Thank you Dave Rennie

Gonna go out on a limb here and predict that little benny BS shith is going to write at length about “studgate” in the days ahead.

If studgate had a purpose, it backfired. The AB scrum improved dramatically from that point onward.

Allblacks hanging in there need to tackle and take the ball up . I think the springboks might runaway with it in the second half if the allblacks keep making those silly errors it's of penalties unnecessary

Without a scrum, it’s just too difficult… being only 13–12 down at half-time is almost a miracle for the All Blacks. De Groot didn’t look right from the very first minutes of the match. He should have come off earlier.

Losing the set piece battle and the aerial battle. Ruck speed clearance has slowed right down. Boys have a huge 2nd half in front of them!

I’m struggling to focus on life with this game on the horizon.

Anyone who isn't looking forwards to this has to stop following the sport. It is one of the most astonishing games on the rugby calendar. I’d say that SA have the upper hand but it could go either way

Its going to be a very good contest but it's not astonishing. Astonishing implies something surprising, but this fixture happens multiple times a year, every year.
