We lost the game with such dignity...against the top...and there is still plenty of room for improvement...we went into second place with pride and respect of old...players like Faff, PSDT, Marx and even Kriel, DeAll ende worthy of mention...back on track...not perfect but plenty of room for others to improve.
Great effort SA and well done NZ...that's the type of rugby that I grew up with.
Seb and you have not seen it the last 8 years.
I would say that there is room for improvement in the SA team. I believe we need another lock - De Jager is retuning to play soon. I will also like to see a stronger backup for the loosies
I think the players were very good and a weird ball bounce in the end gave the AB's victory.
Well said Slobolobsky and ou Maaaai kie.
Organhuffer will be a bit embarrassed regarding Allende. Wasn't the Organ also trashing Kriel. These two outplayed the nz centers as they did at Newlands last year. The EGG lands! Then there was the Du Toit debacle, then there was all the fun poked at Rassie! Bwahahhahahahahahaahhaha
Maaikie...I think that Rassie knows the way...Beeno is often right...he certainly was with Trump and his forecasts but the Kiwi Birds still will haunt him...my opinion is that they are the best and obviously still the ones to beat...they have never lost to Scotland , let alone Japan and Italy but the history of rugby will change...they will sit at the top for as long as I live...the odd SA victory against them however is possible and on the cards but today has underlined the fact that any side that plays well can with a little bit of luck can beat them.
Mozart went ballistic again and AO and him are consulting on how to work jointly to denigrate certain predetermined players. I am really looking forward to get their BS corrected - normally so very easy.
I have nothing to be embarrassed about. The game was largely what I said it would be. Damian was at best a D+ performer. He was slow, ponderous and made bad decisions. I fear that Rassie is the coaching equivalent o f Damian.
Erasmus put the Boks in a position to win until the last 10 minutes. If he hadn't made the subs and they lost you guys would have been bleating about that. He did what he planned and it didn't work against the ABs - it might have been fine against other teams. In short Erasmus has improved the Boks so stay tu ned.
...How bout that final touch finder ... Richie channeling his hero...
This is total BS by Mozart ad his faithful assistant AO. There attacks on Erasmus is uncalled for and they should grow up. But that is impossible as the two idiots do not know about rugby and growing up would make it even worse,
I have read some real BS coming out of those two - but their attacks on the coach and the normal players they hate were relentless and as per normal was top be expected, I give up on those two.
Cloudy put it correctly - instead of their attacks on the same players they always do they should appreciate the very good effort put in by the Springboks. It is evident that they cannot and never will be able to appreciate the performance of the team and players.
The standard attacks on Kriel nd De Allene were exposed - but neither of the two BSter mentioned the fact that two of the three Springbok tries were scored by those two players, Ever heard of one-sided BS - that was it.
What attack? He blew the test with poor bench usage. His decision to start Damian backfired. Where's the attack? Do quote it Mr. Clever.
Is it hate, or dissention against the authoritarian might Lügnerinopia? You spit you dummy out at the first sign of disagreement.
What the hell are you on about stooge. De Allende scored one of the Springbok tries, which neither you or the even more stupid Mozart mentioned once,
I asked you a string of questions ad you could not answer one - but to lie again about average age of players,
What a load of totally rugby ignorance of two members became evident on t his site.

Praising defeat...
How unexpected, this after SA people on this board claimed it was all about victory. The priviledge to lose.
If anything, the question is about NZ level as their RC games were worrisome. They seemed exhausted, unable to focus and relying on flashes of good play to get a victory.
They could have ended with no defeat, their production would be lacking.
