[2014 TRC] South Africa v New Zealand in Johannesburg (04/10/2014)

Dagg totally hopeless as a defensive fullback. Cant tackle for crap!!

The look on hansens face said it all really.
 
We aren't in this game at the moment. It's all South Africa so far....
 
New Zealand finally gets a good try.


Great skill the pass from A smith was so sharp to savea I thought thats what gave Savea good time to do the accurate chip.

Very against the run of play but I did feel NZ would somehow get some points before HT.
 
Great skill to get that ball down for the try. TMO better give it.
 
And another try to South Africa. They have dominated this 1st half. I hope the AB's wake up in the 2nd half. We have been completely outplayed so far.
 
8 point lead at HT NZ will have to turn things around bigtime for the second half to win this. There are good signs but they are certainly going to have to watch pollard a bit better he seems very capable.
 
Good first half by SA, but not enough to win. NZ will clean up in the second half IMO (as they always do).
 
Biggest issue for all blacks in 1st half was fekitoa shooting out the line in defence. He is putting a lot of pressure on outside backs. Tbf SA are moving the ball well but fekitoa needs to compose himself and read the move a bit better.
 
The colour contrast between 2 sides is not clear enough. One of two must wear 2nd jerseys.
By the way, my friend told me: "unlike Football, home side wear 2ne jerseys in the case of colour clash." But it seems not always true.
