Australia v South Africa

Only a few hours to go until the Wallabies come up against the Sprinboks. Should be a good match with both side having plenty to play for. No quater will be asked or given though as the long standing rivalry is continued. The midweek football tie between Aus and SA turned out to be a very even affair but hopefully the Wallabies can make it a bit more one sided this time.

Can Robbie Deans experience in winning in SA break a 7 year drought for the men in gold? Lets hope so.

Go Wallabies.

I agree with you in that this is going to be one heck of a match - simply put, we HAVE to win. Just hope the ref, during the course of the game, does not become a closet team member of either side.

Go Bokke Go!

To the victor the spoils

Good luck to you both

And the spoils go to the Wallabies 27-15 for their firt win in SA since 2001. Was a tough match with quite a few injuries on both sides. The Wallabies defense in the fist half was awesome and one of their best performances so far this season.

I just hope that the injuries don't impact preparation for the next match too much.

hehe....I just knew when my notification of mail for this thread showed your name, who the victors were.

About time we won over there. I was getting sick of all the excuses such as altitude and everything else. This Kiwi coach has done wonders for our Wallabies.
