Springboks vs All Blacks I
-
Difficult to watch with a Third Div ref.
Will grudgingly admit they ground us down, in the 2nd half, but made easy.
I'd not get too cocky if I was a Jaap.

On the good side, we clearly have a team that can win against S Africa.

NZ blew that
Dumb dumb rugby
Ball should have been kicked dead at around 77 mins to get Ofa back on the pitch
NZ played with 14 for the last 3 minutes when they didn't need to
Yes Brace was rubbish but NZ have themselves to blame

The ref sucked but the ABs got smoked in the last 15-20 minutes is the uncomfortable truth
Yes, not converting from that 5 m lineout was a big miss.
A good test match where unfortunately the ref will be the big talking point.
Clarke better have been injured as that was a terrible sub otherwise.

Themselves plus Brace and the TMO. NZ should have won despite the refereeing, but with a good ref they probably still would have won.

So if Argentina beat Oz tonight, we'll be third in the table.
When did that last happen?

Rubbish final ten from the All Blacks. Once again some of the experienced hands with the bigger brain explosions.
Referee is Irish, so no surprises there.
The chip and chase shite has to stop

No they selected the players who played like Corinthians keeping the ball alive when they should have pinged the Boks back well inside their own half and finished the match with 15 players

Knock on only then advantage over after one phase when you've made no ground. Brace is paid off
And here’s me thinking that we now have neutral refs when we play in SA🤦♂️
Only if they don't bleed green.

I don't think that was the major problem.

Jordie should have been kicking from half way like Sasha was.
Now we're starting to get it

Progress. We didn't go to shit until the 70th minute - despite the crap refereeing
Yeah, overall we played very well albeit making too many errors.
I thought we probably blew it when we fucked up 2 opportunities in their 22 around the 65 minute mark. That was the winning of the game if we took points then.
The ref was very harsh on us but it is not a surprise really when you play in a cauldron such as Ellis park.
Pissed off we disnt win as it was their for the taking but we have shown enough to suggest we are a decent side and can go toe to toe with this ‘generational’ Bok side (I always knew we would)

Mike. I normally love your posts. You seem like a decent skin.
We got rode by Brace. Sans lube.
