That's Rugby, folks.

Great play by the Boks!

Ireland 0 Boks 5.

Forward pass….

See, why can't we play like tbat good front foot ball, the pack steam rollering over everything that stands and support players always on the shoulder

Great break by James Lowe.
Breathless start.

Sasha could be in trouble

TMO review coming

YC incoming?

Not sure who these commentators are, but they are at their cheerleading best

It's not that bad IMO

I'm listening on Radio Ulster. Balanced and impartial they are not.

6mins before we get first TMO

Penalty, no YC is my call.

Red Card for me, horrendous tackling "technique"

And the refs. Good call.

Ireland go for the corner.

Noisy Dublin crowd. Many of who will have been in the pub for most of the afternoon.

Very good goal line defence by the Boks. I hope the ABs are taking notes.

Never looked rattled SA during that defensive effort

Rugby in 2025.

Great atmosphere.

Surely not? Springboks dropped two high balls.

But they are the bestest ever…

gawd the Irish players appeal a lot

And crowd.

Its like a Punch and Judy show.

As a traditionalist, love the Oirish changing their jersey.

Ireland go for goal.

He's hit the posts.

Ireland 0 Boks 5. 20 minutes gone.

Tadgh Beirne goes over, but it's going to the TMO because of a Ryan clear out that looked a bit dodgy.

This ref is pretty solid. But the fact he has so much influence further highlights everything that is wrong with the game.

More TMO

Dumb by Ryan

That's going to be ruled out and perhaps a YC.

Pissed Irish crowd not happy.

James Ryan is a fucking idiot

YC for Ryan. Illegal clear out that made contact with the head. Going for a RC review.

Should be a 20-minute Red IMHO.

YC
As much as i hate them .. you can't blame anyone but Ryan ... that was dumb

Prendergast unconvincing at 10. Fluffing kicks. Looking unsettled.

Poor kicking by Ireland after Boks error

Good game. Much more entertaining than Wales-NZ.

Some of Ireland's kicking is really poor.

Bok try number 2. Venter in.

But the TMO is looking at it for a forward pass.

Ruled out. No try.
