[RWC2023] South Africa vs Ireland (23/09/2023)

[AngloScotsHybrid]

Does the bomb squad name still apply? When the name was first given South Africa were starting their best front row on the bench and bringing them on as a unit after 50 mins. Now they are bringing on second choice props and a hooker that isn't really a hooker.

It's my stag do. I'm ******. Please reply with the general consensus of how things are going so far.

It's now been called the nuclear option lol. But you make a very good point

They've got me in an Irish football jersey. But I've made friends with the local rugby players by identifying their positions based on their appearance (of course the mullet man was a wing, and the boisterous one was a loose forward/hooker).

But I have an Englishman and a German in Springbok jerseys, so I'm winning there.

Gives a new meaning to the slang "they're the bomb."

Faf de Klerk makes Gareth Davies look like a giant.

 

[Jimbo]

Is that not a knock on from POm?

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Oh do be quiet, Sexton.

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Two stolen lineouts in two mins.

 

[Lé Ddanno]

First time I've ever been able to appreciate how good PoM is

 

[ntun82]

Can a team be that good with such a bad lineout?

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Getting Keenan to clear out is not ideal. What happened there?

 

[ntun82]

This traffic light thing Is the most pathetic thing I have ever seen

Kenan of Kenan & Kel might be a better option even.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Was that ringrose who got clattered then? Probably the end of his day

 

[Jimbo]

Hate that your not allowed to lift in the maul but in play it's perfectly acceptable.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Etzebeth man-mored by a winger

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Feels like ages since Ireland got a proper choke reward

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

That's going to be doing the meme rounds

HOW THE **** IS MANBUN LIFTING EBEN ETZEBETH INTO THE SKY
