Wales side v boks announced

Record defeat for the AB’s.

Big statement from SA.

I watched the game and it was a thrashing and it could have been a lot more. New Zealand were penalised off the park. This was down to South African pressure but also I think having four northern hemisphere officials. New Zealand didn't get away with things they normally do at home. Also with so many South Africans playing in France and their sides playing in the URC they know what they can and can't do with the officials. The only side to have any strength in depth up front like South Africa is france.

Even if he didn't, there was no way he would recover it having overrun the ball, so no try - so no penalty try.  Boks clearly the stronger side, but this ref is and always has been useless. According to BBC, try was given by Joy Neville. Brace did not want to award the try. Thats not quite true- both wanted to give the try. But Brace was a bit more cautious. There was one angle which suggested the ball, which was still just rising lept upwards before Dyers hand got to it. So the saffer knocked the ball on.  This pair of Cardiff props were penalised repeatedly again. So from our scrum on halfway, we found ourselves defending in our 22 a couple of times. That doesnt work against the boks. IF Wyn and Samson were there, we'd probably have won the scrum and been playing in their half.  Props need to be capable of proping.
