That last penalty was annoying, Marx never releases ST just wrapped him up so he couldn't move without really making a genuine play at the ball. We needed a way better clean out though.
His legs were only 1.5m behind his arms. Clearly supporting his bodyweight.

Well I think we can safely say at half time that there has been no discernible change in way the ABs are playing. But the building blocks are in place and it will all click one day. Honest.
Maul and lineout fine.
If Boks going to rush up at 10/12, how about we drive back in close to ruck?

We're not doing that badly out there. Our attack is still a bit disjointed but the forwards are working very hard despite the usual criticism's.

Will Jordan will have fresh legs for the second half.
Defence has been much better.
I wouldn't be surprised if he snaps a hammy from being so cold.

You know - we are playing average, we've not had the rub of the ref's calls, and yet we're only down 7. I'll take that.
A different TH and the Boks would’ve had a lot less ball
Tight five still not clearing out as much as I’d like. Seems there still seems to be a moment of indecision before hitting a ruck or getting into position for the next phase. It slows everything down
Hopefully we smash around the fringes straight after halftime

i can see some of the attack structure and it’s better, just our execution is off.
Even when we’ve had good ball both Smith and Beaudie have been careless.

A lot of play has broken down around smith and Barrett.

Reiko and Caleb caught watching in poor positions in that high kick that led to the try. I thought it was a knock on though.

Yeah I'm surprised they didn't check to make sure SA player didn't touch it

Some better stuff at set piece and defence. On attack however I’m confused and the players also look confused. A number of times with fast ball we lacked guys in right position or who seemed surprised to receive it. We look good when running hard close to Ruck, we seem to get over advantage line. Too often we get to shape and look to shift making us easy prey for rush. I think that’s difference between us and others - they go wide only when it’s a chance, we just go as a matter of fact. The one time we did create space Havilli drops it! Tough old game. As Like to see Clarke n Jordan off wings looking for work.
