With Ireland’s club rugby season returning soon, it is about time I seriously start promoting my freelance photography more. For those of you that are new, or finding this without originally being a follower of mine, allow me to introduce myself:

@RoryPetzer Wish I could, nowhere to watch it at all in the UK

[Stephen Kisbey-Green @Stephan_KG]

@jaredwright17 He’d probably have been a Springbok 2 years ago if that first knee injury didn’t come at the exact wrong time.

If I’m not mistaken, himself and Hooker were head to head in that year, and many had Hencu ahead of Hooker in the pecking order

@jaredwright17 Annndd breathe 😮‍💨

[Stephen Kisbey-Green @Stephan_KG]

@FrontRowGrunt In fairness, only Asenathi Ntlabakanye, Morne vd Berg, Chris Smith (sometimes) and Quan Horn have actually passed for the Lions today. Mills in particular has blown at least 3 potential overlaps by crashing up instead of feeding Van Wyk

[Stephen Kisbey-Green @Stephan_KG]

@greenbokke It’s great for the South Africans and Kiwis that live in the States that can go, but I don’t think it’s the best place to have this game

[Stephen Kisbey-Green @Stephan_KG]

So no South African fans will be able to afford to travel, and they’ll find it very difficult to be allowed into the country as well…

Would’ve preferred Croke Park if it wasn’t in SA or NZ…

@greenbokke Look, I’m not saying they don’t need to grow the game in the States, but the current climate and relations between the USA and SA are far from great, and a fixture this big is wasted on a crowd that will likely not be as South African or Kiwi as it should be.

[Stephen Kisbey-Green @Stephan_KG]

@greenbokke But Baltimore? The USA is a big country, can’t imagine Baltimore has the biggest South African diaspora in the country, and can’t imagine its close enough to the big Saffa centres in the country to draw a massive ‘home’ crowd.

You’d get more Saffas in Twickenham or Dublin

[Proteas Men @ProteasMenCSA]

🚨 MATCH RESULT 🚨

What a phenomenal comeback!

#TheProteas Men take the second T20I by 51 runs, leveling the series 1-1 with three games still to play. 🇿🇦🔥

#Unbreakable

[Jared Wright @jaredwright17]

Nope. Disagree. He should have kept his cool. The most experienced Springbok. Ever.

Eben runs the risk of a gouge with the scuffles he gets into.

Paid the price this time.

[Jared Wright @jaredwright17]

It's possible that Alex Mann did something to set Eben Etzebeth off.

But there is no excuse for a player of his experience to react in that manner.

He deserves a big ban.

[Stephen Kisbey-Green @Stephan_KG]

@thepaulwilliams Paul, the Boks are being forced to play 9 forwards in the start XV because they don’t have enough backs (winks at Andre😂)

In all seriousness though, it’s a massive Bok team, but one injury in that backline and there could be some serious restructuring needed on the day

[Nigel Owens MBE @Nigelrefowens]

Rugby is a game for all shapes and sizes. Depower the scrum anymore and you may as well watch a rugby league match.
It will destroy the community game if there is no place for your good old fashioned type of prop.
Keep meddling with the game and you will destroy it.

[Stephen Kisbey-Green @Stephan_KG]

@Brendennel Hope you’re doing alright yourself Brendan!

[Stephen Kisbey-Green @Stephan_KG]

You never know who needs a call or to be checked up on. Look out for each other please

[Brenden Nel ⚒ @Brendennel]

Its been a long year. Check in on your mates. Life is short. They may need a call. We may all need a call.
