Springboks v All Blacks

[Crucial]

Im no big fan of watching scrums but this trend to play on after a scrum has been demolished is favorable to weak scrums

This has been a great game so far. Boks have really turned up to play and some brutal defence from both teams.

Certainly the best game that we've been involved in in this Rugby Championship and maybe for a couple of years.

Fuck the Bokke aren't playing tiddlywinks aye? The collisions have been absolutely brutal, Aussies and Argies would have both dropped out of this game after three and a half minutes.

[Stargazer]

BB not coming back, despite passing his HIA.

Edit: apparently they weren't convinced BB was really okay.

[Stargazer]

Could see that try against the post coming. Well done Cronje. 8 all with the kick to come. Come on black!!

[Crucial]

Probably lucky they scored actually. I was picturing Garces looking for a second penalty and a card

[Bones]

Crotty has been huge as a huge thing on defence.

[Stargazer]

Complete AB frontrow replaced now.

[Toddy]

The bok hooker was a monster in that phase of play.

Williams pushing wide from the ruck before any other defence could come across.

[Stargazer]

Todd has replaced Cane.

[JustAnotherFan]

This is a tense one. At least the Boks finally substituted Dreyer at #3.

[Kruse]

@Stargazer that must mean nearly entire bench emptied already?
I'm starting to feel super nervous about this game.

[Toddy]

Sh*t grubber from Sops. Hands over possession when we were building pressure.

Yes, only PT and TKB left on the bench.

[JustAnotherFan]

Handre Pollard finally gets some more time

[Toddy]

Nicely held up by the Boks. The AB's had a chance to do that a few phases before but Crotty just stood there and watched Ioane rather than go in and help.

[Stargazer]

Ioane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Intercept try!

[Wairau]

Yyyyeeeessss!
Orgasmic release of pressure haha

[Stargazer]

TKB on for Smith, who was a bit disappointing today.

[JustAnotherFan]

This always happens against the run of play

[African Monkey]

Malcolm Marx has been a real menace today.
