Penalty England but it's surely too late. Reinach clears and it's over. Bokke win 29-20.

Well done Bokke! Not the best 2nd half and the bomb squad didn' t really come off today but a good win. Good game. Well played to England too.

The first half was very good, but the game's intensity dropped as the second half progressed.

Hopefully that was Manie's Bok swansong but I fear not. He will get a run against a weak opponent and look like a world beater and everyone will be convinced all over again.

I think Jordan Hendrickse will get a start against Wales.

Not a fan of him either, too erratic.

Bit unfair . . . give him his shot. We all know SFM is the long term solution but Hendrickse has earned a start.

Vincent Koch also deserves a mention for having two important interventions towards the end there .

Cheslin Kolbe is a gem. Not sure we would have won that without him.

Now for the All Blacks vs France. Should be a cracker. I don' t have a preference here and I'll support whichever team plays the more positive rugby.

Yup, Cheslin makes the impossible look possible. What a player. 

Dud was quiet all game except for one line break and Cheslin brilliance. 

PSTD probably the first time I saw actually tired.

Kwagga is the ultimate impact player. The energy and tanacity he brings on. 

Fassi was quiet. Manie was poor. Time to hive Hendrikse another crack

Agree. I'd also mention Jesse Kriel for his defence in this game.

Another game saaved by  De Allende - that brreak settinup th try by Kplbe prov gain hat he is a star and essemntial p;ayr in the Springbok team.   

Otherwise it was not a good match - just to many penalties given away bu both sides,    Amd the consttant icking by especially Libbok was  pathetic,    .

Well done. 

Some decent stuff from us, on the odd occasion, but far too many errors again.

You should have won that game Becs….on the Bok line, Boks a man down for much of the rest of the game. That should have been 2 points down and a man up for most of 10 minutes.

It’s still going wrong for us, Mozart. 

Poor selection and tactics.
