Best last quarter I've ever seen in an AFL game.

And I'm a Collingwood fan!

Wallabies player ratings vs South Africa | Flight Centre Series 2026

I enjoy the ratings and it's a decent system, but we shouldn't be afraid to dish out full marks on a regular basis

These are seasoned pros at the top end of an elite sport. It doesn't need to be a generational performance for the magic 10

Rassie caught out there. At least he’d the good grace to chalk it up to a learning curve…for the 4th and 5th officials

Very naughty

I’ve never been a huge Williams fan. Great player but not quite big and mean enough for the international stage but he really stood up tonight.

You’re arguing a hypothetical. Who knows if the Boks would have come back as strongly vs 15 men. What we do know is the Wallabies panicked and completely lost their heads. That’s why they were down to 11. Other teams heading into the WC will have taken note, these guys spook easily.

I'm procrastinating too. Also missing the Roar somewhat.

You make good points. Marginal call overall, but ultimately moot. They'd probably have gotten a penalty try on the reset as they were walking through Aidan Ross like a hot knife through butter.

Rassie caught out in another cheat move. Eben should never have been allowed back on and SA should be sanctioned.

No need for that sort of nonsense Ayre123. All those guys have been in the system on merit and have performed very well in the past, except for Porthen being a youngster. He is a bright talent though and will be in the frame for a long time.

Len Ikitau stars as 11-man Wallabies survive incredible Springboks fightback

It really looks like Les Kiss has a massive calming effect on the players in the Wallaby squad. He is also very much a student of the game, I have been very impressed by all the interviews that I have seen with Les. The Wallabies have had a lot of talent for a number of years now but have lacked self belief and good leadership. As the players are maturing their composure and leadership are improving. It showed last night with all the cards that guys like Williams and others seamlessly stepped up to lead the team. The Wallabies looked hungry last night.

Suaalii yellow was a mistake by the ref, in my opinion. If anything he could have given a penalty, if Su was indeed offside, but there was absolutely no justification for a yellow. Lonergens yellow was a difficult one, I reckon most players would have done the same thing in that situation, stopped a try. Paisami and Wilson were bad luck but unfortunately the rules say that if you make contact with a players head it is yellow. The Wallabies showed some real guts and determination holding the springboks off, they deserved the win.

Len Ikitau stars as 11-man Wallabies survive incredible Springboks fightback

I agree with the refereeing over the phone. Pretty Good crowd numbers of 54678 in a stadium of, I believe 60k. Would have been nice if the stadium was full. It was strange that there were a couple of blocks of seats free, wonder if they were for sale or left open for some reason? I think one of the contributing factors could also be that the game was on a Sunday evening so there were probably fewer people travelling for the game, than if it was on a Saturday.

Spot on. I’ll add BOK the linesman, I think he told Piardi that JAS was offside and recommended a yellow card 🤦🏻‍♂️. Too often he got into Piardi’s ear , just let the game flow please

All Blacks dependency on Cam Roigard means he should sit out Super Rugby

The continued attempt by the media to build Roigard up is nuts. He was average at best in South Africa. Quite poor often in fact. He is simply an “OK" halfback by international standards. Young Dylan Pledger from Otago looks a far more world class player in the making. Roigard, like Love, got revealed to be not all he is hyped up as during RGR. Simple as that.

There was a clear overlap and the Black Ferns could’ve raced 90m to score and win the game.

Gotta give the girls the respect they deserve and this should teach a lesson to everyone that you play to win.

I suspect not many. The whole vibe in the lead-up seemed to be weirdly low-stakes. It will be interesting to see if any of yesterday’s poor performers are left out of the Nov touring squad.

Talking points: Process and discipline drove the Red Roses to victory against the Black Ferns

Black Ferns pushed the World Champions who are on a long-running streak and played at near full-strength on their own home turf and nearly lost the game to a side that was under-strength and rapidly improving at an alarming rate.

The BF’s don’t need to “go back to the drawing board”. They need to keep doing what they’re doing cos they smashed Canada and France and nearly beat England in their fortress.
