Second half.
Jordie secures the kickoff. Good run by Sititi gets us outside the 22. McKenzie doesn't want the ball so narrows the available angle by passing to Jordie who punts downfield.
de Allende gets tackled by Vaa'i whose locking partner is straight over the ball and wins a penalty. McKenzie goes for a kick 56m out. Hits it wide and short.
South Africa comes out of the change shed with an entirely different game. Passing, running and finding space. All Blacks scrambling in defence. Less than five minutes of play and South Africa replace a winger and hooker.
South Africa batter away at the line and Etzebeth is clearly short but advantage for Williams for being offside. South Africa try again from a maul formed off a lineout. All Blacks stop this one from moving forward, Marx goes off the back and is tackled immediately by Taylor. Cane comes in for a Kwagga style turnover but Carley says that's only permissible for players wearing green despite Cane leaving it as soon as he went off his feet.
South Africa try again and again their maul goes nowhere but a series of hitups around the corner results in South African Jesus doing enough between Cane and Ioane to stretch out and place the ball over the line. South Africa take the lead 10 - 9 with a successful conversion and TJP comes onto the field because quite clearly this has all been Ratima's fault.
To make room for ALB (why?), Ioane is moved to the wing. Ioane makes ground when someone finally passes him the ball and Jordie immediately gives away a penalty by flying into the ruck, going off his feet and cleaning out only himself. For some reason he looks mystified.
Malherbe, Weise and Pollard are tired, so they get a rest.
Contestable kick put up by South Africa and Jordan makes a reappearance only to not catch the ball. South Africa with a territorial gain. An attempted cross kick is charged down so the least worst starting wing (according to the All Black coaching staff) in Reece decides to grab the ball despite being clearly offside. South Africa with a penalty 40m out and Feinberg-Mngomezulu kicks it. Score widens to 13 - 9 in the 55th minute.
McKenzie again full of indecision, hands Jordie a hospital pass and South African Jesus obliges.
Lomax with an excellent turnover. Williams looks exhausted. ~30m out from South Africa's line and ~12 metres in from touch, Jordie manages to secure a lineout 20m out. Why is he kicking with that sort of accuracy? Some attacks that can't find space, we go back for a ruck penalty and Scott points to the posts. McKenzie kicks and the score narrows to a point. 13 - 12
20 minutes left and Beaudy comes on to replace Will Jordan who has done precisely fuck all as fullback. Jacobson comes on for Sititi which is an inspired substitution since he was doing more than Ardie...
le Roux is awarded a yellow card for a failed intercept as the All Blacks put together probably the best backline effort of the match so far. McKenzie hits the post, Jordie regathers and TJP throws a shitter of a pass to no one.
Hot on attack Scott decides a falcon is better than catching the ball and South Africa are relieved of pressure.
At some point Williams the halfback was replaced by homeless Sideshow Bob.
Feinberg-Mngomezulu misses a penalty attempt from halfway. 22 dropout and Elrigh Louw gets sat on his arse by Codie with some help from Jacobson. Vaa'i is immediately over the ball despite three South African forwards trying to clean him out.
Ardie takes the lineout and inaccuracy in setting up the maul results in South African scrum. Another chance goes missing.
Ofa's on for Williams. Lomax gets penalised despite Steenekamp pulling down and folding inwards at the scrum. South Africa moving slightly forwards so Carley blows that way. South Africa kick for touch and Vaa'i steals the lineout.
Steenekamp too slow to roll away and McKenzie with an opportunity 47m out and directly in front. Fucks it.
Lomax gets a soft yellow card as Kolbe runs into his shoulder and ridiculously is on referral whether it should be a red card. A blot on his copybook in an otherwise fine game as he didn't need to shift his weight which is all Carley needed to penalise him.
South Africa take the lineout maul option and again it's well repulsed by the Men in Black. Marx illegally changes his bind at the base, detaching and then reattaching, catches Reece napping and dives into the corner. Try awarded. Conversion is wide. Five minutes left and the score is 18 - 12
Kick off and a double knock on results in a Bok scrum. Feinberg-Mngomezulu waltzes between TJP and McKenzie, kicks ahead but the ball goes out inside NZ's 22. Camera pans to South African Jesus who has been replaced. Must've broken his other cheekbone.
Lineout won, TJP passes to McKenzie who passes to Ardie who decides it's best if he fights getting to ground so South Africa get more time to set up their defence. After Louw slows the ball down enough TJP gets to pass to McKenzie who
does something rather quite brilliantputs up a shit bomb which comes down on our 22 and South Africa have possession with less than four minutes left.Carley warns TJP that if he keeps talking he'll be sent from the field. Seems he didn't learn a fucking thing from the review of last week's effort.
A minute to go 70 metres and there is absolutely no organisation in play. One final chance with a penalty, the All Blacks go for the lineout. South Africa win it, boot it into row Z and that's the game.
So two weeks in a row the All Blacks are leading at halftime and lose. Vaa'i had a stormer of a game ably assisted by Taylor. Cane tackled and won a turnover. Sititi grew into the game. Ardie needs to be replaced because if he's not giving away penalties trying too hard, he's a handbrake. TJP needs to be told he can go to Japan early. McKenzie is worse than a waste of space - he provides no direction and puts others under pressure. Jordie is rocks and cubic zirconias. Jordan was invisible. Both replacement wings were poor.
Coaching Jesus has now lost two in a row to South Africa and failed to win the Rugby Championship. His selections and gameplans are mystifyingly bad. As shit as the Wallabies played this morning, the Bledisloe is in a precarious position. We've been sold a pup and the emperor has no clothes.
Could have gone either way. Small margins. Test footy.

I am not overly worried we lost TBH.
We are not a bad team, we're just up against a team right at the top of their game and on top of the world.
Get all that but that was never an acceptable attitude in the past , we have become the vanilla allblacks,
Yeah I get that too. However we had a run against all comers including the Boks for saying 12 years that was sensational (2004-2016). I imagine the Boks fans would have been distraught they could barely beat us during that period.
I think we'll get there again, just not this year.
What pisses me off is substandard performances like game 1 v Pumas.

That ref is fucking hopeless, but he's no part of the reason for the loss. He was far better than last time we had him (Twickenham?) and a million times better than in whichever game it was at the WC where he made a fucking disgrace of himself.
There was plenty of hopeless on the field, the ref wasn’t part of that party
I thought the ref was good, particularly when I took my bias hat off.

I can agree on that if we can agree the same on BB. Except for the can play on the wing bit.
