    That is a HUGE result for Ireland and World Rugby.

    I’m pretty much so front and center of the criticize Ireland bandwagon but I’ve got to take my hat off here.

    Awesome.

        The Saffas are taking players out well beyond the ball at every ruck

        And players like Kriel go in first at a ruck (after the tackler) purposely go beyond the ball with hands on the floor but don't touch the ball and then pull back. But that move really slows down the ball and prevents the scrum half (normally) from getting the ball away quickly

        Boks are great at that sort of stuff. PSDT particularly good at lying on wrong side after tackle and blocking the clean. In RWC ref protocols were not to look out for that. BUT then tackled player often pinged for ‘not releasing’.

          And the Raeburn Shield changes hands in the most dramatic fashion.
