2010 TriNations: Bok Schedule

[BillyWebb]

So, the Boks start off with 3 away games next year: 2 in NZ and one in Brisbane - where the Boks have a rubbish record.
It could well be that we are 0 for 3 before our home matches...

The Bok fixtures for 2010 (so far):

Saturday, June 12, South Africa v France, TBC
Saturday, June 19, South Africa v Italy, TBC
Saturday, June 26, South Africa v Italy, TBC
Saturday, July 10, New Zealand v South Africa, Auckland
Saturday, July 17, New Zealand v South Africa, Wellington
Saturday, July 24, Australia v South Africa, Brisbane
Saturday, August 21, South Africa v New Zealand, Johannesburg
Saturday, August 28, South Africa v Australia, Pretoria
Saturday, September 4, South Africa v Australia, Bloemfontein

All 3 home Trination games are scheduled to be played at altitude.
I guess the France and Italy tests will get allocated to Cape Town, Durban and 1 other...

Cape Town keeps drawing the short straw it seems. It had better be France for Newlands.

Oh well we start the hard way Billy. One win in the start and its home james. Glad they play the TriNations test at altitude. I never ever want to witness a 19-0 drubbing live on Newlands.

 

[BillyWebb]

Given the RWC is in NZ in 2011, I do like the idea of the Boks getting as much game time in NZ as possible.
Learning to win there (twice now in the last 2 years) could stand us in good stead one year on from next.

 

[PaarlBok]

Sure , three in a row will be nice. Hell but that is still far away, enjoy only the moment, worried about the Hane en Iere. :nta:

 

[Gagger]

What, we're not giving you guys a result at Perthfontein next year? Wtf? :nta:

At least we'll have one challenge for next year. There isnt many left.

Well you can't always have the dream draw of 2009...

Yep and when the S15 is on the road we'll have it yearly. Thats the offer Marinos have accepted the S15 deal. Myself think he offer our rugby for getting that draw. Mind you everything will change when the Argies join in.

 

[PaarlBok]

Mind you, a coin have both sides, we can settle the TriNations earlier in 2010 compare to 2009. Get a few wins on the road and its all done and dusted. Think we have buried the road blues.

Bloody unsporting of you chaps not to schedule a "home" game for us. :lmao:

Yeah, well, it aint like you guys need a leg up or anything. Nice to see you pay us back for this year's generosity with a couple of weeks on the veldt. :angryfire:

Hey, we gave you the beauty of Cape Town this year - at sea level. So it seems pretty fair to me.

At least we use ours. :fishing

Two games against Italy - good. Sooner or later, we'll get proper tours back, as we're seeing more of these. Plus, it's good for Italy, who will at least slog away good and hard up front.

Anyone for a trip to Dalla Cia, then Fairview (the Agostinelli) and back to that bloody brilliant Umbrian place in the Tygerberg mall, then...? :yay

 

[PaarlBok]

Myself planned with the son in the UK to have a Twickenham trip when he is there this year. Now this happen, no test on HQ this year, always been one rugby place I just have to visit in my lifetime.

Want me to go looking for tickets for Croke Park this year, or Landsdowne Road next year?

Would love to but was planning a bit of home bonding with relaxation. :'( :'(
