    Drew made it on the field woohoo! Drew got 2 tries booyah, im hoping this means the ankle held up? Hopefully he makes the cut for this weeks Wallabies game!

    Just about half the team had a kick! Who was the flyhalf meant to be?
    Congratulations to them all!!

    brownie looked comfortable out there in no. 7- Gold suits him

    Bit quite in the frist half never far from the action - Hoiles was superb at No. 8 - took a lot of the limelight from our lad - whose s tackling skills were not required in this outing - got a couple of turnovers, a few big hits, never very far from the ball - not sure it was dazzling enough for Wallaby Selection.

    Don't know that this match is going to be enough to improve anybody's chances of Wallaby selection, there's not going to be a lot of respect for a team that goes down by 83 points even if they played well while doing it.

    agreed. i doubt this match will affect how Robbie thinks of somebody, cos everyone basically had a good game.

    Stephen Hoiles was in fact a stand out amonst all other stand outs though, and if i have to guess, he might pip brownie for a spot on the bench against the french.

    It was good to watch in the way that its nice to see us winning by that much, but yet, it wasnt really that exciting a game of rugby.

    “Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White

    its going to take an injury for drew to be included in the two tests against france deans has a pretty large squad to choose from, the same goes for hoiles even although he scored 4 tries it going to take a big effort and a bit of luck to get the no8 jersey off cliffy palu.....
