All Blacks vs Boks

[Derm McCrum]

Not sure I agree with Nigel Owens shouting helpful directives to players all the time. Let him go, let him go he says to NZ players as the Bok player takes a quick tap. If NZ infringe, that's their problem, it's not as if the match is a cliffhanger.

@Chris-B. Auckland continue to produce excellent Crusaders and Ta$man players!

Will they take Codie off for HIA after coping a knee there?

It doesn't matter, he told a SAFFa to let it go twice earlier then gave him a penalty

[gt12]

Can't give that.

Have we ever down troued the Boks before? Beating them to nil has a nice ring to it.

A quick search reveals that it has happened at least three times before

1921 00 - 00 @ Athletic Park
1965 13 - 00 @ Carisbrook
1999 28 - 00 @ Carisbrook

They have got us back three times as well
1921 00 - 00 in Wellington
1928 00 - 17 in Durban
1960 00 - 13 in Johannesburg

didn't we win 19-0 in Cape Town sometime?

yep - google tells me 2008 in Cape Town, 16 august. McCaw was immense in that game.

@Pot-Hale He does the same for both sides and has kept the game flowing at top pace. Who gives a shit if he tells players to take their hands off before a penalty could be awarded.

[Chris B.]

@kev Every now and then you've got to put the boot in - otherwise people think you're Cliff Richard!

[Gunner]

What's happened to the SA kicking game?
Seems like it's been non existent in the last 40 minutes

[African Monkey]

Well done Ofa!

I do.

[Stargazer]

The Springboks are pathetic.

Why the fuck did Barrett kick that?

I think we'll see that as a turning point in this game.

[KiwiMurph]

And the Auckland prop scores - boom! Good boy Ofa!

[Mokey]

Try time. 43-0. Record margin.

[nostrildamus]

@African-Monkey Franks won't be happy. He broke the code.

It's like you have never watched a game where the ref does that...

[Virgil]

another thrashing dished out by the home team in Albany

@Pot-Hale Well congratulations on preferring to be pedantic rather than watching a fast game of rugby.
