Pollard back and starting at 10

Pepe

They are losing their nerve.... 3 Reserve Backs! On the other hand, it is Tonga...

Bones

How the fuck does the ref allow a quick tap to be taken behind his back ? Bizarre

@Bones

Tonga being reffed like apartheid is still in full swing

Bovidae

So Pearce penalises Tonga for holding a SA player in at the ruck but then ignores a SA player clearly playing the ball on the ground before that try. Total BS.

Bones

And gives the first ever penalty for attacking players trapping the tackler in the ruck. Despite vermuelen purposefully rolling himself there to try to win the tackle..

Jesus these English referees and their rulings against PI nations...

Billy Tell

Tonga are trying to outmuscle SA. Doomed to failure.

Tordah

Le Roux is such a flakey Player, he should use head and shoulders

Tordah

Good on you Luke, nowhere near a yc

Tordah

That maul after the non yc was ridiculous, truck and trailer

Tordah

Hate that SA physio who always gets involved. Know your place, woman!

Billy Tell

Tonga have been so unintelligent this RWC.

@Tordah said in RWC Week 4: Springboks v Tonga:

She will have Rassie in her ear all game, but always too close to the action.

How was Vermulen’s no arm head missile not picked up at around 10 mins?

YC

@MiketheSnow
Mi don’t know should have been YC and possible PT

SA second try

No way Moody was supporting his own weight in the turnover

And hands beyond the ball
