Holy shit. I can't remember the last time I watched South African punditry, but according to Mallet and Botha Argentina being cycnical is the only reason the Bok's aren't playing pretty rugby...
Oh, it's very very bad. We don't have
any good pundits. Jean de Villiers and Schalk Burger are decent, but more because of their chemistry than their actual punditry.
It makes me feel better about the shower we have have up here!

Said so last week and am saying it again. Wiese is not a Bok quality 8.
Reinach is terrible he spends so much time talking to his backs that he doesn't even know what is going on at the base.
Agree on both statements. We have so many loosies at our disposal. Wiese has not lived up to the hype.
Had enough chances now. Time to move on.
Reinach is capable of so much better. Hope he got instructions at halftime to just let things flow.

20 penalties is terrible
Bok backs are crap today. Especially Reinach.

JFC Reinach! I'm trying to defend you here, and you do that to me. Twice in the same match now.
When you plan to boxkick, make sure to have a pillar. It's basics man.

Boks are just too casual. Show so fucking intent when you get good attacking ball.
There was no reason for Pollard to kick that from the scrum. It was good attacking ball with lots of space for the Bok backs.

Yesss. Slay king! Little scuttle from Cobus.
Cheslin Kolbe was front of that line out. Never say we don't play enterprising rugby.

Hope the Boks open up a little bit now. Decent lead, hope they play some more adventurous rugby.
Argies have been majestic in the air. Credit to them.

A thing of beauty. So great having Mostert as a lineout target flanker. Means the locks can put put their heads down.

Lood de Jager down again. Shoulder earlier, cramps now.
Mostert might have to go to lock. Kwagga the only forward left on the bench.

Wish Willie would have the balls just to go for the gap and offload. His loopy, floating pass is great, but he has to mix it up a little.

Think it is time to release the mad bag of cats that is Hendrikse.
Could liven this match up a little.
Kwagga on for Lood. Mostert to lock.

While I understand and completely support the Bok tactic of "Box kick in your own half", I really don't see the use of persisting with it when:
a) the opposition has obviously trained all week to counter it and are doing so very well, and
b) running at them has actually been very effective

Plan B has never been in our locker. Ever.
