While resident Mamparas were throwing their toys out the pram and wailing away as expected, this Kiwi gave a reasonably clear eyed take on the match.
Real concerns are how the second string front row props delivered. Can Thomas Du Toit make a difference. Also if we have Ox starting and Wilco coming on off the bench does that help us have a dominant scum throughout the match. Certainly our starting front row destroyed the wee abs.
Then of course how goes it with Kolbe and Siya. Can Hanekom at 6 add to the pack. Then it's the question of how to use Pollard. Personally I would give Hooker a chance in place of Arendse. Doubtless Rassie will read the riot act about discipline. Two yellows in succession sunk any chances the Boks had.
