New Zealand Vs South Africa Live Thread

 Boks get the drop kick against the run of play. Cruden makes a mistake. ABs need to settle down.

 ABs win a scrum penalty.

Some good play by the Abs. 2 replacements for ABs in front row. Barrett on.

 Good scrum ABs.

 Pollard playing very well but misses penalty kick.

 Penalty ABs.

 Bizzie lost his mojo..

Great game, still up for grabs 14 10 abs  

 14-10 to Abs. Barrett makes the kick. Bok set pieced not working well now.

 Le Roux the usu al  mixed bag.

 Le Roux hamstring.

 Game on the line with this line out.

 They will try another line out.

Srum to ABs. Very tense affair.

 Poor blimmin le roux , damn shame

 Big SA scrum, they win the put in for next scrum. Game on the line.

 Character ,both sides ! cheers Bok fans be proud of yer lads ! ABS baaaaaaby !

 Phew good win Abs, great effort SA.

 Game over. A great game, close, Boks played very well & took their game up a couple of levels for sure. Hope this stops all the angst. Pollard played well.
Congrats to the mighty ABs well played Boks.

Damn! Hougaard, why did you go on the short side at the end there you twit?

Good game. Well done New Zealand.

 one of the ugliest wins over the last years but a win against SA is a very important win. Well played SA and many many mistakes from the AB

 Well done Boks - outstanding defense, outstanding setpiece, outstanding new number 10

 Congrats ABs fans, that was an epic match. 

@ Wardad, i think you right, Bizzie is just a shadow of his former self, Strauss is our current best Hooker and probably should have stayed on the field for a bit longer, Le Roux had a terrible game today.  
2 losses in a row for Mr Meyer now, he's in serious trouble

 Duane Vermeulen, what a titan. 

Shezza I rate Duane Vermeulen very highly

 Vermulen best playrr on park, Richie went very close too, what a try! Sa maybe ranked 4th but they def the 2nd best side in the world. At least this time their was no controversy with the ref . Nz just find a way to win, it doesent matter if you win by one point winnings winning. Still Sa still lost, so i agree two losses in a row, not looking good. 

 Even if the ABS play like sh!t you still have to have a "perfect storm " of a game .N'tanga ,man I am shocked to see Bismark playing such rubbish by his standards .I have always rated Strauss .

 Stupid me I put Vermuelen out of my team ...Arrrgghhhh!

 Wardad, Maybe if we could include Vermuelen in our Olympic 7s Team he would be eligible to play for the ABs next year

 Yeah me too Wardad i choose Luatua instead haha, but its always best in hinesight. 

 what twaddle the hapless abs only  scored when two Boks were down injured!!
old man mcaaaw, conspicuous by his absence for most of the match simply had to catch the ball and fall over the line. Fortunately for the wee abs he managed this simple task.long may he stay in the side!
Bissie, Beast and Jannie were played into the ground - we all should know that. Very poor player management by Jake.
