      Frizzell was carded for falling over

      That's the one we were really dudded on, I think.

      "A rugby collision", O'Keefe said - and that's basically what this was. They said as much when they didn't upgrade it. And handed the Boks the early momentum.

      I didn’t know the law / focus area of not allowing people to fall on exposed knees etc - ITV had the Irish ref on call who immediately called it as an issue, Barnes then reffed it exactly as he said he should. He was actually concerned it would be red. The fact we didn’t know about it doesn’t mean it wasn’t reffed correctly

      Which law?

      If he'd done it intentionally, it would have been red. Accidentally falling on someone is an accident.

      20d, and intentionally is not mentioned in that law

      Dangerous play in a ruck or maul.
      A player must not charge into a ruck or maul. Charging includes any contact made without binding onto another player in the ruck or maul.
      A player must not make contact with an opponent above the line of the shoulders.
      A player must not intentionally collapse a ruck or a maul.
      A player may lever the jackler out of the contest at the ruck but must not drop their weight onto them or target the lower limbs.

        That final play sort of summed it up
        DMac somehow breaks the field open. Savea (who was exhausted) wasn't clean, and nor was ALB.

        I may be alone on this but I would have played DMac a lot earlier.

        No, it was clear that the game was crying out for his skill set

        If I was to be super critical of the coaches, there was a window with 10 or 11 minutes to go where I thought DMac on for Barrett and the game might open up for us. In hindsight and with the 2nd Boks YC, it probably would’ve.

        They have hardly used him at all ,

        In the previous games I assumed the thinking is , we are ahead and we aren’t crying out for what he brings,

        This game was a different set of circumstances, we were behind and we needed a spark

          Beaudy was pretty awful, under the high ball, kicking, decisions etc. I would have put DMac back there at half time

          He just went to pieces didn't he? We were lucky he didn't take us out of the running altogether

                      Yeah - look it it in real time. It's purely accidental in my view and a poor call.

                        I kind of wish that I wasn't reminded of Barnes admitting the penalty wasn't a penalty as I was a fairly contented (as contented as you can be) but now I'm starting to get angry about it. 🤣

                          Frizzell was carded for falling over

                          That's the one we were really dudded on, I think.

                          "A rugby collision", O'Keefe said - and that's basically what this was. They said as much when they didn't upgrade it. And handed the Boks the early momentum.

                          I didn’t know the law / focus area of not allowing people to fall on exposed knees etc - ITV had the Irish ref on call who immediately called it as an issue, Barnes then reffed it exactly as he said he should. He was actually concerned it would be red. The fact we didn’t know about it doesn’t mean it wasn’t reffed correctly

                          Which law?

                          If he'd done it intentionally, it would have been red. Accidentally falling on someone is an accident.

                          20d, and intentionally is not mentioned in that law

                          Dangerous play in a ruck or maul.

                          A player may lever the jackler out of the contest at the ruck but must not drop their weight onto them or target the lower limbs.

                          "Target" is the operative word.

                          very good point SF wasn't even looking at the legs.

                          Which is why it stayed as a YC

                          Penalised for the neck roll
                          YC for dropping his weight on the jackaler
                          YC because it wasn’t deliberate and ‘targeted’

                            I kind of wish that I wasn't reminded of Barnes admitting the penalty wasn't a penalty as I was a fairly contented (as contented as you can be) but now I'm starting to get angry about it. 🤣

                              Did any of the players who were the "victim" of those head clashes go off for a HIA?

                                I don't believe so. No doubt the would have been tactical subs though, not HIA.

                                  That bit is irritating; if it is so dangerous, them the victim should get seen to off the field.

                                  Makes a 7-1 bench a bit of a risk 😜

                                      Commiserations guys. The ABs showed what class they are.

                                      Enjoy it bro. Four more years of being labeled World Champs.

                                      I genuinely interested in what the Boks will do when it comes to how they select their side. Will today’s win give justification for it? Other than in set piece play, the Boks midfield are hardly ever in the game. So continue to play like this and the forward selections will be the focus.

                                      It was noticeable in that last 10 that the ABs expended a lot of energy covering for Cane’s RC.

                                      Think horses for courses. Yes, the win justifies the selection today. But if they (coaches) had lost it would have catastrophic and could have been a blowout. They backed themselves and it worked out. Barely. I think rassie is smarter than fossie…. As hard as that is to accept for some.

                                        Funnily enough I felt like our tactics were generally very good today. We should have been more direct, but our exits were deeper. I'll put a bunch of stuff on the players' failure to execute today. Which is tough because their efforts were immense

                                          Our exits were better, but did anybody else notice that our long exit kicks were significantly better in open play than in free kicks / penalties?
