I wonder if the strategy by the boks is play fast(er) and then sub early.

And then run out of subs. Yes, Nienaber is that dumb.

You can’t out-tempo the All Blacks…especially with Richie and Dmac still on the bench.

Unless we hit back hard early in the second half, I expect the last 40 mins to be a blood bath.

Abs have kicked more and have less running meters.

Kwagga is short. He often tries that “over the top” offload when tackled. Why are his support players NEVER anticipating it? 😡

Replacement fullback is also a turnstile and Nkosi looks injured. What now coach?

Jesus Christ NZ. Why is Beauden Barrett the only fucker at two consecutive breakdowns. Where are the rest of the forwards.

Pretty poor return kick there.

Net result lost 10m since last lineout mail.

And the Saffas have picked up on it, they're going hard on the counter ruck and getting rewards.

It was dire. Beauden Barrett was the only one competing. Forwards not even recognising the danger and we rightly lost it.

Akira going missing at the breakdown again. Barely seeing his purple undies anywhere other than out with his brother in the centres.

Who the fuck thought handing a microphone to Harrison was a good idea ?
