Sandman only the two tackles weren't in the tribute video

But they did include both Namibia and both Rebels tries

Cool vid, edited mine.

Haha if you really wanna watch a tribute video I suggest watching the Larkham tribute.

Wonder if this klippie is ever gonna get the drift to drop Hougaard from the wing

 

[ssvoogel]

He's from the Netherlands.

Yes, but Holland is filled with brain-dead football junkies. Visser scored 2 tries against the All Blacks, and all he got was a 40 sec. interview which was only posted on the website of the national broadcasting station, not even on TV. That's how low rugby is in the pecking order over here in Holland.

It will be fun for me to watch on Saturday though. Tim Visser, fellow Dutchman, taking on the Springboks. A special match

Where do you get that from? He's coming home to rest. He has heart palpitations:

Difference in terminology maybe?

As expected there were only two changes - Juan de Jongh at centre in place of Jaco Taute, and Gurthro Steenkamp at loosehead. Steenkamp replaces Tendai Mtawarira, who is back in South Africa, where he will have minor heart surgery.

[Mephisto_Helix]

Well, not the best opposition but I'm still looking forward to the game. Hopefully we've risen a bit above the meh form of last week.

 

[MickeyD]

Strange decision by ref to penalise us at the rolling maul ???

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Always happens with them Northern noobs, always

 

[undesign]

SCORE!!!

 

[MickeyD]

I did not see much difference with that rolling maul...

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Hougaard is such a waste ........ get rid of the useless knob and give someone else a gap.

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Pienaar - slow as fsck
CJ - just does not tackle, lazy bastid

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Yoh, Lambie has a massive tackle count compared to Jantjies and that other moegoe, Steyn.

 

[sand_man]

Crap game. Both sides technically inept. Unconvincing and uninspiring from the Boks.

Agreed. Not a good advert for the beautiful game.

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

CJ's 2nd penalty, again ...... can be guaranteed that that fsck gives away at least 2-3 penalties per game

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

And Flip-the-walking-Yellow .......

 

[undesign]

Crap game. Both sides technically inept. Unconvincing and uninspiring from the Boks.

+1

And Flip-the-walking-Yellow .......

+100

 

[Vrotappel]

Our scrum down-graded to junk.
