Have we ever down troued the Boks before? Beating them to nil has a nice ring to it.
A quick search reveals that it has happened at least three times before

The Boks just drew with the Wallabies. Oz-Argentina game could be interesting later today.
Aus to hammer them imo.
@PN maybe but I'd pay to see Creevy vs Hooper.

@Pot-Hale Well congratulations on preferring to be pedantic rather than watching a fast game of rugby.

Thank you. One of the elements of a fast paced game is speed of thought and movement to catch the opposition unawares. I don't need the ref flagging this to the opposition to make sure they don't infringe. But hey that's just me. :).

@Pot-Hale He does the same for both sides and has kept the game flowing at top pace. Who gives a shit if he tells players to take their hands off before a penalty could be awarded.
I do.
Infinitely better for the game than those French refs in June.

Now that just sounds sour. Unnecessary.

Very noticeable that we lack penetration or a straight runner in midfield now that SBW is off. He is essential for our backline to function effectively.

Only other player that can fill the role is Laumape, but he's still very raw at this level.

@Pot-Hale The BIL was an awesome tour, I just don't like their kiwi coach!

It is sour, they were several grades down from Owens.
Unnecessary is an Irishman continually labouring the point about the referee in a Boks vs ABs game.
