It's a draw. 16 all.

Well, it's better than a loss, I guess.

Away draw, better for SA for me.

The decision to go for the 3 and not the lineout was wrong in hindsight.

Piss off. We would have lost.

[gt12]

I have no idea what the AB selectors will do anymore, but that’s a good game for SA.

They’ll rightly not be afraid of us at the WC.

How many players are past it or just not good enough?

[kiwiinmelb]

They were better in the first half and we got the points ,

We were better in the second and they got the points, weird game

Solid, exciting test match with a deserved result.

Anyone calling these TRC matches friendlies hasn't got the first fucking clue about rugby.

Hahahaha

@Kirwan no one really deserved to win tbf.

Boy, Fozzie got some work to do if he expects to have a job next year...

Should of had Richie kicking the goals.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

I have a cat now and I will kick it.

Probably a fair reflection on the overall game. Should have won it though.

Controversial opinion. Ardie should be 8 instead of Read. Not going to happen obviously but he was very ordinary.

[African Monkey]

Meh. Didn't deserve to win that. Very poor defence at the end giving Colby the sideline there. He's shown all night how quick he is.

[Tim]

@MiketheSnow Indeed!

[Wally]

Read and B Smith looking a bit older and slower.
R Ioane continuing his Blues form.

Another Frizell article on the way?

[edit] oops, that was Fafita

[hydro11]

All we had to do to win was have our best goal kicker, kicking goals from the start.

It was a Fifita one.

[Darren]

@Rancid-Schnitzel
Not controversial at all. Year too far for Read and Savea is in some form right now. Unfortunately I doubt it will happen.

[Stag]

Once again Barrett’s boot has cost us a test against the Boks........

[Machpants]

ABs were utter toss, and the boks only just drew. But (edit) unless our attack improves, is all over rover. What's our try rate recently? Can't be good

[Yeetyaah]

Draw works for me. We're focused on the world cup and the last 2 times we've won the RWC, we didn't win TRC. Shit selections tbh. SBW, Todd, starting front row were shit. Mo'unga average. As long as we keep the Bledisloe I couldn't care less about TRC.

[Tim]

Lost our best forward, Barrett is our only ten, no six, and three of our senior leaders are has-beens.

Want to see more of ALB.

He should never even have got this job on his Chiefs form. He’s a teflon coated lock-in for 2020 unfortunately.
