I saw a post-match interview with Duane Vermeulen where he said that it disrupted the Boks more than it should have or they would have expected.
Vermuelen also praised Argentina for their overall performance. Vermuelen was very insightful about the key facets of the game that went wrong for the Boks. 
As he is so knowledgeable about the game and polite, he would be very good at working with referees on how the game is being reffed.

If Kolisis does not recover in time, Vermuelen will probably be made captain - unless it is AM,

I watched a portion of the second half. The Pumas exposed our lack of muscle on the gainline and gave us no space. It was a top tier pressure game. The Boks need a passive defence to run at and set up the following phases. I saw Thor being dumped in that second half, shortly before Libbok ran like a headless chicken and got turned over. These micro light backs can't operate in a tier one test environment. It was a very rude awakening.
