ABs can count themselves very lucky. I guess you make your luck but the Boks gifted them a win.

Great contest. Lots of positives for the Boks. Discipline was better. Struggled a bit with handling at times.

Uncontested scrums is an absolute abomination. Just the moment the game turned.

Find it so irritating when the kicker purposely wastes time and watches the clock until it clocks over.

Our starting 15 was all round good except for Hendricks, what an abortion of a player ....... and then once we made changes, Strauss, Trevor, Koch, Flip - our game went to hell.

Do not want Jean back, De Allende and Kriel work bloody well and they need to stay.

All Blacks always been a 80min side. Good win by them again today. Took all their chances.

We have a worrying tendency to fade in the last 10min.

Very true - AB's know how to turn it on in the last 10 whereas we tend to fade at precisely the same time.

Goddamit, really thought we were in with a chance today.

:mad:

We lost but I am definitely feeling more confident for the world cup. Kriel and De Allande look awesome. Pollard made too many errors. Willie needs to polish his game.

Our front row were awesome again.

Interesting discussion just now about the call for uncontested scrums. Who made the call in the Springbok camp?
