Springboks v All Blacks
-
Red or not it's a stupid play from De Allende. Players should know how strict refs are on that stuff these days.

I would give man of the match to Malcom Marx right now, what a player
And he gives an assist for a crucial 7 point try, 65 minutes up on the clock

Great test. Unlucky Springboks, on another day they win that game.
-
This game will be remembered for the TMO decision and red card. It went on for extra 10 mins in one half. Bok fans said if we win by 1 point it is a win. If we lose by 1 point it is a still a fucking loss. What a turnaround from their worst loss in history. Overall I am proud enough to say a great passionate game of rugby. Boks could have won if they had started with some other 1st choice players.

ABs never seemed to adjust to breakdown free for all. TKB was so much better than TJP has been as impact player. Handling errors still seem to be unbelievably high. DMAC is playing more like Super self and Havili looks keke a natural. Best game I have seen from NMS since 2015.
-
Pollard needs to start. Assuming he is not broken again
-
Thanks de Allende! You are my kinda dumbass. Rough card, but no one else made you put yourself in the cross hairs...
Crotty huge. DMac only the one glaring error, good on ya fella, those rocket shoes certainly made up for it. Havili is made for black.
What a match, brutal. Top stuff springboks, great to see the passion. Probably would have won if they hadn't lost.
-
Yeah, loved that game. Test rugby at its best. The free for all at the breakdown lead to a pretty physical game.
However, if any South African complains about Pocock 2011 Rugby World Cup geting a free for all and not supporting his own body wieght......Boks No.2 Marx tonight had exactly the same free for all. It was silly at times. -

Wow, red! A bit harsh?
Late unnecessary contact made it a penalty.. using the elbow made it a yellow...making contact with the neck/head made it red. Left the ref no choice.

Man that was a physical test match.
Crotty and DMac were superb, as was NMS before going off.
SBW’s handling and decision making was a little off again, but we are fortunate to have him and Ioane, both are like extra forwards out there when they carry.
They compliment our other backs quite well.
The start of the match we looked awesome but just couldn’t finish off the moves, making some errors.
Our replacements played well.
Boks defend like demons, but their attacking game is very iffy. Their phase play and formation is fairly predictable. They need some creativity out there.
-
Garces is nearly as shit a ref as Nutbrown. Zero control at breakdown. Mauls called in seconds. Turnover penalties when rucks had been formed before hands were on.
What was that penalty against Read about after the knock on by DMac? A bok had kicked the ball! Offside had disappeared -
