All Blacks vs Springboks I

I just hoping they put it all down to some sort of epic clash, they were shit and predictable and we still only just won…which means we were far from good

We didn't play well, but we won. Playing badly and winning happens with good teams.
I am happy enough.
That Smit 100th test we were poor for most of that match and then we pulled one out of the bag at the death when a Bok player (Smit) fell of a tackle.
I remember well. Though in that game SA played very well for 60 minutes. We came back from a long way behind.
At the end of the day, playing badly and still winning is more of an All Black trait than many of us would like to admit.

Ardie really doesn't look well and didn't all game. I reckon it wasn't just LJ who got the bug this week.
Suzy strikes again
Reminds me more of against England in 2012.

So it's official - South Africa are the dumbest side to ever play rugby.
How you gunna kick the ball straight to Barrett in mid-field when you are leading by a point with a few minutes to go? They are trolling everyone, surely?
Very sad for their playmakers to turn into stoppagemakers.
I'd argue that is not Bok DNA, that is cowardice.It is not the Bok way. They are a disgrace playing like that

The bomb worked a treat against Bridge so they kept it going. Jordie was just sprinting around like a madman in the end trying to take them all.

Akira worst game this year. Only about 10 quality minutes.
So many players choked. Havili awful. Perenara and BB terrible. Retallick penalties early. Savea missing.
BB didn't run on to the ball ever. Injured?
I expect a brutal debrief and a better performance by us next game

The thing is, they have halftime to change the gameplan if they can't do it on the field, I worry this coaching team is very slow to react and choose plan B.

Other than Jordie they all looked off colour. It was weird. It was a miracle if they managed to string 3 phases today.

Yup. Just like 2019

Obviously the Jacobsen late out disrupted the whole team 😃
Must be it!
