Geez Boks

We were slightly better this game but still way off where we were last year

We just struggle to create any form of attack in the backs and for me it’s down to Reinach at 9, Sacha being off his game at 10 and nothing being offered at centre creatively.

Look how well the AB’s create space out wide, with Jordie at 12 pulling the strings. Compare that to DA who takes it up - effectively but it’s not creative - we are not doing anything off the second phase he sets up.

Too many one on one tackles missed - DA, Kriel, Fourie etc

It’s like we have forgotten how to play and are just hanging in there on guts. It can’t last - things need to change.

Our scrum was disappointing today - where was the dominance

What’s with changing our starting frontrow before the game - selecting Fourie to start at 2 was senseless

AB’s are back to their best - next week will go down to the wire.

This old Bok side is lacking fresh ideas and it’s becoming easy to defend

3 tries to 4 - not good after 1-5 last week

4 to 9 tries

The Bok rush defence stopped operating in the second half. Backline was not nearly as fast coming up to their players.
I think we will be even better next week. The team is settling down. Next week Siya and Ox on for longer.
Yes indeed what happened to the total scrum dominance in the first half of the first test.
How about starting Morne van der Berg.
Do we need Pollock to close out the match.
Grobbelaar to start at hooker.
Think about starting Hanekom. More pace that Wiese. Let Wiese run at opponents more tired.

With Willemse out let’s go 12 Hooker and 13 Moodie in the next test and Fassi at 15 and let’s attack

How damn annoying was Reinach lobbing those easy kicks to be marked when had possession outside the 22?

Damian was no platform in this game. He was physically dominated throughout as a carrier and he looked vulnerable defensively throughout. He had an opportunity to shut the All Blacks down for their last try but fluffed his read and tackle. He made a very dominant open field tackle minute 38, but otherwise he was not a key contributor. When the intensity increased, he was left dithering around like Mr Bean. He tried to attack quite a few rucks but was of no consequence. Net result? Another meagre showing. We had the premier 12 in the game at flank. That just about sums up the intellectual capital of this coaching team.
