 Ratings are not to bad at all considering the first half. Steyn was not well appreciated & le roux got 7 out of 10. Hendricks was highly regarded do that could be a promising sign. Based on the comments on the board these ratings are two high.

 Le Roux deserves an 8/10.

hI ave copied the ratings and  it should be realize that ratings of 5 and 5 out of ten should really not be applicable to test level players.   Would agree that Willie should be 8 out of 10.   All the rest are rated at least one point higher than they should have been.   Shalck Burger was active but seriously ineffective - a rating of 6 is probably correct.
5 Willie le Roux:
Like most of his teammates was somewhat error-prone before the break, but then showed his class with ball in hand - including a crucial try inside the final 10 minutes.
7/10

14 Cornal Hendricks:
The rookie wing looked threatening with ball in hand, including a sublime break late in the game that set up Willie le Roux's try and another brilliant run that resulted in the match-winning  penalty try.
8/10

13 JP Pietersen:
Some early handling errors, but once he settled made all but one of his tackles and also had some handy runs.
6/10

12 Jan Serfontein:
Was rock solid on defence, missing just one tackle, and got over the advantage line a few times.
6/10

11 Bryan Habana:
Looked for work and won a crucial turnover penalty early in the second half, while he had a couple of promising runs.
6/10

10 Morné Steyn:
His game was littered with errors, but on defence he stood his ground and came into his own late in the game.
5/10

9 Fourie du Preez:
He struggled behind a pack of forwards that was unusually sloppy and only looked at ease once the game opened up late in the second half.
5/10

8 Duane Vermeulen:
Early mistake, when the sun appeared to be in his eyes, then missed a tackle and struggled to make ground with ball in hand. Also stood off the scrums far too early. But on defence he was a monster.
6/10

7 Willem Alberts:
Made nine tackles in his 20-odd minutes on the field and missed one.
6/10

6 Francois Louw:
He was one of the more accurate Boks, made his tackles (which went into double figures) and carried hard - with little reward.
7/10

5 Victor Matfield (captain):
Made his tackles and was dominant in the line-outs, including his customary poach.
6/10

4 Flip van der Merwe:
His eagerness cost his team at times, as he conceded a couple of penalties and was yellow carded in the second half. Continued working hard.
5/10

3 Jannie du Plessis:
His scrumming power was very evident in this game, even though he was handed two questionable penalties. Was very effective on defence.
6/10

2 Bismarck du Plessis:
Crucial turnover early in the match, but his line-out throwing not always accurate and he missed a few tackles.
4/10

1 Tendai Mtawarira:
Powerful in the scrums and made a mountain of tackles. Didn't make much ground with ball in hand.
6/10

Replacements:

16 Schalk Brits (on for BW du Plessis, 65th min):
Had one decent run, but then knocked the ball on. Made all his tackles.
5/10

17 Gurthrö Steenkamp (on for Mtawarira, 65th min):
Monstered the scrums after he came on, but could work harder off the ball.
5/10

18 Coenie Oosthuizen (on for JN du Plessis, 58th min):
Made all his tackles, but made no ground with ball in hand.
5/10

19 Lodewyk de Jager (on for van der Merwe, 45th minute - blood):
Not enough time to be rated.

20 Schalk Burger (on for Alberts, 24th min):
His workrate, energy and physical presence had a huge impact on the game.
8/10

21 Ruan Pienaar (on for Steyn, 23rd min - blood):
Not enough time to be rated.

22 Wynand Olivier (on for Serfontein , 74th min):
Not enough time to be rated.

23 Lwazi Mvovo:
Not used

 Last week the ratings were bullshit. This week they are great again.

13 JP Pietersen:
Some early handling errors, but once he settled made all but one of his tackles and also had some handy runs.Settling down well in the center roll. Mike sees defensive lapses?
6/10

12 Jan Serfontein:
Was rock solid on defence, missing just one tackle, and got over the advantage line a few times.
6/10Fine young player on the rise. The whole backline did not benefit from really good front foot ball.

10 Morné Steyn:
His game was littered with errors, but on defence he stood his ground and came into his own late in the game."behind a pack of forwards that was unusually sloppy"
5/10

9 Fourie du Preez:
He struggled behind a pack of forwards that was unusually sloppy and only looked at ease once the game opened up late in the second half.
5/10Still a good scrummie

7 Willem Alberts:
Made nine tackles in his 20-odd minutes on the field and missed one.
6/10Still his work rate does not impress

5 Victor Matfield (captain):
Made his tackles and was dominant in the line-outs, including his customary poach.
6/10Not a tight forward end of story!

4 Flip van der Merwe:
His eagerness cost his team at times, as he conceded a couple of penalties and was yellow carded in the second half. Continued working hard.
5/10Not up to his usual standards after his break

3 Jannie du Plessis:
His scrumming power was very evident in this game, even though he was handed two questionable penalties. Was very effective on defence.
6/10Tired player. However his work outside the scrum has never been great.

2 Bismarck du Plessis:
Crucial turnover early in the match, but his line-out throwing not always accurate and he missed a few tackles.
4/10Was better than this rTING but Bissie is played out as well.

Replacements:

17 Gurthrö Steenkamp (on for Mtawarira, 65th min):
Monstered the scrums after he came on, but could work harder off the ball.
5/10Fair comment

18 Coenie Oosthuizen (on for JN du Plessis, 58th min):
Made all his tackles, but made no ground with ball in hand.
5/10Not performing in the scrums? Not driving the ball up too well either.

20 Schalk Burger (on for Alberts, 24th min):
His workrate, energy and physical presence had a huge impact on the game.
8/10
I felt he started off tentatively but got better as game went on. Start him against Scotland?
T HE REST OF THE PLAYERS WERE ACCEPTABLE GIVEN WHO IS INJURED ETC
