Wish AWJ would concentrate on his play rather than winging on every single f’in decision.

Edit: actually, he’ll make a good poster when he retires.

He's been horrific. Need to get him off ASAP and get Marx on.

That being said, I didn't see a knock on there.

Not sure the other bok was close to supporting bodyweight there. Still, got isolated, get turned over. Bad from the BILs.

Lions forwards looked rather clueless in that passage of play after the scrum.

Yeah, not a great series of pick and goes, but the bok hooker was horizontal there. Kolisi not much better.

Never mind

Let Rassie know for his next whingefest.
You need the Refs dodgy decisions it seems.
Was it lost forwards? It was ripped, but I don't think it clearly went forwards?

However, from the commentary team, clearly it's a conspiracy against the boks.
Bullshit.

That's a classic shit Wiese clear out. If he avoids doing anything illegal it's more by luck than judgement.

It was fine in the end but he’s putting himself in a dodgy spot if the ref is wanting to review it.

Any time I have seen him in the Prem he's looked absolute journeyman squad filler. Quite what he's doing in a Test shirt is a head scratcher.

He's a moron for penalties and cards, but his carrying has been devastating in the prem.

We are trying (unsuccessfully) to replace a once in a generation player like Vermeulen with 3 players taking turns:
Kwagga for defensive reads
Van Staden for ground game
Wiese for (alleged) ball carrying ability

But, yeah, the experiment has been a massive failure. Only Van Staden has look decent at this level.
Back to the drawing board to find Thor v2.0 - luckily v1.0 will be back soon.

Boks really struggle with French refs. Not having a go at this one, think he's been fine. The Boks just struggle to adapt to French refs. It's been an issue for ages.

The answer to that is, rather obviously, don’t close the gap and throw it in straight.

We are killing ourselves. Both infringements are easy to avoid if you know it is getting policed...yet we persist.
