Springboks vs Argentina.

LancelotSA said:
OK I will humour you. Do you not think that the start they chose perhaps tired the Argentinians, who are having to play at altitude, and resulted in them tiring and the gaps opening? Do you mind for a minute considering the Pumas strength? Is it not the forwards? So you wanted us to come out and play their game. Take them on at their strength? Bottom line is the way we played for the first 20 set the foundation, whether you like it or not, for the current score line.

sheez but you've got a cr@ppy attitude.

Perhaps thats the start they chose for all the reasons you mention.

But I stand by my assessment and still think they should have started of a bit more suspect and should of held on to the ball more. Instead they gave a way 4 penalties.

And you felt important enough for them to have applied to you specifically? Even though I had in no way referred to your post? Guilty conscience? On numerous occasions I referred to the word "inept". Did you say this?

:rolleyes: you kept on quoting me and used a lot exclamation marks and shouted at one stage. I just tried to follow you... sorry.
 
Well I am happy to say my prediction of 40-14 was way out. I think I allowed all the pessimism present on this forum to cloud my judgement! ;)

Nice one Bokke!
 
That was a very peculiar game of rugby. Hardly believable that Argentina were 9-0 up after 31 minutes. Seems there is a massive defensive weakness in the centers for Argentina which was so blatantly exposed from the 31st minutes and onwards... Good win for the Boks!!!! But I'm a bit disappointed in Argentina to be honest...
 
Not even worthy to have played that game IMO ....... wasn't even decent practice ffs. And to top it, we have injuries :mad:
 
Don't get too happy folks. we were only playing argentina. weakened as well.

Why exactly was it not decent practice? Any game time against real people is better than running through beacons and tackling tackle bags. We also got a chance to give Fourie Du Preez a run after injury. And of course some starts for Beast and Jongi.

What injuries? Was it not only Jacques?

Here we go again!

We only beat Wales don't get happy.
We only beat New Zealand at home, don't get happy.
We only beat Argentina, the 4th ranked team in the world, by 50+ points, don't get happy!

Do you ever get happy?!?!?

Wait, I reckon some injury stats are still coming ... Jacobs didn't look happy at one stage, Botha left early, sure there was someone else :confused:

I think its mostly Fourie, a fractured cheekbone.

He must have the worse luck. First game back, one run with the ball, and off he goes again.
