does anyone know...

[lara93]

yepp i got the word from the man himself..a broken nose to kankowski

[lara93]

havent heard very much else on injuries

[welshrugbyfan]

yepp thats schalk burger

I've praised him on three other forums and here goes again. Schalk Burger was fantastic, he was a huge difference in the team and without him something was missing. If that man says he's injured then there's a good chance it was painful. He's plays the game on the borderline of the rule book most of the time but it's not knitting it's rugby and if you get away with it and your team wins then history only shows the score, not "OOH Burger was a bit dirty".

Great atmosphere at the game, the Boks fans made it very enjoyable. I don't know what they were shouting sounded like "Boka" but it was great. Dissapointed that fans boo when opposition sides are going for a penalty kick or conversion. Any game played in Europe usually goes dead quiet when either team is going for a kick.

schalk is just amazing especially for his age...
he does play on the borderline of the rule book but thats how he plays rugby
i wonder what he did to himself last night?? because last weeks hit with ali williams was crazy..i thought he could of been KO but no he kept playing like nothing happened...purely made out of rock that guy..

It sounded more like 'All Blacks' from where I was sitting.

And as for the booing, it comes from the AFL arena, they are absolutely nuts when it comes to that.

[lara93]

it was crazy though..because you didnt hear the bok supporters booing when gits kicked!
but all the wallabies were booing when steyn or james kicked..bad sportsmanship

[force addict]

oh don't you worry, near me there was plenty of hoo haa when Gits was kicking for goal.

[robyn <3]

the bokka people sure booed near where i was!
i had the stupid idiot with the trupet near me... mind you, he was quiet after i threatened to snap it in half... noone messes with MY gits!!
i love how lote and aac were stretching behind the posts for francois's kick and the ref came nad told them off... it was so tempting to join in

[lara93]

i feel so sorry for kankowski

It just shows respect to be quiet, Landsdowne Road is the best place to see it, you can litteraly hear a pin drop no matter which team is kicking for goal. Just because AFL fans in Perth do it doesn't mean we should follow them. I mean they follow the stupidist game on the planet so they're slightly excused.

I don't know much about politics in South Africa but if we have so many Bok fans in Perth there must be something not good going on over there. I think it's great there are so many of you here and the support you bring rugby is most welcomed. It must have been great to see your national team in action. I only wish Wales would come to Perth.

Yes, I think you might be right there. Its so quiet at Lancaster Park, Carisbrook, Loftus Versfeld etc that you can hear a pin drop when a goal is attempted. Must have been influenced by AFL fans. We get so many of them at Wallabies matches.

Sorry Lara but they were booing where we sat as well, I don't like it but fans from both sides were doing it

Are you being sarcastic? If so, watch a AFL game at the MCG one time and you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.

[zimeric]

the reason for the Booing is simple
AFL


need i say more?

[laura]

Not a fan of the booing, dont care what the players do to distract the kicker but booing is uncalled for. Unfortunatley I think its just a part of sport that we have to put up with it.

The mexican wave last night...looked good going round the ground, but not while they are in the middle of play. After the game would have been great when the boys were walking around thanking the fans. IMHO
