    Not sure why the Boks decided to play touch footy instead of just bashing us.

    Next week is going to be wayyyyy different

      Great thing for the Wobs is even if they are demolished next week, the tour will always be considered a strong success and this particular game will be remembed for pleny of years to come.

        Sean Maloney sounding like he's ejaculating.

        Big Seanny is an absolute top bloke and an absolute Rugby nuffy.

        He's played various levels in Sydney and knows the landscape here very well - the good, bad, and ugly.

        He's a champion for the game here and his love of the game is unparalleled.

        Yeah don't mind him personally. Gets excited in the commentary box during games, nothing wrong with that.

          The emphasis they're going to take to the breakdown suggests it will be brutal and TMO interjections could be numerous.

            Aren't they part of the four teams they could pick that could beat anybody?

            So much unbeatable depth.

              I wasn’t able to watch yesterday but caught the score. Now 20 mins into the game and trying to come up with a movie reference or some kind of sports comparison to reflect on how it turns out.

              Boks fans dancing in the stands right now.

              Update: Mexican wave at 23:30.

                Only watched the highlights but just saw a tweet, did the Boks really do the midfield lineout with 8 mins to go whilst 11 points behind?! 😂😂😂😂

                  Once they got early success maybe they just fell in love with high tempo rugby, and couldn't revert back to plan A when it started going sideways?

                    I've only seen the highlights but bloody hell what a start for SA and what a bloody turnaround from Aus.

                    2 points of surprise for me:-

                    1. I thought Nic White had retired?
                    2. The clear out by Nche in the lead up to the first try had echoes of Morgan's clear out but nothing mentioned/whined about?

                          Surely one of those Aussie back 3 have some kiwi heritage?

                          What a joy to see them running in space like that.

                          Cracking game, I thought SA would win by 60 after 10 mins. The mental game to stay in that contest was incredible.

                          I think T2 will be really tight. These Aussies have belief now.

                            The Bok props don't look particularly mobile to me.

                                      I watched the replay on Stan this morning

                                      After 10mins I’d heard the names White and Hooper and JOC, and I had to wonder if I’d accidentally put on a replay of a game from 10 years ago!

                                        Not sure why the Boks decided to play touch footy instead of just bashing us.

                                        Next week is going to be wayyyyy different

                                        Once they got early success maybe they just fell in love with high tempo rugby, and couldn't revert back to plan A when it started going sideways?

                                        Which shows that Etzebeth is a shit captain, and Libbok is a shit flyhalf.

                                          And I realise all the fucking Boklodytes will want to shove those words down my throat when they win next week, but the point stands: like Lions Test 2, you gave up a handy lead and dominant position, and those 2 were responsible, being in charge at the time
