The way we were passing... I fucking knew an intercept was coming.

Brilliant chase by Jordie

Bugger.

Shame about the intercept but the interplay looked very good until that point. Just a big play from a big player.

Try assist for Proctor....

Proctor didn’t draw his man

Easy to say now, but in future we need to take a few to the line

The ref missing a Christie knock on cost the ABs 7 points there.

A Kolbe special.

*A Proctor Special

Lovely kick by DMac

ABs playing well, despite the intercept, looking the better of the two sides.

Probably a fair reflection of the game so far, but a shame as we just looked like we were starting to wind up

Christie's cunning plan to save the ABs 7 points.....

Excellent kick from DMac, he's looked good at the back

Good grubber into space by DMac and chase by Proctor.

Beauden hates an overlap.

Backline looking far more fluid than I can remember

Head clash on Ardie?

@ACT-Crusader absorbing

Double pivot can work!

Ardie cop a shoulder to head in that passage?

That rule doesn’t apply to ABs. Didn’t you know?

The ref is having a shocker.

Increbily still night here in Wellington in terms of wind for once

2 failed HIA’s for tacklers….

Libbok on for the rest of the game. No safety net on the bench.

SA resorting to a midfield bomb. Are they losing confidence in tonyball?

We’re starting to lose the high ball contest

Hotham gone surely?

No

SA well on top in that contest

Need to try something else

Our wingers aren't big enough to combat the springboks tall timber eh

@canefan said in All Blacks vs Springboks II:

They said he's failed HIA

Hopefully the big saffa forwards will get gassed with all this running.

The Boks are going to be knackered in the second half.

@Darth-Sader starting, how many weeks now?

That will change when Ruben Love comes on. They should have started him.

Boks really pushing the offload like we haven’t seen since Ruan Pinnear was running around.

SA hands letting them down at crucial times

Loving these long clearances
