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.
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.
Chickens. Roost. Etc
Hilarious.

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.

The Wallabies could walk away with both Rugby Championship and the Bledisloe.
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,

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

No it wouldn't. The All Blacks beating everyone by 50+ points would be great.

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

Boks fans delirious about getting lucky. The disallowed try is the difference.
Possibly an incorrect call too.
It was the correct call. Just went back and had another look. It went forward separately off of both Kellaway's hands
My slow mo isn’t good enough to isolate that. TV pictures inconclusive. -

By Bled the Wobbly squad will be weakened by quite a few required to play NH club rugby.
Big challenge this TRC, could be making of this AB side if they can win it and retain the Bledisloe.

Hilarious.
Genuinely not on a windup.
Water carriers and physios on pitch at inopportune moments. Tactical injuries.
Disingenuous use of the HIA protocols. Youtube diatribes about referees and calls.
Yellows where opponents get reds.A lot of bounce of the ball games where they were very lucky to get the rub.
RWC 2023 was barely believable from 1/4's onwards.Playing the race card by stealth in Lions tour saying Kolisi didnt get same respect from refs as opposition captains, which helped turn the series.
I could go on.
Rassie is a great coach and id go into the trenches with/for him.
But they havnt revolutionised the game or anything. It has been more skullduggery than innovation.

Just watched the replay ..
Really noticed this game was slowed down a lot more at anu stoppage than last weeks - I had to skip fwd a lot more today.
Tate McDermont was pretty poor - shame White had to go so early
Malcolm Marx is every bit a whinger
Kwagga Smith must have conceded the most penalties for an individual in this game.
Valetini is bloody goodHigh ball, particularly accurate box kicks caused both teams a lot problems.
ABs have a lot of work to do

Marx is always in the refs ear about foul play, high shots etc. He loves a bit of panto.
