I gotta say though Goodhue must start. As soon as he came on the back line looked untold better.
Sounds silly but he is the Dan a Carter of centres. Has sooooo much time on the ball and does the right thing every time.
That bok defence though. That was something else. For 80 mins too. Truly didn’t think they had the fortitude to do that
Yeah absolutely re Goodhue. He adds the punch that ALB just can't from centre (I think ALB is a 12 all day). Crotty was ok. ALB was persona non grata.

I think ALB was better than Crotty (who offered nothing IMO), just overshadowed his decent game with that silly and unnecessary intercept to that dwarf

It's funny how people are talking up the Boks defence..
They gave up 6 tries.. If the AB's had a goalkicker, they would have won..

The only positive from Crotty was that he didn't go off injured

Judging on tonight's game I would count that as a negative

ALB & Goodhue worked a lot better -

The neutrals are going to be partying big time now.
Keep a count of "All Black Aura" articles in the next week....

Could be the night Barrett's lacklustre goalkicking gets shown up if it stays tight. I pretty much expect us to pull away later on though.

Beaudem Barrett fucking sucks
And so do his deadshit brothers

Seriously disappointed with Barretts B and J tonight. BB's kicking was fucking awful, even worse considering he was on his home ground, and several of those kicks were an international goalkicker's bread and butter. JB was a bit woeful at the back, and that shockingly bad quick throw in should give him nightmares for a week.
The Boks played well, but fuck man, we gifted them points. And flushed away our own.

You’re dreaming if you think that NZ should have won the game easily.

@rocky-rockbottom It happens. Yeah Barrett's goalkicking and not attempting a droppie was awful and you'll get the usual people screaming Mo'unga's name for the next while, but I think everyone needs to calm down a bit. It's not the end of the world and we can take plenty of learnings from this test and not be so complacent next time. We don't take losing well that's for sure. Well done SA great to see them give it to us it'll be a great test in Pretoria.
