NZ playing the conditions. Some of his delivery been a bit shit, but reckon the ginger has done okay under a lot of pressure.

For a number 4 or 5 HB , he’s doing ok

For once I'm confident in our bench forwards. Not so much the backs

DMac is playing okay.

He's already on. I'd move him to 10, even if they don't want to take BB off. At least he might take it to the line

Who would you replace/move in the second half?

Jason Holland.

He did everything asked of him. More than we can say about others in the backline

[sparky]

Great to be 14-3 ahead, even if some of the rugby was meh.

Today's all about protecting the fortress so if we avoid defeat I'll be delighted.

[booboo]

Anyway. Happy so far. Feel overall we're in front, beyond just the score board.

40minutes lads.

Need some pill and play down their end.

[BorderJB]

@canefan need a impact back, only difference maker could be Tupaea into 12 and Jordie one out to 13, give him some more space.

Will won’t be getting Air Jordan nicknames any time soon.

Tits for hands

He seems to be going for tap backs all the time instead of catches.

[ACT Crusader]

All of our pack have done an excellent job at hitting the defensive rucks with some purpose and making it hell for Williams at the back.

The feature of the game along with Vaa’i and Scooter winning ball off their lineout.

[booboo]

@kiwiinmelb said in All Blacks v Springboks I:

Without getting negative, it’s worth remembering we led at halftime in both games last year

Yeah

Fuck

[KiwiMurph]

An opportunity from the restart to win some territory

[booboo]

Ginge been good (mostly).

Kicking spot on.

It isn't working

[nostrildamus]

So our best back so far is Narawa, another they only selected out of desperation. Am wondering if the selections could be a bit more experimental/adventurous.

I'm not a fan. But credit where credit is due. I'm curious to see Preston later

[kidcalder]

@Bovidae yeah he has absolutely shite in what should be his nailed down responsibility playing out back.
Can't fault him in other areas but surely he can correct this...

[booboo]

NZ need to tighten up

SA are one pass away from opening up the backline defence

Really?

[bayimports]

Felix quite objective doesn’t deserve to be in boks coaching team lol

[Bones]

Fucking hell Kolisi and Kriel. Family show

[canefan]

Williams out there. Did Cosy fail his HIA?
