Jessie Kriel shooting up out of the line again

Kriel still doing the racing out and missing tackles, good job twot

 

[netstrider]

Well, waited the whole day for this. Disappointed really because this was supposed to be the game of round 3.

Clear Red for me. Not smart.

Even before the red and continuing afterwards SA have again made too many mistakes.

How are you able to watch rugby when you spend all your time just throwing your toys out the cot?

Cavedog is one of those guys that takes his ball home with him when he's losing at game of touchies at the park

That looks like bait. Lucky for me I'm not a fish...

 

[Agent_Smith]

Damn Cheslyn. Ate your jungle oats this morning. That was a most impressive kick.

Is Kolosi playing? Haven't heard his name once yet.

Say that again

He has chased the ball, on occassion.

See, there he is.

Has the rule not changed that for a Red you can bring someone back after 20 minutes? Is that only for 2 yellows or maybe its just the provincial games?

 

[SAguy]

I hate that the on pitch audio is rubbish, can't hear the ref

It was trialled in Super Rugby and then carried through into the Rugby Championship. It is still up in the air whether it will be trialled globally, but as I understand it needs review.

It was only a southern hemisphere experiment. Doesn't apply for these internationals.

He is one of those type of guy's who is more worried about England losing then his own team winning.

6 point deficit at the break with a player down. Would have taken that at the start of the match.

 

[backstreetboy]

Lol that MTN fibre buffering ad buffering on this free stream.

I think that's because the Boks are trying to play rugby now, no kicking up n unders and hoping for the luck of the bounce.

If The Boks play the second half with ball in hand, the lads will win this game.

Absolutely, I'm quite surprised at the come back being a man down. We've cleaned up our game today, and looking a lot more expansive, taking the French on in the maul and out wide. Glad Marx is back on, definitely a momentum swing since his arrival.

If we can keep going for another 40 minutes we still may be in for a chance, but it's tough on the forwards 1 man down. It would be remarkable if we can keep the momentum going to the 80th, but miracles can happen!

P.S Cheslyn you beaut, 54m out, no mean feat, even Steyn would be proud of you.. and for someone whose not a even a traditional place kicker!
