Scots never looked like creating a try

Not sure on that performance you can say scots have taken a great leap forward
Game over. SAF 34 SCO 16.
No BP for SAF.
No bonus points for me for my margin tip of 24 to the Saffers on Superbru.

Ok. Move clocks forward and there's only an hour to wait
Catnap?
Time to get ready and head to the pub!

Boks looked like orcs in that white get up - seriously, can't they do better than white jersey and shorts for an alternate strip?

Disapointing, maybe if one or two things were different early on, if Hoggys passes didn't go forward, if the try was correctly adjudicated, De Jager given a telling after the shot on Cowan. Saffas were the better side, I simultaneously think the scoreline flattered them, but were equally unlucky not to get the bonus point. We now need the 2nd upset of the century from the Americans to top the pool, but that's not going happen.
Should beat the Samoans based on their performances so far, that'd give us 2nd regardless of the Japan States match.

South Africa were very average. We're back one dimensional bash it up crap.
Bismarck just hasn't hit the ON button and F Louw is a real passenger.
We're not playing rugby that can win this cup. It's too predictable.
And Henyeke Meyer thanked the lord for the win. I didn't know that God hated Scotland.

Stupid stuff as well. Hoggy's dive was literally idiotic, I'd wouldn't be against him being banned for a week.

Really? I didn't think they were too bad. Maybe it is boring, but by god it is tough to compete against with the monsters you have in your pack. Pure roid rage.
What kind of rugby would you like to see them play - ideally?

A little more variation and quite a bit more intelligence.
This is the problem. The one up bashing it up is too predictable. Australia, your lot and the Oirish have the defense to nullify this kind of play, and have over the last year. We have been at our most dangerous when we vary it more but I fear that Meyer is reverting back to the one dimensional brutish game plan that is too easy to defend when you front up physically.

They can play in lilac for all I care as long as they play decent rugby.
Bokke coming right in time for the important bits of RWC 2015.
Remember that Les Frogges came within a gnats dick of winning the last RWC after they lost a pool game to Tonga.
Bokke know how to play finals footy.

Which is the way world cups are won. I was happy with that performance, very physically commanding. We probably won't beat the All Blacks if we manage to win a quarter final, but this at least gives us a chance. Airy fairy basketball rugby won't get us near. No world cup I've watched has been won with running rugby - too defence-orientated, and you can lose the ball so easily at the breakdown.
