Hoekom?

We might have lost those games.

/just joking, since the last B&I Lions tour to SA and Rassie's No1 hit 'leaked' Video, geen kans ons verloor teen die Irish en die paddas.
Would have been a great test of our strenght. Never know which Frenchie side you will play. A good or a bad onw.
 
@Speedster ek is nee seker if you are watching NZ vs Italy.

I would appreciate you professional opinion on NZ's number 5 shoulder on the head of an Italian player contact and only being a penalty....

last years world cup that was a yellow then upgraded to a red, then 2x multiplier for a 4week ban.
I didn't watch it. Although looking at your postings last night I think you may have had a few drinks too many and will receive some clarity on the matter once the morning fog clears.
 
World 15's dream team of the year

15. Will Jordan (New Zealand); 14. Cheslin Kolbe (South Africa), 13. Jesse Kriel (South Africa), 12. Damian de Allende (South Africa), 11. James Lowe (Ireland); 10. Damian McKenzie (New Zealand), 9. Jamison Gibson-Park (Ireland); 1. Ox Nche (South Africa), 2. Malcolm Marx (South Africa), 3. Tyrel Lomax (New Zealand), 4. Eben Etzebeth (South Africa), 5. Tadhg Beirne (Ireland), 6. Pablo Matera (Argentina), 7. Pieter-Steph du Toit (South Africa), 8. Caelan Doris (Ireland).

 
Happy for the Bok win but we should at least have won by 50+. So many try scoring opportunities squandered. Game was very scrappy and error-ridden, especially in the 2nd half. Kudos for Wales hanging in there and not letting the Boks run away with the score.
Congrats to PSDT for getting World Rugby player of the year. Rassie snubbed again!! WTAF!
 
Seven year old pic used for psdt. Even when they begrudgingly award us they still try to get a dig in...

Eish 12 losses in a row that's tough but the Welsh just don't seem to have quality or depth.

Siya mentioned it in a post-game interview with the Welsh pundits, one Bok back had more caps than their entire backline.

The WRU itself is in disarray, but their squad is entirely new. Fresh blood that is going to take a couple of years to develop and grow. And to their credit they gave it a go despite the inexperience and the chaos within the union.

“They are such a gutsy team,” said [Rassie] Erasmus. “Today, they could have lied down when we were however many points up, and we were going hard at them. We were really trying to smash them. I don’t know what behind the scenes they must get right, but I know Warren is a great coach and the Welsh players have talent. Why didn’t they just leave us and [let it go] to 50, 60 [points]? The last try [by Botham], they always hang in there. For a team who has an average of 14 caps against a team with 45 caps average, there are some solid guys in there.”

I think our bench had more caps than their entire matchday 23 combined.
