Cody could be worth the 3rd vote, set up Jordan and had a few good runs. Probably should make my vote now but I'll wait a day just to see if I'm idiotic enough to watch a replay.

Taylor is a decent shout for setting up the try. Unfortunately, the lineout was poor and that is his corr role.

BBR was getting beaten to the jump so he called Blackadder all night,Not Taylors fault bad calls by BBR he lost confidence That he could secure his jump.

I think I heard him, but in all reality what can he actually do about it? Is he going to say to Pierce, “he’s faking”. Sure it was taking the proverbial, but that is a WR problem not an on field captain problem.

Point at the pattern, not the incident. TJP talked more to the ref than Ardie did, about Boks not making the ball available after penalties

[Chris]

I don’t see how Tupaea gets votes, on the back of one turnover and 9 minutes on the field,he also missed 2 straight forward tackles.

@nzzp The worst of his decisions were not taking the 3 points when they were on offer.

Fair point, but he probably didn't think his team could bugger up so many try-scoring opportunities. If one had come off there would have been a 2 score lead and a different game. Changed tack at the right time, though.

That's test rugby. And that's the boks. Take the points on offer. You have to bury them one spadeful at a time

[canefan]

If we take those points the pressure goes up as they are forced to chase the game. Which may have made it easier for us in the end

[No Quarter]

I had SB as a pretty clear 3rd. Not a high bar admittedly but he did a lot of work in the tight, strong with ball in hand, and unlike everyone else didn't drop the ball 20 times.

[ARHS]

Jordie and Blackadder are easy. Has to be one of the bench after that. I go for Weber for what he added but could have been Tupaea or Taukeiaho. What happened to our lineout tonite?

Gut feel is Jordie, Ethan and Ardie.

My votes. Although I had Ardie in front of Blackadder.

[Bones]

Just Jordie.

Kwagga Smith my MOTM.

Jordie for the winning kick, but he struggled under the high ball

Over Kolisi?

Jordie did better than Bridge!

I'm pretty sure we weren't watching the same game....

[Old Samurai Jack]

Jordie, Blackadder and Scott! SB played a good game!

[sparky]

Jordie, Will Jordan and Ardie Savea. Blackadder all good.

[BerniesCorner]

@oompb Are you watching AB v SA 2021, just checking

[BerniesCorner]

Blackadder is the new McCaw

Will Jordan

He was far from good. What is it about this guy that he gets a free pass? He was the worst winger on the pitch.

[Frye]

J Barrett, E Blackadder, S Barrett

[sparky]

@bones Got my vote for this. Great timing of the run and acceleration.

[Bones]

@sparky you even voted for him? For doing what you'd expect of a quality wing in one moment of the game? That's pretty ridiculous.
