They did not. Them's the rules in test rugby. If both TH props go its uncontested. Meyer after the game: ‘It doesn’t matter whether Trevor can or has played tighthead before [for the Bulls at Super Rugby level],’ said Meyer. ‘Once the two [designated] tightheads in a match 23 are off, the ref...

How the fuck did that go to uncontested? 6 front rowers on the park. WTF? We suck anyway. Can't close a fridge door.

There really is now way the All blacks should lose this and I am not just trying to claim some underdog status. We have: Makeshift back row Rookie five calling lineouts A nine who launches a marketing campaign very time he ys at the back of the ruck (which is not all too often) A ten who is...

Wow. Brussow. Never though I'd see that name in a bok setup again. Problem is that it's a very unbalanced back row. Two short opensides and Schalk is a hybrid as it is. They will keep Richie busy all night, that's for sure. It is potentially the weakest Bok line out in a very long...

Count me right out of your "WE" thank you very much. "It instills discipline." Are you serious? Are you actually serious? .What century are you living in? This guy is glorifying corporal punishment on children on an open forum. Like it's some lost privilege. You can NOT be serious. I...

It was a training drill.

Redshappy the breakdown: It is a concern for the Wallabies. Rarely does a team dominate the breakdown the way the Boks did and then lose. Lucky for you guys the sting went out of our breakdown work when Bismarck and Jannie were taken off and suddenly there was parity. That was an unbalanced...

As soon as the replacements started it went to hell. Mohoje was the worst. Just not up to it. Missed the tackle on Hooper when he scored and gave away two kickable penalties. Not up to the job but the quotas must be met. He was terrible. Strauss at hooker did not make his usual impact. He...

The bigger the slower and the easier to catch. :)

Me, I know how to deal with chickens. I just roast the little fuckers and eat them. Nom nom nom.

10/12. Always with Cooper. I see what you're doing. You say that's why you need Pocock? :)

This is the right thing. Hooper is incumbent. Pocock gets time on the park. He needs to stake a claim to be rthe starter. A World Cup game against South Africa 4 years ago has diddly squat to do with the here and now. One would expect it for every other position on the field.

Hooper doesn't go after the ball? Mate, WOT have you been watching? That's what makes him so good. He can play that loose linking game but win a turnover under the posts to save the team. Too many people here are looking at the world through Pocock tinted glasses. Play both Cheika you big...

N Now all you need is Bieber and it's a paaartyyyyy. (Just had to, sorry).

Horwill. Weirdness. Surely now is the time to give Arnold a shot. Horwill has been awful for 2 years. Comical at times.

There is general consensus that he is not a test level scum half. A good stop gap, and possible even offers a luxury of not having another 9 on the bench, but his kicking game is the real issue that lets him down. It's been four years to try and improve his game at 9 and it has not worked. I...

Bok loosies worry me. Schalk has never started a pro game at 8 (although if anyone has enough rugby brain to make the switch it will be him). F Louw looked so slow lat week. Battled all season for Bath with injury and poor form. Coetzee did it all last week against the World XV. Good to see De...

Someone remind all those sugar cane rats in QL that the Wallabies actually don't lose to the Boks in Brisbane or are they all too stupid to remember? Brisbane is almost a foregone conclusion against us and no, I am not taking the piss.

I think meyer hopes that JdV will find fitness and form. Then he will play the together in the RWC. In the meantime he is hoping that Jesse Kriel gives him a viable alternative, which everyone in SA hopes is the case. De Allende and Kriel is the most exciting midfield I can ever imagine out of...
