Springboks vs Wallabies, July 24th 2010, Third Tri Nations Test

[Amobokoboko]

Mitchell playing such a good game. He's man of the match for me.

 

[Seaton]

Genia try, game over

Thats Aus's third right?

 

[Amobokoboko]

Awesome try by Genia.
Well done. Game over SA.

 

[Amobokoboko]

Good kick by O' Connor.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

South Africa are in some real trouble.

 

[Seaton]

That little shove pretty much sums up the Boks effort for this game

 

[Seaton]

Final score Aus 30- 13 SA

 

[Amobokoboko]

Genia try, game over

Thats Aus's third right?

I thought their second. Mitchell scored the first try, Genia the second, and Giteau missed only 1 penalty

Youre right

 

[Amobokoboko]

Overal opinion: Good game. Both sides played some good rugby. AUS played a very good first half but after 50 min. They became sloppy.
Mitchell man of the match.

Hard to say how AUS will do in the following games against SA.

PdV is in a huge pile of **** and I'm looking forward to what he has to say to the media.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Wallabies well deserved winners, congrats to them!
Mitchell was quality, and O'Connor impressed me, he made a few little mistakes, but generally was good,
Loved Pocock as well, again a few mistakes, gave away a few penalties, but in general was quality

Well done to the Wallabies, but I don't think they're going to be better than the All Blacks next week.

 

[smartcooky]

Not really convincing by the Wallabies, and Robbie Deans will not be 100% happy that they could only manage two tries, while conceding two.

What is more, they were unable to score while for the two 10 minute periods when the Boks had a man in the bin.

 

[Hurricane Nate]

PDV will really hate Ireland now. 3 Irish refs and 3 hidings, lookin forward to what he comes up with over the next few days. Can't see the Bok's doin any better at home they are that far off the pace with these new rules. Definitely suit NZ and AUS style of play alot better.

 

[Duckdee]

That was a good game, especially the first half.

 

[madflyhalf]

Wow! What a match from the Aussies!

They really have the enthusiasm needed at their age! Look at O'Connor, he is 82 "kilos wet and with stones in the pockets" (forgive me this italian way of speaking ), but he knocked down Schalk Burger and Matfield!!

Pocock is amazing, tough he deserved a yellow card in the first half (but let me say: mccaw could do that twice, without any cards, so let's move on ), MOM today!

Italian commentators underlined this: Richard Brown has played extremely well today, but he also is the worst backrow in the team today!


I think South Afrika must restart from some changes: out Fourie, out Januarie, for me must be sidelined Spies too, with Louw again in the XV!

Anyone spot the Eye gouge from Burger on Pocock and the punch/hit to the back of the neck later in the game also Burger on Pocock.

No, I didn't... really? maybe download the game and watch for it now..

 

[Duckdee]

I'm not sure it was gouging exactly.

 

[Haysie]

Yeah definitely an eye-gouge in there... Showed during the replays. Can he be cited now that it wasn't spotted?

I believe my prediction of +15 was out by only 2 points
