@MiketheSnow the NZ radio commentators liked RM tonight (I'm yet to see game so neutral here).

Thought he was excellent meself

Boks obviously told pre game by “technical” Pearce that contests for the high ball had to be genuine. WR would have been on edge that another BB incident would happen.
There weren’t bodies flying in at all angles around the catch area this week@Crucial said in Springboks v All Blacks 2:

Fantastic win
Congratulations
But you won in spite of RM not because
If you think he’s the answer at 10 you’ve learned nothing
He did some very important things in terms of getting our backline going. Made some terrible errors too. But overall his intent in attack is what we needed tonight.
Yeah laughable to suggest what Mike said.
@Canes4life said it best when discussing JGB. I'd rather have rocks and diamonds than just rocks.

If Polllard had been playing for NZ it would have been a canter

Bring on the young props
good Bok capt speech. Admits the game was too fast for them in first half.

that was won on Ryans improved maul defence and a shitload of pride from the boys.
Both flyhalfs completely shat the bed.
Perspiration not inspiration.
He should still be sacked for dropping Samisoni against the Irish and his continuance of picking that midfield and back row.
Fletcher Newell , DeGroot and Samisoni are beasts

Yeah the young props were absolutely superb, and they'll only get better from here after that

What the fuck did Pollard do? Disappeared or passed it to Am? Yeah good one.

But passing it to Am a good tactic, no?

That so called “leg lift” against Whitelock was an unnecessary call too. Wasn’t even lifted and had zero effect. Could have been a turning point on the match.

Was that the one where we smashed on the 22 and they got the penalty?
Otherwise yeah, tough (and technical) but fair.
Really didn't have too much to whinge about.

Agreed. That's how a game should be reffed. Like night and day compared to Gardiner last week.

Plus the following two leg lifts that I never saw evidence of.

On the other wing the interference jumpers were bumping players away for their catcher.

Was really impressed with De Groot tonight. Bought some real steel to his game especially in defence and cleaning out.
