Must say that was the best bok game I’ve seen ruan play ever. Matfield play surprisingly well too, lets keep perspective though, this was agnst the W15.
That moment late in the second half where lambie jumped onto the back of a player was some what strange .. Your not that heavy pat, that move only works with jannie lol

Error: Unable to create directory wp-content/uploads/2019/12. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
Great opening game for the Boks. As far as I am concerned Burden is a better bet for the world cup than Strauss. Marcell was my MOTM, he was immense and he was everywhere. Matfield certainly needs to learn how to clean out at the ruks and he cant dominate a tackle without help. Willie was good except his strange tackling technique. Pollard was shocking today apart from the pass to put Reinach away. Lambie was fantastic when he came on and so was Reinach and Schalk. Our centres look very dangerous. Whiteley was good and showed why he is a valuable asset in the squad. I would start Lambie, Reinach and Schalk for Pollard, Pienaar and Flouw for the Aussie game. But nevertheless great game by the boys and I am confident of.us doing very well this season

boks always look good agnst the w15, the true test is the nxt three games agnst oz, arg and nz. That will give us a better perspective on what we need to work on leadinh into the wc
Im really impressed by de ellande’s play yester. To think he was playing club rugby down here in cape town 2.5 yrs ago
is there a review anywhere on the net of the u21 game ths weekend against wp ?
If so, please post the link
@revolverocelot (Comment 251) : Here is a short write up from one site:
“DHL Western Province 13 (0), Cell C Sharks 17 (3)
The Cell C Sharks came away with a close, but well-deserved 17-13 win over the DHL Western Province at City Park on Saturday. The visitors used the windy and cold conditions better and took control in the second half of a tight match, thanks to a powerful bench that included Thomas du Toit and Dan du Preez. They also capitalised on some ill-discipline from the home side, with scrumhalf Rowan Gouws kicking four penalties.
Scorers:
Western Province 13 (0). Try: Christo van der Merwe (replacement flank). Conversion: Ernst Stapelberg (flyhalf). Penalty: Stapelberg.
Sharks 17 (3). Try: Riaan O’Neill (flyhalf). Penalties: Rowan Gouws (scrumhalf, 4).

Before we get too excited about this World XV game lets just remember to take it in context. This game was vital as a hit out before the more serious stuff so in that regard it was good. World XV were pretty average but the way they dominated 2nd half possession doesnt bode well for Boks fitness. Boks still allow opposition to stay in the game through many penalties. Having said that i thought it was a good first hit out and HM was able to try a few things and combos. Ive said it before- the bench will play a huge role this WC and in that regard i was pleased with who was on the bench and how HM used them.
