Boks fans delirious about getting lucky. The disallowed try is the difference.

Possibly an incorrect call too.

Expected the Boks to give Oz a real mullering after last week but really impressed with the Oz performance.

Either the Boks are weak or the Bledisloe will be in serious danger this year.

Toughest Aussie team for a long long time

Without sounding like a sour grape-ist, the Boks have been living a charmed life for ages.

Robbed England in semi final. Robbed us in the final.

They have been getting the rub of the green with calls for years.

It was the correct call. Just went back and had another look. It went forward separately off of both Kellaway's hands

@Victor-Meldrew Or a bit of both?

More than likely and hard to tell until we play either of them. But Oz have been really impressive since Lions 2, so I'm going with option 2.

Either way it's good to see Oz on the up and a tight Bledisloe would be a great watch.

Bledisloe is going to be epic.

With a win in SA, and playing Argentina at home (very realistic 2 wins - this will be the real indicator, if they can put the Argies away).
The Wallabies could walk away with both Rugby Championship and the Bledisloe.

Wallabies will have some walking wounded after that

@Victor-Meldrew Yes, they’re playing with real self-belief despite an horrific run with injuries. There’s a never-say-die element to their play and they have some real game-breakers in the likes of Valetini, Ikitau and Jorgensen

These 2 games feel like a watershed moment for this Bok side and i think this will convince Rassie to accelerate some changing of the guard.

He may give those players who have won RWCs a chance to win at Eden Park (most havent actually played there strangely enough!) but I think after that he is focussed on building a side for RWC27.

A really tight RC would be great. Seems to happen far more in the 6N's and has made that tournament a bit more epic,

Impressed with the way they handle pressure too. There's a real togetherness with this crop of players.

Boks underwhelming but they know how to see themselves home in the last fifteen minutes of a tight one.

Another highly impressive Wallabies performance. Take a bow, Joe Schmidt.

Not to mean thin French quarter which BOK completely screwed up.

By Bled the Wobbly squad will be weakened by quite a few required to play NH club rugby.
