Weren't the South Africans Great in New Zealand?

Question

Yesss! First time in a hundred years on their soil. Are our Bokke great or what?

Answer 1

It was an amazing game and it took an amazing try to win for south africa.

i think we can all agree that ref was hopeless but at least he was hopeless for both teams

Answer 2

I hope referee Goddard, err, sorry, Devillard, never does an All Black-Springbok game again.

Springboks deserved their victory, especially after that piece of brilliance by Januarie in the dying stages.

I've gotta correct you though - it is only your first win in 100 years in Carisbrook. You have beaten New Zealand more recently than that on NZ soil - the last one was at Wellington in 1998.

Answer 3

Well done the boks, they did play with more passion than NZ, particularily in the first half.

Both teams were in in all the way thorugh, and it could have gone either way.

So well done again to the boks, a great match regardless of who you were supporting.

Answer 4

Hundred years? I thought it was ten. But anyway yes the Springboks were brilliant today, again showing that they are deserving World Champions.

Answer 5

amazing amazing game.

ricky januarie (or was it bolla conradie, i get them confused sometimes) was the hands down man of the match.

probably the best match ive seen in a long time. that should have been the world cup final.

amabokoboko ngenkani!!!

Answer 6

Yep, fantastic. simply awesome. Lets not forget - for all the cries of racism and discrimination coming from white sa supporters when he was appointed...Peter Devilliers succeeded where jake white and co failed.

Answer 7

It was their first win at Carisbrook in 100 years of trying but they last won here in 1998. The boks were awsome and Graham Henrys average selections got exposed big time. I think its hillarious that despite running sideways and going nowhere for most of the night because Lauaki scored a try after he was put in a gap hes basically being described as a human wrecking machine what a joke !!! and none of the journalists seem to want to acknowledge that Rodney is just not a No. 7 and got exposed severley twice tonight and then there is Borich, Thompson, Kevin O Neil, Kaino(Who I think deserves to be there but not as an 8) there is a lot of other players who had much better seasons than these guys that missed out

Answer 8

Nope they arent great at all

Answer 9

Good game...the scene is set for an interesting tri-nations....still loving my AB's...but perhaps having Jason Eaton on the bench would have been a better bet than O'Neill....Eaton has more big match experience...blah, blah, blah

Januarie is the man...(that's why I don't like him LOL)  I think JImmy Cowan would be a bit more aggressive than Ellis with a halfback like Januarie...he broke my heart last night...LOL

Answer 10

annecat... it was the first time in 100y in dunedin city  , not again n z  it was a great game

Answer 11

Three tries to one, a dazed and confused man-child referee, no captain, and Mattfeild sent off, and coming off a spanking the week before, and . . . a loud mouth ******** puppet coach.  

Unreal performance from the Bokke. But Kiwis expect nothing less from RSA - They have a record of winning when it matters and I doubt we can knock em over in Capetown next month, but we will certainly have a crack, the winner of that game will take the trinations unless Aussie stand up and represent.

Answer 12

The all blacks played horrible! It was no where near their best team! likea good 5 players out from injury etc.

Yet the score was what 30 28......... man you guys played really good.......................................

Answer 13

Yes the Bokkes were great.  Look out the Aussies next week.

There might be blood on the walls in the AB selection room next time it meets.

Answer 14

Ohhhhhh the difference a week makes
