SA looking pretty ordinary, but excusable given this is their first game in forever. Elton a bit pants though.

Wales doing their best to not concentrate on the game as long as they win the ‘I’m ard’ competition.

Be interesting to see what the ref does here, in danger of things boiling over to an uncontrollable extent if he doesn't get a handle on it now.

Yeah I know. No histrionics, no ego…just these are the rules and get on with it.

Watching it on a Saffa feed, commentary genuinely balanced, but you can detect the frustration for sure. We've much improved from the shite we were in the 6N, but you just know what's inevitable ...

the way they play, you'd swear they didn't have a back that could cover 100m in less than 15 seconds; it's bizarre

I really don't understand why Biggar's captain. Samer issue Farrell has - he's just so combative and antagonistic with the refs. It can't help his team.

It's a boon to the whole rugby world that they consistently squander such brilliant raw athletes in the back line.

Fair play to Wales, they've stepped up. Haven't actually created much, but they've taken the chances that have presented themselves.

South Africa can surely only improve from being so poor.

Going to have to move Willemse to 10 and get Le Roux on ASAP. Jantjies a massive liability out there.

Also need to yank Lood off the park. Also having a bad day at the office.

Shocking opening half by the Boks. Well done to Wales. Did their homework and taking their opportunities.

A classic lesson that proves pace can turn half chances into tries. Neither of the starting English wings would have scored those tries.

An astonishing half by Wales.
Kept waiting for the Bok turnaround but it never came.

... and that yellow against Biggar !!

If you mean Sarra Elgan Rees, she is steeped in rugby and knows her stuff. She's a presenter on BT Sport rugby coverage, she is the daughter of Elgan Rees and is married to Simon Easterby

Presumably Faff has seen Liam Williams play.

You kick to him and you lose possession.

Fair point, (though no one is more orange than Gav) but she does know rugby.
