Did they sack Fozzie in my absence?
I reckon he's been hiding this for 3 years, waiting to spring it on an unsuspecting rugby world
I have only ever doubted him once, mind that was over his entire coaching career :???:

Headshot is just a pen now?

Are you seriously calling for a YC for that, when both players had almost stopped?

Boks who went to NZ early are the ones off the boil here. Faf, Kwagga, DDA, Willemse, Mostert

Just glad I didn't have to make that call.

But call made was my first reaction too.

That should've been a Bok scrum and not an AB drop out? AB player knocked it on. Kolbe was facing backwards so how did he knock it on.

Faf gets away with one there.

This.
TMO started his analysis with "knock on black" and I thought "nice". Oh well.

Perfect ending to abjectly poor performance so far.

ABs need to stay focused. Lucky not to concede there and the Boks most certainly aren't out of this.

Was always worried our " stars " would be undercooked.
Time for some changes.

Happy with the AB backs structure and game plan. Second week in a row they've worked 10 and 15 well, and let's see more of those bombs and Jordan jumping... nice to see the ABs take the Boks on at their own game.

Boks started to look a bit better after the first 20 minute nightmare.

Unfortunately for them, this is the All Blacks. A "bit better" isn't enough. You need to approach flawless to get even close to their level.

A Bok team with 8 Kirchoffs and 7 Fafs could be a solution.

Willie not at his best / folding under pressure.
