Enjoy the game folks.

Unreal how Razor’s ABs look nothing like his awesome Saders. This lot can’t catch a cold or carry out a move to save their lives.

Well, never would've predicted that scoreline at the start, after 15 mins or at half time...

Butchered opportunities left and right.

We keep the Bledisloe for another year but damn, we need to start scoring late in the game. And someone needs to teach DMac to pass

That is not what we are saying at the end of the first half.

True. Maybe he needs a different team talk in the sheds at the turn?

Yes to both!

The lack of second half points is beyond a joke. And DMac butchered so many chances when his passing turned to shit. Not good at all.

On the bright side, we managed to retain the Bledisloe. Very relieved the fucking Cake Tin Curse won't get to have the last word next week.

The first priority today was to win and retain the Cup. Job done. The first half play was as good as we have seen from the ABs this year: great ball retention, quick recycling at rucks, set play strong, strong and incisive running in the backs, taking our chances well.

The second half was bombed chance after bombed chance.

I am not enjoying all this negativity from AB supporters. Giving the SH a bad reputation.

Game management has never been one of DMac's strengths, so how about starting Plummer next week?

With Jordan at 15 and the bench spot an open cage fight between DMac and BB?

Next week's team should be interesting, but I doubt he'll bench DMac. Even if Perofeta's fit again, he and Plummer are woefully short of game time.

Congrats to Plummer for earning his 1st test cap, and to James Slipper for his 130th.

Add 10 for Slipper bro...

Apparently Love is injured, I didn't know that.

I'm not sure how long they stick to their guns over this but something's not clicking. We don't know what is actually said and expected, of course...but I think it's fair to say we fans deserve to see some concrete progress. The progress that is there isn't readily apparent unless you're watching closely and the mouth breathers have never been known for that.

Thinking of running an office pool on this one, which one gets the yellow first and how many minutes into the game :thumbup: TJ needs to shut the fuck up and let White off side the Ref.
White wins the "STFU" from the ref award.

Now for a long wait. The Sharks supporters will be drunk and pass out from Durban poison when the real rugby starts.

Argentina has almost no chance against this unstoppable, bestest ever Boks side.

Anything less than a 30-point thumping by SA will be a massive moral victory to the Pumas.

Vamos, undercats!

No amount of cards will stop a tackle like that when the player is changing direction. Not even a penalty in my opinion.
