Here we go: so far AUS look passionate and SA on a work day.

 Boks have shown us some good movement of the ball in backs and forwards. Not bad so far but need to get more than 3 points when Oz is on a yellow card.

I missed most of the first half. It seems the excellent men have consumed the resources

 Yup, but they probably will have a second course in the second half

Nope. A last minute appointment.

 AUS seem out of gas. It was a long travel.

 Boks are lucky that the Wobblies have missed their goal kicks. Still up by 2.

fat Albert replaces Ruddie Page. Does this mean that Alberts is now playing at prop?

 At least the Boks are playing with confidence.

 Totally. AUS lacks the gas to bring speed and intensity and SA is playing its typical dragging down, wearing down rugby.

The whole thing lacks spark, inspiration, soul and heart.

Morne Steyn is controlling the game- this is why everyone is falling asleep

 Was there a try in this game? Scrum after scrum to open up on kicking down the ball, with sometimes mood lifting attempt at beheading a non white player.

 Morne's boot is a winner, 18 points all from his own boot.

 Congrats to the Boks, a better performance in this game. Oz forwards didn't play well in the last quarter, a lot of scum penalties.

 ABs can sleep quietly. Even AUS can sleep quietly. This kind of rugby wont win tournaments, world cups etc

It will work now and then on specific games, it wont go further.

It is another sign that SA would be well advised to stop XV rugby as they keep failing to bring any innovation.

 Oz dominated territory and possession. Win will probably confirm the dunce Coetzee in some crazy decisions.
Weakest players. Alberts, Paige, de Jong and a Lambie. Lambie has played 20 minutes rugby and is out of position at 15 so we can excuse him. 
Boks won on passion and solid play by Morne. HUGE EGG ON OU MAAAIKIE AND SAFFEX AND WEE CCC.
THE TEAM IS A SHAMBLES AND CANT SEE COETZEE FIXING THINGS. BOKS LOOK LIKE TALENTED AMATEURS 
Oz were the better side. 
THANKFULLY FAF WILL BE BACK. REDLINGHUYS MUST START. ROHAN MUST START AND ALLENDE ON BENCH. LE ROUX AT 15.  COETZEE MUST BRING IN A WING.mARX ON BENCH.ITS HARDLY WOR TH TALKING ABOUT AS COETZEE AND QUOTAS WILL DASH ALL HOPES.
