Boks v Pumas 2
-
This game has gone on for an eternity.
-
SA commentators moaning about every decision that goes against them.
-
Every hooker that has played tonight has not thrown straight.

That’s just being mean, and I love it.

The game coverage went for 2+ hours. It’s the NFL.
-
YC on Eben was an absolute fucking joke
The Argie went tumbling over a different player ffs
Should have been a penalty against Argentina for shepherding and obstruction
-
Foster and co win another RC. Seriously weird season results-wise for all teams
-
@ACT-Crusader Haha fuck them I say!
-
39 penalties 6 YCards….ummm….disjointed and very odd test. Arg came back nicely in 2nd 40 and I never honestly thought we would make up the points difference required before or during test so congrats to ABs for Bledisloe and Championship silverware 🍻👌🏻Some interesting end of year matchups loading…

Allblacks have a disaster of a season and still win the RC , and with having to play the boks in SA twice .
Not patting us on the back ,but it’s a bit funny when we have been a bit of a rabble by our standards.
-
Not to mention lose a home game in the RC and still winning it.
I suppose it highlights the inconsistencies of the other sides that play in the RC.
Normally AB consistency of performance and ability to win away means they more often than not win the RC.
The fact no side could take advantage of a poor NZ side this year is pretty shit and probably shows the worth of the tournament to the teams in a way.
Even the ABs seem more fixed on winning the Bledisloe and beating Sa in SA than publically stating we want to win the RC.
Considering it’s one of the premier international rugby competitions, it’s a bit strange really. 🤷

Maybe it’s a pointer that other teams might be a bit inconsistent and dare I say it, shit, as well ?
Everyone thought the Boks would destroy NZ in the second game. Never happened.
Argies were NEVER going to back up that historic performance in NZ twice in a row.
Australia are living up to their ranking in World Rugby at the moment.

How does Le Roux keep getting Test caps? He's such a donkey.

Very disappointing match and an awful spectacle for this level. Horrible approach by the Springboks scrumming mauling niggling for cards and penalties all day. Glad the push by Etzebeth got pulled up. Lots of harsh calls v Pumas before that and the shove from Eben was far more than intended but cynical nonetheless.
Trying to score 40 points with Frans Steyn and Hendrikse slowing things and bumbling is a big ask.
Argentina tried to play rugby. De Allende was inspirational for South Africa but seemed a lone spirit. Fair result. -

Consistently gets talked up by commentators as well, as if he were any good, just because he tries more than just kicking the ball away. Sad thing is, he can't execute anything well enough.

Very disappointed performance from the Boks. Expect that they would at least try to play more expensive. They miss Damian Willemse big time who can at least spark something.
Our season changed so no URC for Willemse, Amm, Mapimpi, Hendricks, Malherbe, Kitshoff, Etsebeth and Kolisi until January.
Next two tests will be vital against Ireland and France.
Our players is now use to NH conditions.

Some SA supporters at my work were so convinced of the great Bok depth and superiority, yet the ABs turn around and win the rugby championship.
Have the Boks been that great since the World Cup final?? -

Have the Boks been that great since the World Cup final??They have a big win and everyone talks them up as a team to be feared.
They then follow it up with a shite performance and lose.
In that regard they’re no better than the ABs.
What did they do to actually win the WC ? Lost a pool game to NZ, beat a Japanese team who simply couldn’t maintain the momentum they’d achieved, scraped past Wales but then to be fair beat England well and truly after they had played their “final” against NZ the week before.
Hardly the stuff of a consistently brilliant team.
