Let the marathon whinge commence....

hey Nukie! What a Test Match! 

Absolutely epic match.  Best game I've seen in a very long time. I really thought the Boks were gonna win.  Hopefuly this result will put a lot of the Eden Park ghosts to bed. 

 No doubt Nukie! This was a Test between men and I really hope the Bok fans don't hyperanalyse and run their Team down.

 It was about pride in the jumper as well.......I hope JOC and Beale were watching.

@hakwa.  Yeah, I think there is a lot for fans of both teams to be proud of. Game was on a knife edge and could have easily gone either way.  After Habs scored his brace I thought the Boks were about to run away with it. 
@Denny. Yeah, pride in the jersey is paramount for Kiwis and Saffas. It's been missing from Aussie squads lately.  

No excuses here nuke. We got a fair game and great ref. the players were left to decide the game an that's all we want as rugby fans. The ABs are just better than us. That's the long and the short of it

After the build up, the anticipation, the banter, the hatred what a game take a bow booth teams for the game of the year, all respect to the Boks congrats to the AB's.

 Yes it was a good game but unfortunately we shot ourselves in the foot too often. However kiwi bird brains we are on course for 2014 so watch out! 

 What a game, end to end stuff, looks I was wrong about the jet lag factor. Was really hoping that the boks could close out the game. ABs just getting better in every department. How many line outs did all blacks win from the boks. 
Really thought the guys could do it. Kiwis were simply to good and experience. Here is looking forward to the next time for more epic battles.

 King corn - I am not worried about the lineouts. Just remember Fip was out. Also du toit will be on stream next year and he looks to be an outstanding lock in the making. Eben is the best in the game. We also may find young Labuscgne in the mix. We will also see the more mobie malherbe take over from Jannie etc etc.I see little to be concerned about. Meyer has some adjustments to make and can experiment a bit on the year end tour. The simple truth is we are very close but have great potential to improve significantly.

Agree bean, are on track. Looking good, NH will be in for some beatings. I'll be backing the SH teams.  

 might have to send the Police to take him off the sidelines if he resists ...arrest....I mean gently led to his ....cage...I mean bench.
