Stan shat the bed for the last 15 minutes of the loser play off, if it happens tomorrow I will be very angry.
Looking forward to this final
Poo.
Stayed on ok for me.
But for those saying you can get the Sky NZ comms on Stan, can you give step by step instructions or admit you're trolling us?
Have not found the magical option.
Wrote to Stan even, and they don't know how to do it. Apparently there is no option to do so ...
As the others have said it is there, but quite close to the broadcast start time. Don't use the massive banner link to watch the game. From the home landing page go to Sport -> Rugby -> scroll down to Upcoming Live rugby, there should/will be two options for the game live, one will have the additional label showing 'NZ Commentary'.
Thanks. Will try.
Do not try!
Come on Booboo, you can’t be changing shit up this late - I’ll be listening to whatever bastard Stan throws at me, and so should you.
All you fuckers better be doing the exact same shit that you did for the QF and SF!!!
I was at Ellis Park in 95 and watching the pre match celebrations it was impossible not to feel that it wouldn't be the end of the world if Boks won.
Pakman Senior passed on Thursday.
Junior and I in St. Denis tonight and calling in the chit.

Fucking hell, green shirts everywhere.
Are you consoling the Irish fans?

@gt12 Yeah, a friend just messaged me from Paris that there are way more Saffers.
Bit like Ellis Park then. Good omen.👍

Rain definitely suits the Springboks
We win this it"s a definite Sir Foz -
@BerniesCorner Not sure, wet weather tends to reward good technique.

Had some posh food in a Kensington restaurant with the family.
Donning the black scarf heading to the Famous 3 Kings pub where the evening starts
COME ON SIR FOZ YOU GOT THIS -
80 mins is up on the clock. ABs down by two have a scrum on their own 22. Big Shannon and Nugget are back in the stands watching nervously and Easy Company is on. Water carriers tend to the Bok front row. Niche stares at the water bottle for a moment seemingly transfixed. A look of ice cold steely resolve passes between Cane and his forward troops. This is it. Last roll of the dice. Rain cruelly lashes the scrum as it goes down, both packs straining under their torrid work. Ball is out, Ardie gathers, with an outrageous dummy to his right, feints, but goes left, driving powerfully on through the would be tacklers. He is finally brought down though, placing the ball for ever present Whitelock, who clears quickly and ABs work a move through Richie popping an inside ball to Jordan who slices through besting defenders on a nice arcing run. Etzebeth manages to get a hand on him though, does just enough to check and change the angle as PSDT arrives to complete the tackle. Cane weighs in with a herculean effort to clear bodies, for a fast and ever alert Paps to seize the ball, breaking away from the ensuing ruck 22 meters out.
Kriel and De Allende look to have him covered forcing him to the left flank, then just as Kriel makes the covering tackle, suddenly a ginger mop looms to his right, out of nowhere..it is Christie! In one movement as he is falling in the tackle Paps miraculously lobs the ball in true basketball fashion over the outstretched arm of De Allende where Christie magically plucks it out of the air...only the FB to beat.
But wait....Aura (who has been sunning herself on the beaches in Ireland, now speaks perfect French) and Suzy sit huddled together deep in conversation, look to have done a deal!
...Christie sees the danger, what will he do? Then with an effortless grace he steps off his left foot leaving the hapless defence grasping at air, and scampers in under the posts. ABs win by five. It is done.
..Somewhere in the crowd I can hear the deep booming laughter of Aura reverberating around the stadium.... -
Heading back to the hotel from a family gathering in Burgess Hill. Depending on the WiFi reception, may see you all on the other side.
