Rugby Championship Match Thread - Sat 2nd - SA v NZ / Arg v Aus

[Sards]

Willie Le Roux. Everything he touches turns to shit. He’s Afghanistan.

Everything..

[Biffer]

Great try.

I wouldn’t have given the water boy a second chance, he’d be in the stands now.

[ScarfaceClaw]

Fuck off with the leap though Savea. Tosser

Yep. Put the ball down and get on with the game.

[ASMO]

Willi 3 fuckups for 3 now

[Blake]

Willie Le Roux. Everything he touches turns to shit. He’s Afghanistan.

Weak link out there. Rest of the team has been pretty good, but every time Willie has been involved in any capacity, everything fell apart.

Such a pity we rely on him so much. When he is as off as he is today it is just devastating.

[boere wors]

Boks are deep asleep. FFS

[ScarfaceClaw]

Great tackle there. Nice run by Joggie as well.

Coaching stuff is so reluctant to make early changes. Take him off, bring on frans

[Sards]

Nothing Fassi ever could do wrong will ever come close to Willie's shitness

[ScarfaceClaw]

And here we go. An injury. Gasp.

[Ymx]

Jordy with pace?!!!

[Ymx]

Did he get it?

[Sards]

Good....make it a cricket score

[ScarfaceClaw]

Given as well. Nice work by Webber.

[fishfoodie]

Great try.

I wouldn’t have given the water boy a second chance, he’d be in the stands now.

+1 unacceptable, & there needs to be a followup afterward

[Sandstorm]

The TMO is VERY QUICK to call Moodys touch backwards…..

[ScarfaceClaw]

Jordy with pace?!!!

We’re officially in an alternative universe. He’s played really well so far has young Joggie.

[sockwithaticket]

Great try.

What is it with Bok support staff? Their female medic has been giving it all that on camera a few times recently too. Not the extent of chasing officials, though.

[Ymx]

Good latter half from the ABs

[ScarfaceClaw]

The TMO is VERY QUICK to call Moodys touch backwards…..

Yeah. That went forward for me.

[Ymx]

Jordy with pace?!!!

We’re officially in an alternative universe. He’s played really well so far has young Joggie.

And he’s now our #1 fullback.

I never thought I’d EVER say that.

[Ymx]

The TMO is VERY QUICK to call Moodys touch backwards…..

Yeah. That went forward for me.

There was certainly a lot going on in the line out. Hard to tell what exactly happened given how quick the review was.

[ScarfaceClaw]

And he’s now our #1 fullback.

I never thought I’d EVER say that.

It’s terrifying but I agree. Dick Mo at first five and Joggie at fullback. Beauden on the bench.

[ASMO]

Great try.

She can do whatever she likes, she is a stunner

[Ymx]

What ???

Faf never released.

[ScarfaceClaw]

Whole front row replaced at 38 minutes. Bold move.

[Sards]

They take off the front row that can maul........

[ScarfaceClaw]

Boks look so much better when they move the ball through hands at pace.

[Sandstorm]

Whole front row replaced at 38 minutes. Bold move.

Stupid really. Halftime in 2

Willie should have been hooked after 20

[Blake]

Tempo of the match is too high; Frans has lost too much pace to cover the backfield at 15 or inject himself into the line on attack. We need Willemse or Fassi on the bench.

[Sandstorm]

Piss off. Everyone loves their soccer more.

[Kiwias]

What ???

Faf never released.

Seemed a bit dodgy to me too

[fishfoodie]

Whole front row replaced at 38 minutes. Bold move.

Stupid really. Halftime in 2

Willie should have been hooked, & fired into the Sun after 20

FTFY

[Gumboot]

Boks look so much better when they move the ball through hands at pace.

Absolutely. We're doing our best to run them off their feet, so the more they do too, the better.

[sorCrer]

That quick lineout taken by the All Blacks, wasn't the ball touched by some on the side?

[OomStruisbaai]

They take off the front row that can maul........

Obviously Bongi throwing water lemons at late.

[Blake]

Great try.

Agree 100%.

I don’t mind support staff getting involved and communicating with players. As long as that loophole exists, we should use it.

But they should in no way shape or form communicate or interfere with opposition players or officials. Waterboy should have been red carded.

I think the dispute was related to Willie and the WB believing his kick from the turnover was 50/22 eligible, but the officials said it was carried back.

Yeah you are actually right with that. But no have, no can do.

[Niegs]

What ???

Faf never released.

It’s a joke how much ‘over the ball’ is prioritised when tackled has zero time to place. So many are hands in the ruck, too. Would rather see ‘release now’ to the defender (if the ball is released by tackled) and the ball isn’t off the deck.

Let us actually see some rugby as opposed to continuous jackals and kicks to post/corner.

[sorCrer]

Replay of that Savea try shows some blocking by the ABs
