That bok defence though. That was something else. For 80 mins too. Truly didn’t think they had the fortitude to do that
Whitley with 65 minutes in his legs running down TJP, with only about 5 mins in his, was quite a telling image of the match.
Wasn't a pivotal moment as nz eventually scored from that field position, but a moment.

Good gutsy performance from the Boks, but we gifted them two tries - having switched off after the first two of our own. Throw in Barrett’s atrocious kicking and it looked like the necessary wake-up call. In retrospect, Hansen would have been better starting Mo’unga in this match and played a more Crusaders-style than a Hurricanes one. At least he would have kicked the goals.
Only if it had been Mo'unga at 10, with BB at fullback instead of Jordie.
Edited to add that it probably would have been a bit much to throw Mo'unga in this game after only 1 start.

Yeah absolutely re Goodhue. He adds the punch that ALB just can't from centre (I think ALB is a 12 all day). Crotty was ok. ALB was persona non grata.
I think ALB was better than Crotty (who offered nothing IMO), just overshadowed his decent game with that silly and unnecessary intercept to that dwarf

The only positive from Crotty was that he didn't go off injured

Judging on tonight's game I would count that as a negative
ALB & Goodhue worked a lot better -

Beaudem Barrett fucking sucks
And so do his deadshit brothers

Seriously disappointed with Barretts B and J tonight. BB's kicking was fucking awful, even worse considering he was on his home ground, and several of those kicks were an international goalkicker's bread and butter. JB was a bit woeful at the back, and that shockingly bad quick throw in should give him nightmares for a week.
The Boks played well, but fuck man, we gifted them points. And flushed away our own.
