Boks set up for another massive fail.

 

Playing guys out of position is a mistake we have made in the past and we never seem to learn from. Our loose trio will come up short again.

 

PSdT is a great player but in his position and the last time he played flank (against England i think), he was caught out badly. 

 

Frans Louw is been in solid form, but the linking No.8 we require for our current game, he will be nowhere as he plays direct to the ball. How we miss Whitely even more so Vermeulen.

 

An extra line out option is pointless if the hooker keeps missing his man. 

 

Also I feel we will miss Beast consistent average'ness, not sure what the story here!?

How ever this ends, today the Springboks are the better team

Listening to on R2000 and i must admit that from their commentator it certainly sounds like we have given a much better account of ourselves than 3 weeks ago. This Bok team has talent, I just wish Toetie was a good enough coach to get them to be as good as the All Blacks or better than them consistently!

Two tries off Bok mistakes

Territorial dominance by the Kiwis big time

 

Great set pieces by the Bokkies

Stunning defence

 

Very special match

Wonderful fanfare at Nuweland

 

Looking forward to more reviews

 

GO BOKKIES ????????????????????????

Massive improvement. Remember we were beaten by Italy last year. Not sure about big time territorial dominance Dale. Well into the second half stats were shown that for that half the Springboks had that advantage. Anyway whatever. It was a monster game.

Malcolm Marks

Kitshoff Rooikop

Forward brilliance

 

the ginger ninja did play well

 

We have slightly reverted back to the old style of bok play...with a little bit more ball in hand

 

but I am happy with the result despite the one point loss

 

Marks should have got man of the match ten times over..he was immense

Boks were the better team today, but simple mistakes costs us.

Then they couldnt have been the better team. They lost the game. The better team wins the game. Edited by Vetseun

Now watching the delayed live broadcast and I fully agree but also think we made a lot of unforced errors too. After the first draw against Aus I said that we had improved and I think we can now look at the 57 0 loss as an aberration rather than that our team not having progressed enough. They have. Tonight we can be proud of our team but still there is work to be done to be better in the November tests!

I was impressed how Kitshoff played, gave it his all. Allende was poor, his attempt to kick out to bring the first half to an end while the Boks were down only for the AB's to keep it live and for the rest of his game did nor really perform ending with his been sent off with red card with a late tackle. After last weeks poor skipper and leadership Etsebeth made amends and really stepped up. AB's made plenty of mistakes but overall and despite the loss for me the Boks were the better team.
