    @nta maybe the Bok loose head should scrum better and then the ref will see the supposed illegal scrumming. I mean how the hell do you want a penalty for being ministered in the scrum. I mean it's been a open secret that being dominant gives you the advantage. Gees but they're the most powerful scrumming side in the world πŸ˜‚

    @rebound Was more the second row - and flankers - than the prop. Feel a bit sorry for N'Che tho he could stand to lose a few kegs TBH.

    I just noticed that Cooper did away with his silly kicking stance he used to do in years prior, where his arms were positioned weirdly. Nice.

    I don’t recall seeing him do that whilst he was playing in Japan, so it may have been ditched a while back.

    hang on did an ex-prop suggest a current prop "lose a few kegs"?

    I watched him when he came on and just thought there is a line between "heavy" and "cuddly" and he was threatening it. Watching him around the park, there's no doubt he has power but at the same time when he's following play he leaves some big gaps.

    When you compare him to Koch, it is surprising that Ox is the looshead and Koch the TH.

    @nta yes and when I try to read about them I get a lot of the man the myth articles..

    eg Frans

    but perhaps Ox is the loosehead because his head wobbles on that big chin? All irrelevant now I guess, the poor guy, Iooks like he has been dropped.

    Malherbe hardly in fine fettle either.
