Bokke are cooked. England had them on the ropes. They are soft and can't handle pressure.

Smiler all RWC you've been coming in at the side on our match threads and taking sly jabs at unfortunate Bok supporters who get isolated, hidden sucker punches to the face the TMO misses, before rolling away and never venturing back onto the threads. I've seen you using the classic pop up attack method of foruming, the coward's gambit.
Now you have what you wanted and there's no place to hide, and what do we get ... "peaked too early"???
Had more fight in you for the Bok pool matches. Weak.

Not tears of rage, but tears of pity. Not words said in anger but out of concern, concern for an efriend who on the eve of a once in a generation match, is more concerned with getting one over poor old Ox.

In times past would have supported the All Blacks in this without a moments thought but would not be sad to see Kolisi skipper the Boks to his second title.
Hoping the game is as close and nail biting as 1995.

No doubt they will lift for the final. I thought the Springboks looked half asleep today, like they didn't want to be there. Confused and amused by England's antics they did eventually do what needed to be done, but left it very late.OomStruisbaai wrote: Sat Oct 21, 2023 9:44 pm All Blacks had the easy draw.

SA will try to do an England next week to try put the ABs off their game but the ABs' pack are at another level now. Might not be so easy.
Marx a massive loss for the Springboks v All Blacks. Could be the difference.

I have much more confidence for the final for various reasons. Bokke need to be underdogs. We have been there in 2019. We put up a record score at Twickenham. All Blacks can't scrum, exct

The Boks played their final against the Frenchies last week. They looked mentally and physically fatigued last night. Add another hard and draining game to this and I doubt that they cam lift themselves again for next week.
On the other hand New Zealand had a tough game against the Irish, but then an easy semi final.
Physically and mentally they will be above the Boks.

You are basing this on a single pre RWC game. We just crunched the Argies in to dust in the scrums. So I’m feeling like we are in a better place now.OomStruisbaai wrote: Sun Oct 22, 2023 7:11 am I have much more confidence for the final for various reasons. Bokke need to be underdogs.

I'm sure they won't be as bad next week but the odd selections and undermining of players is with them now, while the ABs look settled, determined and building.

I get that. Placing pressure on the ball carrier at tackle and ruck, but there's something different about the ABs and their pack in the last few weeks.
