The problem is still too much rocks and diamonds. Mixing clever stuff with dumb shit.

Another Bok down. Boks have 6-2 or 5-3?
This looks suspicious.
Bench must be very short now

Keep an eye on this.
They are chancers.

What can they do?

Shocking defensive read from Carter
Almost looked like Reece

Final passes coach killers
Sloppy as, second week in a row. Happens when you make wholesale changes

Ref and his team not good.
Missing loads of obvious shit from both sides

At least hes not favouring either team. But he is definitely shit.
Cracking first half of rugby. Bokke are really testing us in defence. Luckily for the scoreboard they all seem to have tits for hands.

The Boks have been infringing and getting away with it? I haven’t seen you comment on those 
Positive first half from the backs apart from Proctor’s interception. Needs to be better.
Otherwise looking a lot more fluid.

Both sides living offside
Will take that.
Our backline looking to start to click.
Should be up by more.
FFS what was with that lineout option at 35mins. Throw to 2 and maul. It was a car crash in slow motion.
Teams have opposite problem.
Boks, brilliant game plan, but execution letting them down.
Blacks, no game plan, but execution pretty good.
Both have one clear counter to the above. Kolbe try, and AB overthrown lineout on attack.
There’s something about Beauden and McKenzie. Play 10-15mins of good high quality rugby, then they use that as an excuse to justify absolute dogshite decisions.
Springboks making this tough, especially for our backrow and half back. Their rush defence is extremely well drilled.
I still think we'll win, but I'm a bit worried about this ref.

A quick look on X and the SA rugby fans are spewing at ABs getting away with everything at breakdown, scrum time, line out, ref being biased and poor Springboks aren’t getting the benefit of being the angels that they are. Serious victim complex.

It's Ike we don't want to maul anymore after Argentina 1, when that was what won us that test.

scrum doing ok clearing it quick, but gee, bit of a worry
Yeah, second half could get nasty
