Moeraat should not even be in the team never mind captain. Perhaps Mapimpi is past his best so Moodie should get an opportunity.Malcolm Marx is an impact player, Jaden Hendrickse should be the fourth rated scrumhalf. In retrospect Libbok should have started with Pollard closing out the game and winning with his kicking the penalty. On the positive side, Ox was magnificent, Eben was fantastic and physical and the props were all excellent.
Where did things go wrong. 1. Moerat where have you ever seen an enforcer top fit lock and captain of the springbok walk on the pitch. He is weak please send him back to the stormers and leave him there. He did not lead of once spoke to the ref like the pumas captain. He did not even fight for CLA. Reinach man his kicking was up to shit. Only thing he could do was score a trie. He is pass sell by date. Our line outs was shit until eben came on and he and Marx just click. Why was BJD standing next to the scrum in halfback position instead being part of the scrum. The golden boy and blue eyed boy really cost us deeply. Manie never should have taken the last kick to the post even though a 6yr old would have made the kick. Golden boy moerat swallowed his tongue Am spoke to the ref. There was just no communication between the captain and ref nothing. The ref really was not bad so can't complain about except the 2 dangerous tackles 1 was on cla can't remember the other player. Moerat never ask about it i am disappointed really. I know we can't always win but judging by game we really have a problem if the pumas beat us and the blue eyed boy could not slot a 3 pointer instead of going for the corner
Moerat is not for this level , chewing gum in a pre press in front of the World, we are not a club team , his obviously not champion pedigree - his energy and presence is missing , the experiment should be over now !!! Everytime he has captained the team we were losing in those minutes he played , in fact when he went off we starting gaining momentum and unfortunately he came back on. - Theres always a player thats selected that can be the Achilles of the team , just hope this is corrected and not persisted on.
Libbok should not be in the 23 squad,what a disappointment. He can not handle pressure.Not just the kick he did not get over,kicking the ball dead on a penalty aswell.That is basics.Get out Libbok and put in a real Bok, please.
Although a team with 10 changes I think the on field team lacked leadership. Our defense was poor. A game we could have won. A result good for rugby in general. Well done Pumas 👏
Let the young guns gain experience through these types of matches - our main aim for them is to be sleek, tough and battle ready for the 2027 World Cup. Let's all of us be realistic: the Springbokke are not going to win all matches - from our losses we learn....winning everything will make our Springbokke too complacent....look what is happening to AB's and everyone can speak about the AB's golden years - not wanting to accept that Rugby is progress and competitive sport.
Serious question here, and I do believe in giving players a chance to develop and prove themselves, but Moerat doesn't present himself as either a captain or enforcer on the field.
I hope Moerat and Libbok take all this in stride and work on their game and focus in big moments... I recall all this being said in the early days of Siya kolisi's captainship... that so many others were better suited/up to the task of captainship over him. Today its undeniable how good he has been in the role, despite his many detractors today still...
Moerat did more in this interview than he did on the field. Not worthy of putting on the Springbok jersey nevermind being captain. Manie Misbok did Manie Misbok things - no surprises. Bring on Nelspruit! Bokke will bounce back.
Please forgive, if I am late to this thread but after last Saturday's😮game do you still feel the same way about mannie, he doesn't need to kick we have played for years before with fly-halfs that do not kick... Do not let the Pollard era stop you for seeing other players for what they do
Key points : - Lackluster performance - Moerat doesn’t have what it takes - Libbok should never touch a Bok jersey again - Well done to Argentina - great crowd - Springboks aren’t as good as they think - Rassie trying to be too smart and got burnt
Nothing wrong with the team selection, players did not execute, that yellow card hurt us. Good outing and now we know how much work is ahead. Rassie did say there will be losses on the road to the World Cup. We are not invincible, let’s be honest about it. And players require rest.
As good as Rassie is I have to believe that he's had a certain amount of luck, because how he can't see the issues with Moerat and Libbok is beyond any thinking person.
You don’t win 2 rwc with luck. But you are right. Libbok and Moerat simply aren’t good enough. Libbok had enough chances to improve, Moerat deserves patience from us to prove himself.
@@armin8768 Sure, but it seems like their are elements of luck. Rassie is good, but that doesn't excuse his blindness on certain obvious players. What has Moerat done to deserve patience, why not another better URC lock, Ruan Vermaak is a lot better.
@@bitcoinnewsview5 Rassie has already proven that he is the top coach worldwide the past 8 years. If you’ve seen CTS1,2 you would have seen his mindset at the beginning of a cycle straight after the rwc. He puts guys with potential under pressure in big tests as soon as he can because he thinks 4 years ahead. This test was a low risk bet for him to do that. Like I said, Moerat is not good enough yet, hopefully he will get there. But if he is nit he must go! Libbok has great skills outside of kicking for points but that’s not enough. He has proven over and over he has no big match temperament. So we agree on these points. But chances that Rassie is more intelligent than you and me combined in terms of rugby is 99% imo😆
Springboks are still a champion side don't be fickle & too harsh on your team/players/Coach. Everyone loses sometimes, it would be pointless if we always knew the outcome of a game. Congratulations Argentina your country will be so proud. Up the Southern Hemisphere Rugby Championship 🖤💚💛💙 ....... all day
17 - 0 against the supposed best and ranked num 1 in the world shouldn't be a come back and argentina came back like they were playing against themselves 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🔥
17 - 0 against the supposed best and ranked num 1 in the world shouldn't be a come back and argentina came back like they were playing against themselves 👏🏾👏🏾well done springboks 😂😂😂
Guys, it's my fault, too. I was so aragant I didn't even wash my Bok jersey for the match. Don't forget, win or lose we with our boys and they gonna show class on Saturday. A learning experience is still a valuable experience.
It's sounds like the world has come to an end. The bigger picture, not one player. As Rassie, if Manie slotted the penalty, the comments would have been different.
Getting tired of we made a lot of mistakes. They're professional players, if I make mistakes in my work I'd be fired. We had an opportunity to keep our winning % but fucked it. Their attitude on the field of some players were embarrassing. Thought you are playing for something more than yourself? Guess not, you lied. If you want a kicker being able to performed under pressure, Jordan Hendrikse showed us how this weekend.
On that international rugby level. I think Libbok should of put that ball over. School rugby kids put that over. I rate Libbok and his a great player with ball in hand. I think we shouldnt let him kick.
Manie lacks BMT. That unfortunately cannot be taught. Salmaan is not an enforcer. He struggles to just get the basics right. Our defence has gone backwards. We need to look at the system we employ. We can put a couple of world class packs together when all the locks are fit. Our hooker development is lacking though and will be exposed if we have an injury. Bongi and Marx need a couple of good deputies. Our backline evolution is trailing our forward evolution, especially in the centres. We need to groom more centres (Henco, Hooker and Canan?) and a 3rd flyhalf to go with Sasha and Pollard, Jordan? We need to add a dynamic loose forward, Cameron?
Question and I need the answer how can sa get back at number 1. Since Ireland hasn’t played New Zealand yet meaning if they lose does that put us back up.
mannie had one chance to redeem himself as a bok player, yes it didnt have to come to that one kick but he also opted to overcook to the sidelines when he had a chance to kick to the poles.....this lose wasnt deserve , we really wanted to win the championship by straight 6 wins but not with libbok.
How many chances must Moerat get,to " prove " himself ??.He just does not cut it as a international player .Period !! And Libbok kicking ......And lately Marx and Bongi cant find their jumpers .A few years ago Marx could not find his jumpers,and that trend is starting to happen again.
Bad luck Boks. We lacked leadership and killer instinct. Moerat great guy but maybe its too soon to make him captain? Arendse yellow was debatable. We missed DDA punching holes in the midfield. PSDT also sorely missed
Rassie was the architect of what happened in the match. He loves drama. It will be so funny, no not funny if his publicity plan goes wrong and we loose the next match because he planned this. He had players playing in wrong position(Am). He should have played Mannie from the start and brought in Pollard from the bench. He wanted the drama for next match between the Springboks and Argentina. He loves attention. "ANEDRAMA"
It will backfire. “How to lose when you’re winning” will be the name of the book he writes. Story of the World Cup when we could have lost was it not for the perfect kicking of Pollard. You shouldn’t have to be perfect with kicking to win tight matches . We could’ve won this by 20 or 30. Why can we not be clinical? And the ridiculous attempts to steal the ball instead of putting in crushing tackles. Enough of that already.
Rassie is a good coach but hell cant he see that Libbok and Moerat is not international players , how many games did Libbok cost the team , i think players get fed up when one player throw it down the drain ,
What is Tony brown and that Irish guy that is defence coach doing in this management team. Surely we can use our own coaching management and not over sea coaches.
@@Qalbee75 A Saru report earlier this year was highly critical of rugby in SA "not reaching their (racist non-merit) transformation targets". Recently the new non-ANC SA sports minister Gayton McKenzie aknowledged that there are racist anti-merit ANC sports requirements that he wants te get rid of. Become aware of ANC-Saru non-merit racist sports quota requirements and oppose it. Racism unfortunately merely swopped colours in 1994, although the understanding reached was that it would stop. Stop being a hypocritical bigoted racist please.
Hey guys let face it… the Bok defence was abysmal … key missed tackles which really showed a lack of commitment by senior players among forward and backs. Moerat showed absolutely no leadership … and is not an international standard lock. Am is over his best and has lost his feel on defense … Let’s not even mention NO BMT MANIE…clutch kicks are what he is on the field for and he failed again. For the Boks to leak 4 tries in 35 mins really showed the lack of defensive unity.
Tell me about it. So irritating to watch players more interested in interceptions or ripping the ball out instead of tackling. At times the ARG runner would gain 10 or 15 metres after initial contact before being brought to ground. You lose territory against Argentina you risk losing the game. So we did. Pin them back in their half, milk the points and profit from their mistakes when they take those big risks.
Moerat is not for this level , his not earned the right to be Captain , his not world class , - he ate chewing gum at the pre game press conference , i knew then already we will lose today , no exuberance of confidence on the field, his head was down - zero!!
we have so many fantastic loose forwards, does Eskom really need to be there? I just dont get it. i misses tackles, work rate is tragic, slow on his feet.... Moerat and Eskom should be dropped. we have much better players
An aging returning from injury Am over Esterhuizen at 12 speaks volumes for other selections. Be careful, the provincial teams can very quickly become a bottle neck for the National side and long term development. Just look at the persistence of Sharks locks over the last few years before Eban. No logical explanation.
Moerat still in grade 1 in springbok rugby manie out please there are lot off keakers rassie stop your favours if it is kwota that force you there are a lot better players look jordan sharks lot of good kickers please i get sick if we loose
So why were you over-confident to not put in your best team? You should have played with your “best/better” selection this week, to secure your championship, and then use the rest of the games to allow for testing opportunities for the rest of the players. With respect 🫡
Moeraat should not even be in the team never mind captain. Perhaps Mapimpi is past his best so Moodie should get an opportunity.Malcolm Marx is an impact player, Jaden Hendrickse should be the fourth rated scrumhalf.

Yes. Very much so
