@Stargazer Serious test of loyalties for me here. On the one hand I need the boks to deploy their rediscovered controlled brutality. And I'm psyched to see Willemse show his stuff from fullback.
On the other hand I really want my adopted countrymen, and particularly the boys representing my clubs, to put in an old-school canadian rugby shift. The sort of shift that would put a tear in the eye of Charon, Snow and were his eyes still here to see it Stormin Norman Hadley. And for the Canadian backs to do justice to the legacy of Rees, the Stewart brothers and Lougheed.
But I guess I'd settle for DTH to grab one more try so he can join that small group of players who have scored a try in 4 tournaments.
Is anyone watching this game? I doubt I'm going to stay up late for a game that's going to be a massacre and won't tell us much about the Springboks.

That's a cracking try by Reinach...
Yes - but he should really have passed the ball, not chip!

I wonder if they are looking to beat our PD?
does it make a difference? (genuine question)
This is outstanding so far by South Africa. They are bulldozing Canada like they are some U18 club team.
Springboks are fun to watch playing against a shit team. Especially without Willie le Roux fucking everything up with his crappy kicks directly into touch
