Apparently we kicked 28 contestables and got the ball back 2 times.
Boks kicked 34 times to get the ball back 6
You'd wonder why teams do it so much with that rate of return.
Not every kick is contestable
The stat provided was contestable kicks.

Great, classy answer

From this clip all TJ appears to say to the ref is "whats that"....
No different really from jackalers shouting "Sir Sir Sir" "no release" calling for a penalty.
Dont mind him pinging it, but expect to see it every time.
That was a minimum 3 points for us that ended up a pen the other way.

@Jet He called it a sledge so I presume the ref was struggling with TJ's accent and thought that he was calling one of the Springboks a twat.
Brace to TJ
‘I’m going to give you a clear message - insult me like that and you leave the field”

I find it extremely hard to believe Perenara insulted him. I guess we should've known from that point.

He either did which wasn’t picked up on Mix or Brace misheard him.
I find it hard to believe as well

Dollars to donuts it was a mishearing and he couldn't back down once he'd set his stall.

Sad in a way.

Nick Bishop felt Boks having three locks on at end (Nortje, PSDT and Eben) was very important for late maul tries: https://www.rugbypass.com/plus/rassie-erasmus-the-ultimate-high-stakes-gambler-goes-all-in-and-wins-big-again/

@pakman thinking back we had Jerome K and Kieran Read in our loose forwards mix who were able to mix it with big boys. Now it’s Ardie and Ethan Blackadder. I got no doubts Ardie is an explosive power athlete, it just feels like we lack balance and power in that loose forward mix. I guess this is a broken record.

@pakman this is 3 years ago, I would think he’s still capable of this when given some room. -
Oh to bring him on at 60 this Saturday!

@pakman possibly. But the ABs were getting pumped all day at the maul. They gave up penalties on the first three mauls and, from memory, 5/8 total bok mauls.
Your bench forwards largely got manhandled all over the rest of the park too.
Bj Dickson who started at blindside also happens to be a lock/blindside like Pstd so I wouldn’t read too much into that theory
