the sheer physical challenge of the Bok pack.[/b]

You obviously haven't seen Japan scrum in full flight

 

[Charles]

Soft, soft try by the Ozzies. Shocking defense by Pietersen. 7-0

- if Aus hold up in the scrum, they can do a Lions[/b]

What lose

He he.

I mean score at will (or at least cross the line) when the scrum is stable.

All well and good saying that, but the Wallabies don't know how to scrum. It's not "leagish".

Anyway, 9-7 to the Boks now, I sense a pummelling coming.

 

[Bullitt]

As he says that, an Aussie DG comes for Barnes. 9-10 now.

 

[Charles]

The problem for Oz is Burgess. He is clearly the weak link in this team.

 

[Sir Speedy]

Poor Du Preez... He sure takes a bashing when in the air.

 

[Charles]

Massive brain fart by Giteau...10 mins in the bin.


DUbious call by the ref...I'ce seen it not whistled. Another Yellow for Oz. THings are looking bad for Oz...

 

[Sir Speedy]

Okay, with Brown off aswell South Africa really should tear them to shreds...

 

[gingergenius]

What the f*** are Aus playing at? Atm their pack is non existent, and Giteau and Brown... more stupid than anything Haskell's ever done and that's saying something

 

[Bullitt]

Is it me or does Habana look nowhere near as fast or agile as he did in his pomp a couple of years ago?

Normal, innit?

 

[Charles]

It's a bit frustrating because honestly SA is not "that" good apart their massive pack. Their backs are really poor considering the amount of ball they've had. They're not that flash ondefense as well (cf the soft try in the first minutes). If the AB pack can get their act together back in NZ we're in for an interesting game. Also the November test against France is gonna be massive.

 

[Charles]

This Ozzie side is painful to watch. Reminds me of France on a bad day...

 

[gingergenius]

Giteau, even on a very bad day for him, still shows why he's the world's best fully fit 10.

also as wingers go Pietersen is better than Habana atm, but there aren't any world class wingers playing for anyone. Waiting for Nalaga to make that Fiji debut

 

[Charles]

Nalaga is not even close to have the skills to play on the wing for Fiji. He never performs against the big teams and he managed to get sent off on his first international game (PI against France) with a horrible coathanger on JB Elissalde.

Edit; sorry for sounding like a righteous prick.

I doubt it.

Based on today, they should save the time of millions by cancelling the fixture.

Care to elaborate ?

 

[cyRil]

Giteau is not the best fly half in the world.
He is a c*** though.

 

[gingergenius]

Australia will be a decent test for all the NH teams. They're going on a Grand Slam tour and it is possible that they could lose 3 of the 4 games against the home nations.

Charles.. Aus aren't playing France this autumn. France get the Springboks and the All Blacks though... good test.

Fortunately, we're not playing South Africa this autumn. Because I can see no way in hell of beating them. We're more than capable of beating Australia. And if we continue to build on our good finish to the 6N, and the ABs continue to play very badly, then there's a slim chance we could beat them too. Maybe.
