Boks v Wobblies I
-
Well done Wallabies. A thoroughly deserved and convincing victory.
You held your own in the scrums, dominated the Boks in the lineouts and never allowed the Bok maul to get going. Great work at the breakdown and then really good work to open up the Bok defence for some great tries.The Boks managed to look good for 20 minutes and then seemed to completely lose all rugby IQ.
Hugely frustrating as a Bok fan but there are always 2 teams on the park, and this time the guys in gold were simply better - by a lot.
There will be some hard introspection in that Bok camp, that's for sure. -

Jorgensen just scored and I'm pretty sure I'll never ejaculate this hard again
Get ready for round two at 76 mins
Ok I was wrong

Sean Maloney sounding like he's ejaculating.
Big Seanny is an absolute top bloke and an absolute Rugby nuffy.
He's played various levels in Sydney and knows the landscape here very well - the good, bad, and ugly.
He's a champion for the game here and his love of the game is unparalleled.
Yeah don't mind him personally. Gets excited in the commentary box during games, nothing wrong with that.

Not sure why the Boks decided to play rich footy instead of just bashing us.
Next week is going to be wayyyyy different
The emphasis they're going to take to the breakdown suggests it will be brutal and TMO interjections could be numerous.

I wasnβt able to watch yesterday but caught the score. Now 20 mins into the game and trying to come up with a movie reference or some kind of sports comparison to reflect on how it turns out.
Boks fans dancing in the stands right now.
Update: Mexican wave at 23:30.

Once they got early success maybe they just fell in love with high tempo rugby, and couldn't revert back to plan A when it started going sideways?

I've only seen the highlights but bloody hell what a start for SA and what a bloody turnaround from Aus.
2 points of surprise for me:-
- I thought Nic White had retired?
- The clear out by Nche in the lead up to the first try had echoes of Morgan's clear out but nothing mentioned/whined about?
-
Surely one of those Aussie back 3 have some kiwi heritage?
What a joy to see them running in space like that.
Cracking game, I thought SA would win by 60 after 10 mins. The mental game to stay in that contest was incredible.
I think T2 will be really tight. These Aussies have belief now.

Too many steroids
The boks aerobic fitness was awful, the faster pace of super rugby this year might have helped the aussies
Replacement THP looked a candidate for the dietician.
Heβs already lost 17kg!

They convinced White to come back after Gordon was injured.

Just not going near ruck clean outs ...
