I heard that the game between Fiji and Tonga was a clash of the titans, Fiji pulled through. Samoa has drawn with Georgia! To take note, the majority of these islanders are contractually bound to clubs in Europe locking them out of the internationals.

Sure these guys will get better as time ticks on, but we are falling behind.

The Springbok game has not evolved with the rest of the world's top rugby playing nations. The style has changed and we simply do not have the potential to play this sort of game. We have no vision on the field, we play dumb predictable physical rugby - oh right, we've always played that way.

Not to mention we do everything at snail pace..Lambie's own fault for what happened to him. He took his time with that kick

Flame suit on

Very disappointing, although I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt for now (unlike a lot of you guys it seems). They're a new unit at the start of the international season (whereas Ireland are at the end of theirs and have been together for several months now). I think we'll see a marked improvement in the next game.

Next week we will play them inside Ellis Park, the worst international pitch in the Southern Hemisphere. They will be soiling themselves.

Not really. Why?

If so, how do you not understand the amount of grief and abuse dealt to him when the Boks were beating his team? I see it as his payback time.

Drop your rods and take your punishment like a man.

Fine line between payback and being a douche. But each to his own I guess.

And by troll I mean Churchill

Churchill maybe trolling, but he ain't no troll. He has been flamed many a time in the cricket sub forums. While I don't know the history of this particular episode, our failure to beat a 14 man Irish team remains a massive blight on our record.

Perhaps it was arrogance that was the reason for this... or was it the white jersey? Why did we play in white and not green & gold?

Lambie out for next week with concussion. Possibly the following week as well.

Flyhalf stocks are running low. I can't see April able to make the step up yet. I reckon we should get Goosen over here asap.
