Not sure what the Boks can do better. Except not kick for 50/50 options quite so often. Hold the ball for some 60/40s maybe.
Boks will want to cut down on the penalties (and yellow card) and yes, improve balance on kick v run. But only in the last 20 or so. Up to then, more of the same….

I generally come to TSF to discuss rugby, not to get into arguments. I don't rate Reiko at centre, because he is a great winger wasted as a midfielder. But I don't get involved in that discussion here though, because it just leads to flame wars. And there weren't a lot of options again. I have also stayed out of the Akira Ioane discussions.
I doubt I'm the only one here who doesn't express a contrary opinion because it isn't worth taking on the white knighters. That shouldn't be taken as endorsement.The less people such as your good self post, the more this turns into a partisan echo chamber, filled with the ignorant who hold dissenting opinions to me. 😉

Malherbe is a big loss for the SA team. Koch is probably an even better scrummager but he is - for reasons unknown to me (racial quotas ?) - always kept on the bench. Is Nyakane a reliable THP ? The ABs should win the scrum battle till Kitshoff and Koch enter the pitch.

@machpants That's a pretty daft policy. Just name it at the same time each week if the game is on the same day!

I could be wrong but that's what it looked like. I agree, stupid

With stadium capacity now reduced to 75% in QLD due to restrictions announced today there might be a few people who cannot attend this.
Hopefully the SA medical staff so the players have no choice but to play on...
