they surely cannot lose though! Right? :think:</p></blockquote>
<br>
Is it wrong that I hope they do?<br><br>
It's the least they deserve for what Heyneke Meyer had to go through last year. You want to bring politics into sport, it's what you deserve -
Brilliant work by Hendo and Toner.

Furlong under pressure at the scrum. Penalty coming up

And it comes to Ireland!!<br><br>
Jackson is going for the posts from halfway. <br><br>
Ambitious. -
Hits the right post!<br><br>
Le Roux clears -
Does this ref not know the meaning of advantage?

<p>Almost cant believe it.. Almost</p>

<p>Congrats Ireland, made history today, and I'm sure many more teams will continue to do so for a while.</p> -
Oh yes. <br><br>
That'll do nicely. <br><br>
14 men. Outstanding. <br><br>
Commiserations South Africa. -
Oh and I love the bookies<br><br>
Wales win on the handicap. <br><br>
England win. <br><br>
Ireland win. <br><br>
Treble handicap on Wales, England and Ireland win. <br><br>
Woo hoo! -
<p>great win for Ireland. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Man, the boks were dire. and that is being kind to them</p> -

<p>U20 quotas just lost to Argentina as well. And the sports minister has the nerve to say that it's teething problems and that we need to pray for the racists. If that's the case then I pray for you Mr. Mbalula</p>

<p>Nothing like a bok team today. no pride, urgency or ferocity. </p> -
Fairplay to Ireland. They played with heart and courage.<br><br>
SA strike me as finished (at least in the short term) as a world power. Imagine if the ABs had their record in recent times! -
<p>Only game I didn't get to watch. 14 men v SA in SA. A great win. Congrats to PH and the rest of the Irish Ferners. Great day, enjoy it. :drinks:</p>

<p>Well, I looked up the red card. My first reaction was yellow not red, but then I watched a second time. I think the green 6 takes off far too late to seriously charge the kick. That, combined with the contact to the head means I can see why the ref went red.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Still feels a bit weird for something that clearly doesn't have intent, but I can see why they got to where they got to. </p> -
<p>SA clearly in trouble as a rugby power. Ireland with its full squad and 15 men on the field you would expect to have an even chance of beating South Africa if the game was played in Dublin.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>14 men and away from home was something that was pretty much unthinkable. Not now.</p>
