Will post as I go, anyone feel free to contribute whatever you want.

First order of business - how Kriel got an easy opening score.

Boks off to a great start with the kickoff being caught and booted out by Jordie 30m out, immediate field position. Lineout win, 15m rolling maul. From here very simple - Fourie breaks away and from this point the ABs are on the back foot and the Boks play too quickly to give them time to recover. Quick ball from the Fourie breakdown, short ball to Wiese tackled by Tupea, then quick ball again for the pivotal big gainline run from Kolisi through Jacobson. Quick ball now sees Eben (clapping his hands calling for it) and PSDT run the inside dummy line to keep Ardie and Holland static. The ball goes straight past Eben and PSDT to Jesse, who attacks the gap left outside the frozen Ardie and Holland and inside Jordan, who has just enough doubt to deal with with Sacha running outside Jesse to be unable to affect anything. Try.

The rolling maul which started some distance from the abs line was a treat to behold. You knew the Bok ment business.

Ja we had numbers in the end, Hooker was unmarked on the touchline so any of three players could have scored that. Well taken though, simplest route, we've seen these situations leading to nothing many times in rugby.

03:25 first box kick Reinach, Hooker secures, Kolisi first there to clear. Reinach to DDA who offloads forward to Wiese, who drops it anyway.

Might have to download another replay video, this one keeps freezing up while the commentary carries on.
