Saturday’s 26-10 win over the All Blacks at Mbombela Stadium was our second ever biggest win over the old foe.

You have to go back to 1928, when we won 17-0, for a more resounding victory.

The crowd in Nelspruit were in fine voice as a late Willie le Roux try put the icing on the cake, leading to All Black jersey burnings and the like.

You really love to see it.

During the match, we also saw the airing of a hilarious ad featuring the Springboks themselves. Fresh off last week’s classic, where Siya, Faf, Lukhanyo and others showed off their musical prowess, this time the entire team was roped in to help.

CapeTalk said the advert, for MTN’s 5G offering, “shows the Springboks are not only winners on the field” and talked up the acting chops of the boys in green and gold.

Who knew Eben had it in him?

The only qualm I have here is about fibre ruining the game.

Which fibre Internet Service Provider (ISP) are you using, guys? The Q2 2021 South African ISP report, covered by MyBroadband, has MTN down as the 8th best ISP in the country.

Meanwhile, RSAWEB was voted the best in the Cape last year and crushed it in both the Q1 and Q2 report and is also running some outstanding home fibre deals at present across a range of networks.

Which specials are available in your neighbourhood will depend on the fibre network operator present. For those who live in an area where Octotel is present, you can now get a 35Mbps line for R295 a month for up to three months.

Openserve areas have promotions running on lines from 25Mbps and up, as do other networks.

Sort yourself out with speeds like that and you’re not going to leave Siya, Eben, or the rest of the Bokke stuck in limbo.
