Some very strange attacking tactics by the Boks.

Pollard is standing so deep it’s not funny. The box kick is still the main game for them.

No change from all their games this year. Just a shock to come against a team that attacks, I think. And Oz not making as many mistakes as normal.

There is so much spacec wide, they rush up and in hard midfield. Oz are exploiting that well

The space for Kerevi in the leadup to the try was FdK rushing too hard and missing.

Kerevi had time to slip over, get up, run and pass to Kellaway who must have thought all his Christmases came at once, when Mapimpi decided to stop playing for three seconds.

Wallabies looking decent. Boks one dimensional as always, Le Roux calling the mark when oppo is 40m away and AUS have a man in the bin just shows how careful and risk-averse the Boks play. Hope Wobs roll them

I think was due to fitness, even he was puffing.

Probably, yeah. Still, I can't EVER see an AB fullback do that with a man up. You're puffing = opponent puffing, too, probably

Not sure if the boks coming out of Quarantine has had an effect,But they have been very average.

Would never have thought the Boks would be average

Quade is making a difference!

Lovin the Jordan 1s with the black suit though

He just needs to be solid, and he’s had some nice handling touches. He’s been well hidden on defence, haven’t noticed him defending at all. But with all the kicking, not a surprise

[Machpants]

Tackles missed – Wallabies 3, Boks 13
Scrums won – Wallabies 1 from 1, Boks 2 from 3
Line outs won – Wallabies 9 from 9, Boks 4 from 5
Penalties conceded – 7 all
Defenders beaten – Wallabies 13, Boks 3
Turnovers conceded – Wallabies 4, Boks 3

[Old Samurai Jack]

Boks are so predictable in their play they should be called "old faithful".

[No Quarter]

Was a really good call from Rennie to bring Quade in. They just desperately needed some experience at 10.

Both teams are going to disappear in a haze of dry powder

[antipodean]

This could be a tight rope if both teams do something constructive with the ball.

[KiwiMurph]

Must be that gigantic crowd that's making the difference......

[Bovidae]

The key for Aust will be to get impact off the bench outside of the props. And keep the tempo up.

The coach interviewed at halftime had it right: stop the back to back penalties, and don't get stuck in our end.

White on for Tate. Interesting
