I think we got too cocky with the luxury of experimenting too much and getting results. This result will balance the force again.

Exactly what I'm thinking. If you are always on top everyone comes for you and you might lose sight on things evolving around or beneath you.

This week a good regroup session and get back on the horse.
 
From 22-0 to 22-38. Now that is comedy 😂
It was so ridiculous. I still can't believe the crumbling in our game. Yes we made many mistakes resulting in penalties but it's like they just started to figure out the defense and attack so well. Then again, our backline attack was so predictable. Must've been very easy to mark your opponent.
 
Line-outs. Don't know what going on. Both teams struggled. Equally shít.

This fell apart with the boks worst backline performance since that horrible all black lost.

9 Grant Williams failed to contol the game. Excellent 20min really fast then gassed his own team.

10. Libbok average/bad game. He did nothing.

Esterheizen is over rated. I never thought I would say this but we really missed DDA.

Jesse probably his best game attacking yet. Looked really sharp and fast, but then he slipped 2 tackles that let to tries.

Van der merwe. Does not belong near a Springbok C team. Got out sprinted by Aussie forwards few times. He is slow and lazy.

Arendse. Solid enough as always. Probably our best back.

Fasi and galant. Both equally ****.

Forwards did okay. Few times if they get a break they run away from support and Ausies get a turnover.

Eben is great but not a captain.
I missed why Syia needed to go off early he had a great game
 
Its always funny when the doffest muppet comes out to give his uneducated opinion.
 
That backline was actually performing great with Manie there. They were constantly in the Aus 22. The problem was we messed up there the whole time when we should have scored and ended the contest.
PSDT, Siya, Eben and Marx was good in forwards. Backline Just Manie and Arendse. Williams was OK
Our biggest problem is those two centres. Pretty average on attack but poor on defence.
We need the the best centre in world rugby for the last 5+ years. De Allende.

But life goes on, nothing worth crying about. If you sad now, just think how you going to feel tomorrow morning at 6am. Get the tissues ready, I love Dricus, but I think he is also coming back to earth a bit.
 
Watched a bit of Forever Sports channel on Youtube live afterwards, guy said Rassie ripped a pearler on live press conference.

Couldn't find it live. Will look for it later.

SuperSport didn't have a studio panel afterwards. That how it works now, only on-field?:

He did miss that tackle resulting in a try. Got wrong footed though. Otherwise, I agree. Our backline reminds me of the days before Rassie, primary school passing all the way to the sideline. Fasi was horrible. Esterhuizen was one of the better players on the day imho- he got over the advantage line a few times plus he had a try
