[Smuts]

Don’t begrudge the mars bar abusers Schoeman and DVDA but WP Nel deserved better than a tartan skirt.

[pakman]

If Scotland holds their own in set piece, or at least nearly so, their backs will ask some questions of Boks.
On other hand, scrum penalty/5m maul combo would quickly be pretty destructive.

He should be grateful the Scots threw him a bone more like.

The mighty thistles don’t just pick any old chump to play for them you know.

I'd like Scotland to win the RWC, without us playing them, cling to one record...

True, they can also pick young chumps.

30 mins to go

This could go either way

Epic tussle or an SA blowout

Really hope it’s the former

[Billy Tell]

Springboks look in mint condition…

[pakman]

Scotland hard done by in scrum before shot at goal.

[pakman]

Didn’t realise the Gayboks were playing Jocks?

[Victor Meldrew]

Love the old-style biff..

[Steve]

Not much space out there. Blanket defences.

[Steve]

ahaha Rassie with a light signalling system sending instructions to the players.

He is great value for money.

[Steve]

The refs comms with the players has been superb to be fair to him.

[Jailbreak7]

I cant help thinking the WC may be decided on TMO footage

Isn't that what Freddie Steward got sent off for against Ireland?

[Tim]

Nothing in that. Just a collision.

[MiketheSnow]

That’s fucking bullshit
The dirty fluffybunny went for a cheap shot and hurt himself in the process

YC every day

[MajorRage]

Seriously? Penalty for THAT?

[Victor Meldrew]

Darcy Graham butchers a 2 on 1 overlap by going for glory.
