Correct decision

Such a great game.

 

4 classic matches this weekend. Finally the final has come to life!

Springboks should grind out the 10 minutes with some rucks and malls 

 

 

EDIT:  on seconds thoughts, now might not be the best time to go shopping…

Agree. And Kriel's diagonal to Kolbe for the try was exquisite.

Same, going to take a while.

Boks coaches seem to want their forwards to carry more, rather than remain defensive. Taking off your captain and fly-half - both were playing well - feels like a match-defining decision

I watched England play a game with the same shaped ball earlier but it definitely wasn’t the same sport
