Wobblies pip Bokke

August 5, 2006

Mat Rogers scored a try in the game's waning minutes and spoiled a famous Bok upset in Sydney this morning. The Bok team that was ruthlessly pounded by 49 points in Brisbane two weeks ago were much more game, and if not for some poor goal kicking by Percy Montgomery, the Boks could have walked away with the win. In the end, the difference between the two teams was a missed conversion. Wallabies win 20-18.
