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

Pollard been taking lessons from Lambie.

Did not realize Lambie was that good!!

We're making a lot of mistakes and not building any pressure or putting phases together. If we keep playing like this it'll have to be individual brilliance from Savea, Fekitoa or Barrett to get us home. I think the saffas might get up in this one.

Good first half by SA, but not enough to win. NZ will clean up in the second half IMO (as they always do).

Dunno this time SA have actually been rather impressive actually beating us at our own game really. Trys from inside their own 22 where they would usually kick. Try's from setpiece. Great try's from their flyhalf....

 

[Jaguares]

HUGE first half by Boks. I hope they can keep up

Yeah, they're cutting the AB's defense up like a knife through hot butter.

I actually expected South Africa to just be on par with NZ in the first half and then slowly integrate their subs in second half on the highveldt to win it then but it seems they are just trying to play the all blacks at their own game. lets see cant wait second half

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.

I'm not having any difficulty distinguishing the two. It's not so much the shirts, but the fact that South Africa are wearing white shorts and have gold collars and trim.

 

[Bean]

That's an SA try :| Unless offside.

My bad.

You still up? Such stamina.......

Just about gave away a soft try there. 2nd half going very much life the 1st so far.

Well done SA! Game over........

 

[Primrose]

24-13 now. Going to be very tough for the All Blacks now.

It's 9:13 a.m. here now. Got plenty of vodka left and plenty of tolerance.

Before waking up 7 hours ago I did sleep something like 20 hours off and on. Only left my house to go to an NHL game. Wish I hadn't, we sucked and it ****** me off.

 

[Darwin]

Argh. We need to be far more clinical than that if we are going to get back in the match.

 

[Bean]

SA getting away with a lot in the tackles.

 

[Darwin]

Take. The. 3.

 

[Jaguares]

Kaino is forming as lock in the scrum...

 

[hjklhjkl]

Edit: Nope

 

[Jaguares]
