I think the Boks under instruction from Rassie did enough to get by Japan and just enough to scrape by Wales. Reason being he didn't want to show his hand. Maybe I'm grasping at straws, who know or cares? In the end, the Boks won the final and that's probably all that matters.

SA SR teams, apart from maybe the Sharks are gonna suck next year. I have no hope for the Bulls, player drain and Pote as coach.

Spies was never quite the same after his pre-RWC 2007 health issues, but when on form that guy was amazing. Strength and speed with no equal.

Hope that before Duane retires the Boks can find an adequate replacement for him. Though we're blessed with many loose forwards, we don't have many of the abrasive go forwards types like Duane.

That is ridiculously long advantage.

It's a pity Rassie didn't include Marco van Staden in the WC group, would've been a monumental battle between these 2 players.

There was no need to kick for poles though. The match was done, why risk hitting the pole and Wales possibly scoring?

Yeah, I was also hoping for Mostert to be dropped and have Willemse on the bench, at least he is able to cover multiple positions. Mostert really hasn't done anything this WC and was especially poor against the AB's, missing many tackles. With the team basically being the same I doubt there...

Dubbel pos.

Hulle het die Ozzies gewen, wat al jare kak is. Het die Bokke nie die Ozzies ver gewen die jaar met 'n B span nie? 9/10 keer sal die AB's meeste spanne wen, na een wedstryd is die Engelse eweskielik nat kak.

Unfortunately, Pollard has been thrust into a game plan not allowing or affording him to play his natural game. One on one I would put money on it that he is a better player than Ford. DDE and Farrell are on par when Damian is on form he edges Farrell. No argument with manu, I don't rate Am at...

Never forget

Talking about refs and especially the way some TMO's intervene I've found the opposite to be the case with touch judges. That's exactly what they are these days, there was clear offside play over the weekend, the one instance where Biggar kicked the ball and all the Welsh players were in front...

Kolbe has been declared fit for final. https://www.sarugbymag.co.za/kolbe-fit-final/

Ag fok.

Dan Kriel WP, Roelof Smit and Andre Warner Bulls and some lesser know players all joined the Lions. Nice going Pote, your insistence on picking Ivan van Zyl has lead to the Bulls losing their best 9.

I really hope that Kolbe is fit, Nkosi made exactly the same mistake on defence as he has done previously and the English will make it count. Would be great if Willie is dropped but I doubt it'll happen. The Boks will get killed at the rucks if they don't counter Underhill. Garces was a bit...

There seems to be issues on the right wing for SA when Wales attack on that side. Boks look decent with ball in hand, they're kicking away too much of it though and look disinterested in scoring tries.

I was thinking the exact same thing if Nkosi has a blinder and Willie is poor it might force Rassie to pick Kolbe at 15 if he is fit and the Boks do progress to the final.
