Thst Coles chap added some spark when he came on.
Lots and lots and lots of work to do...

Did we hit the most boundaries?
joke was made earlier. Uppercut yourself immediately.

@KiwiMurph He isn't going to defend like Bridge did at the end.

Since when was reading or considering the view of others a prerequisite for posting on TSF?

How good was Coles though!
Basically the canes were the only reason we didn't lose

Once again Barrett’s boot has cost us a test against the Boks........
Of course we'll just forget the fact that he set up the one and only try.
His kicking is shart though. How does he usually kick in Japan? He's usually solid in the NH.

@KiwiMurph I thought Bridge was poor on defence in that last try. He needed to use his voice and call numbers over but didn't. Rieko was poor but he's still ahead of Bridge.

I can't fault that as a valid retort.

Yeah, how the f did that midget have all that space?

@KiwiMurph said in TRC: The All Blacks against the Springboks (version 98):
Rieko's position is under serious threat from Bridge.
Rieko offers zero kicking game so his value in this sort of a game is fuck all.
Yeah, but, I'm not convinced Ben Smith has the pace to play wing anymore. Then Rieko plays by default as we don't have any other wings.
Our back three is the weakest it has been in a very long time.
-
As others have said, a few players - Read, Franks and possibly Ben Smith - look past it. We still have no answer to the rush defence. BB’s boot lets us down in key matches. Our attack coach (and heir apparent to Hansen) appears clueless. We still lack a decent blindside. But the most depressing thing is the possible loss of Retallick for the WC.

They're not competing for a spot. Rieko is a lock-in.
