AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME

Moving on to Saturday, WHO WOULD HAVE PREDICTED THE GIANTS OF SOUTHERN HEMISPHEREAN RUGBY BEING KNOCKED OUT OF THE WORLD CUP AT THE QUARTERFINAL STAGE. SHOCKING.


FIRST THE WALLABIES, all of them thought all they needed to do was to show up and the game was won, forgetting THE POMS are the defending champions at this world cup….. What a pathethic performance by Australia. The loss off Stephen Larkham showed, he is after all 75% of the Wallabies.


"I will moer you mate", "No I will moer you mate"


"You are late mate"


"let me nail gregan & his boys"


English Joy, "we have done it mates"


Moving on to the overwhelming tournament favourites, who rested their top players during the first half of the super 14, Captain my Captain Richie Mccaw’s hands in the face says it all. New Zealand is the best rugby team in the world with the best players; no doubt, but they were beaten by a determined team on the day. France are, after all, not MINNOWS and they are playing in their own backyard. If the boks do reach the finals, I would prefer us to face the POMS instead of the French. We did wallop the POMS during the group stages, I do know that in a final they would be better but I think we would stand a better chance against them.



"I CANT EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED"



ALL BLACKS ARE GUTTED



THE VICTORIOUS FRENCH



ALL BLACKS STUPIDITY



FRENCH DETERMINATION




"FOUR MORE YEARS MATE"

In the BOKS vs FIJI game, on the 67th minute with the score 23 20 to SA, JP PIETERSEN made a try saving tackle. Had the try been scored, we do not know what could have happened. For me that was the turning point of the game. The FIJIANS did give us a scare by scoring two quick tries within 2minutes to level the score 20 all with 14 men. The BOKS should have never allowed that to happen but credit to the FIJIANS. What all these matches have shown is that you underestimate your opponent at your own expense. DAMNNNN…………………………..

Nice article sda.

My weekend was a shocker. First watching Australia choke then New Zealand then waking up on Sunday and seeing the TK was murdered headline. I went straight back to bed. Then Hamilton's car suddenly has a problem. me thinks something is smelling like sabotage.

My blood is green. Boks you beauty.

Eish, the rugby was good to watch. I love watching sports when it world cup(except cricket, i can watch cricket anyday)...so yesterday, while watching rugby, i cudnt stop laughing at how much of a contact sport it is, its like, dey can do anything to get u down.

Now, if de are some rugby enthusiasts, pls explain this to me:

1. The last try de boks scored, dey were doing wat i think is called a "Scrum", but they kept repeating it. Are they supposed to do that until a try is scored, coz i think dat lasted like 10 minutes.

2. When they do the scrum, sometimes the ball just sits there unattended, and then, as though suddenly realising that the ball is actually there, someone picks it up.

3. Why is it that after some tries, another "free kick" is allowed, and de team ends up scoring like 8 points?

4. A try is 5 points rite? A  "free kick" is 3? Which is 3 points?

Yeah, i think dats all...Sdakamiswa, sorry for hijacking your blog, but you reminded me of yesterdays game, so i had to ask...

The trie is 5 points then there is a conversion which is 2points.

A penalty is worth 3 points. given when the other team commits a foul and gets penalised for that.

Then there is a drop goal. its worth 3 points. its when a player in open play kicks the ball in between the posts.

The springboks kept on repeating the scrum because the Fiji team kept on collapsing the scrum which is not allowed. 

Amazing

@username

Hamiltons car did not fail. He made an error, he failed to control (turn) his car when entering the pitlane, as a result he went straight into the gravel. This was because of a lack of grip in his tyres, they were worn out. The stewards tried to push him back onto the grid but failed, the car could not move it was just spinning in the gravel. He cannot blame anyone for that except his team for keeping him longer than necessary when they saw that he was batttling for grip and losing pace before finally telling him to pit.

@Renegade....

1. The move is called the rolling maul. Teams use the technique to gain meters and launch attacks on the opposition, especially if the forwards of the attacking team dominate the opposition. The opposition often tends to collapse the maul resulting in them being penalised, giving an advantage to attacking team.The springboks used the rolling maul resulting from the scrums perfectly in the last ten minutes.
