I’m worried about Matt Proudfoot in the England camp. He knows a hell of a lot about our pack and I think he’ll know a couple of ways to hurt us.

That's Keo and his likes.

Die game is oor, ons het verloor.

We lost the first one against the better team on the day, there are many reasons.

The biggest one is we lost the aerial battle. Itoje was immense,

The Lions look hungry and wanted it more.

Let's give them credit and hope our lot learn some valuable lessons.

A week is a long time in rugby.

We are fortunate to see the Lions play against our beloved Springbokke.

Bring on the 2nd test.

Didn’t realise you meant just the bored. Yes, with the exception of handyman, chilli and a couple of others, most of the SA bordies we’re good value, I’d say the same about the BiL supporters. There was quite a bit of emotion on both sides but few went full retard

Boet all our teams got hidings in the first few rounds in the URC. Not a single Saffer was retarded about it. We are a humble lot here bar Sards. He is a Keo founder member.

Taking my boy to his first match at Murrayfield today. Leaving shortly to get there for the teams arriving and watch some of the entertainment. Got a hat and scarf to give him just before we leave.

Can’t wait to see his reaction to the anthems

I’m far more excited about it than him.

I've rewatched all of the scrums from the Scotland clash to see how the Springboks go. The starting front 3 Boks are real short guys. Ox is 1.73m or 5'8". They're all pretty much the same height. They're about 10-15cm shorter than the Scottish front row. Zander Fagerson and Schoeman are not weak props and got completely smashed here. The Nche-Mbonambi combo working on the Scottish tighthead while still scrumming legally is awesome to watch. Fagersons feet are left dangling.

Massive early shove from SA

That cursed it....

Scotland should be kicking themselves for Japan being so in this game. The latter are not good right now.

Nor are the former

Now the main event for the South Africans

Think Sco got lucky with that pen to the corner which smelled dead: they scored a try from subsequent rolling maul.

Anyone getting shit hiccupy sound on the ENG/SQ stream?

Anyone got some lube handy? The England front row are going to need it.

Yeah, not one to remember for them.

Audio is very weird. Anthems sound shit.

Hope it's not that bad on the field. It;s like the singers are not wearing earpieces and the delayed audio from the stadium is tripping them up.

Crowd, choir and players all singing at different tempos doesn’t help.

Agreed, that was horrible.

Cannot hear Pearce and Shimange.

Ah vok, it's Brace

Whilst I like Amazon getting the rugby rather than Sky, they need to sort the upside-down team list graphics for the backs

Spidercam is a curse on the game. NEVER USE IT FOR LIVE COVERAGE, YOU ARSEHOLES!

Youngs is on form. Two kicks, first straight up & down; & the 2nd far to long

A bit early to start laughing, Sinkler.

Yes quite good for him.

First 5 minutes have been all England.

Not out on the full and the grubber was decent from him

Youngs is so slow that you notice it even as opposition fan

Try England.

Boks haven't been in the match at all so far. Linespeed on defense slow.
England playing deep and wide and finding space on the outside.
