[2014 TRC] New Zealand v South Africa in Wellington (13/09/2014)

[goodNumber10]

Vermulen is well up for this, he's already had words with about three of the Blacks, and given Read a smack on the floor.

he needs to cool down a little, but keep the intensity up.

that was all about Pollard.

 

[Drogers93]

What a try!

 

[Jaguares]

What a try!!!! Beautiful!

 

[Tony Manx]

Boks are no real threat to the Championship winning side that is the AB's................they will confirm their status with a comfortable win!!

I say that even though they have just conceded the first try of the match!!!

 

[austingtir]

Honestly SA look well up for this especially their loosies. They get down our end one time and score. Will be very intresting from here out.

 

[Patchey]

Smooth from Pollard. Nicely worked.

 

[Jaguares]

Horrible pass by... Louw?????

 

[Darwin]

Someone please start tackling Hendricks...

 

[Jaguares]

Second knock-on by le Roux tonight!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Some very lazy tacklers for the ABs

 

[Patchey]

South Africa winning this in the loose forwards at the moment, really troubling NZ at the breakdown. I feel that Cruden is a bit nervy and not backing himself enough, both those kicks were poor options IMO.

 

[Jaguares]

Someone please start tackling Hendricks...

Hendricks is on fire tonight!

 

[Thingimubob]

Anyone else notice the "not held" call there? Hardly fair to call "not held" (correctly) and still allow the supporting player to take the defender out, meaning the ball carrier can crawl on unimpeded!

 

[TRF Mr Fish]

Aaron Smith has been poor so far. Conrad hasn't been much better. At least Ben is playing well.

 

[The Jones Boy]

Where are all those young kiwis that said this would be easy?
Dreamers.
Must be sitting this one out hoping for the AB victory so they can shout Told You So?
Boring ********.

 

[Jaguares]

OMG! HUGE kick by Nonu

 

[Darwin]

Come-on! We need to start taking these chances soon....

EDIT: Tiger Woods off. Bugger. Then we pull down scrum. Seriously guys...

 

[Jaguares]

OMG!

Torn ACL??!!!

 

[austingtir]

Im beginning to get that feeling this is one of those matches where nz get 10 chances to score and SA only get two and win the match.

 

[Darwin]

Cruden needs to get flatter. We need to stop running so up-right. I'm getting quite agitated....
