    Clear lesson for Razor's All Blacks (and everyone else) when they in South Africa is to never give up and play to the final whistle.

          That, but also some of these Boks strike me as less than humble.

            Let me put it this way. I've seen classier actions by losing teams on full time.

                  winning drop goal from Ireland, several Boks run toward the ref claiming obstruction on a kick chasing kolbe. ref uses tmo and kolbe just slipped on the turf

                      Well played Ireland. The warning signs were there… Farrell saying it was Irelands most important game ever, bok lethargic start. They fought back well and looked to have it in the bag when I thought for sure it was Irelands to lose. The 1 point loss puts SA in good company

                          @W32 I'm not alone in calling it a dive. The front-on footage is more conclusive.

                            Kolbe should have had a YC for that shit and the remonstration afterwards

                            Hopefully the citing officer will intervene

                            Slippery slope otherwise

                                That's a total dive, if a sight move of the hips is obstruction, every player in every game should be penalised multiple times

                                  I guess at some point we were bound to lose one of these one pointers sooner or later. Pity it wasn’t extremely much more later but also unbelievably grateful it wasn’t any sooner.

                                  Ireland were incredible. Streetwise, gutsy and stubbornly refused to accept that the scoreboard should reflect the relative playing abilities of the sides. Scrum was particularly impressive.

                                  Young SFM had a helluva game and Williams played better than I thought he was capable of.

                                  The rest of the boks … not surprised they wanted to fight after the final whistle. F all tactical sense, shite timing and dimwitted options from minute 1-80. Why would a whistle change that in minute 81?

                                    I hope Kolbe cops assholes for throwing his arms out dramatically after he slips.

                                    Hell of a droppie to win a game like that

                                      Interesting one. Guess only Uncle Cheslin knows. But I doubt he dived, might have slipped but felt he was knocked off course somehow.

                                      Irish player’s hips did sway ever so slightly towards him though!

                                      But good call from the ref. Ireland so well coached. Razor thin margins at the top level. Feels a bit silly only playing 2 games.

                                        Penalty at 3.48 was given, but ball appears to come off a Bok hand, not an Irish hand. (or is that still offside anyway?)

                                          The aspect of Irish play that's nice to watch is how often they have bodies in motion. The only try scored in this match was beautifully set up. The rest of the game was a contest in asserting defensive dominance.

                                          Nice to see a team set up a match winning drop goal too. Kolbe should be ashamed of himself taking the barest of nudges and sprawling - this from a player with some of the best balance and steps in world rugby.
