@dylmjack Agreed. We should have converted more entries, but when Ireland had the opportunity to tighten the screws, they went for goal. When we could, we scrummed or chose mauls. They defended like a team that didn’t want to lose by more, but they didn’t play with the intent to win.

[Marco Botha @MarcoBotha]

@dbbovey I disagree Darrel. We should have converted more points opportunities, but the cards will overshadow just what an extraordinary victory this was: until the final whistle, we dominated Ireland in scrums, line-outs, and on defence. That was planned and executed to perfection.

10yrs back - any word of 2nd season sponsorship? @ThysLombard @MarcoBotha

[Marco Botha @MarcoBotha]

@dbbovey I'm thinking Jaime killed her mother because she's in love with Daniel and knew her parents wouldn't approve. Likely knew he was adopted. She saw her father's killing and seized the opportunity. She also assumed Daniel wouldn't want to go to Oxford anymore, but was wrong ...

While I am annoyed with myself for clicking on the click bait, it does allow me to say that the reason that, in the words of 'Ben Smith', South Africa has no 'unofficial world titles' (whatever those are) is that they are understandably pleased with their four official ones.
