything to go by a good few years ago.

The vibes must've been amazing... I could feel it through the screen.

 

Brilliant brave bulldozing Baby Bokke!

That rolling maul... :-)

Ended up not going - had tickets but had a client issue to resolve at 5PM. Watched on telly though. Great game. Mates called me from the stadium just afterwards - vibe was awesome, I'm told. Well done Bokkies!!

Boks vs England:

 

Ruan Pienaar's service is awesome.

He has earned the nr 1 scrummie spot.

Open your eyes, Heyneke... :-0

['Dale]

A draw.

England will be the happier side as they played away from home.

 

Missed goal kicks by Steyn cost the Boks in this brawl.

Time to try a new flyhalf.

[Bianchisti]

I'm sure P Divvy is the happiest man in the world tonight. Just to hear the entire SA bitching about the team, play, coach and management and knowing it wasn't personal against him.

Morne should have gone to the wedding instead...

 

Kicking the ball away to an England player waiting in the 25m area, while we have an overlap in the backline, ridiculous. No wonder the crowd started to jeer at him.

[Clinton1]

I've said it before. Morne has always been a one trick pony (goal kicker) but not he seems to have forgotten even that trick. It is time to give someone else a try. Pollard (junior Bok flyhalf) is too young but how we could do with someone like that in the senior Bok team. With a flyhalf that rarely runs on attack the defense have one less thing to worry about. He must be given a "break".
