Scott Barrett replaces an injured Liam Squire, shame because Squire was having a good game.

Fair to say the ABs mini-slump might be over. Two fantastic tries and discipline in defence. Boks desperately need that lineout to start working.

I think Marx needs to start thinking about a career as a loose forward. Frustrating as he is an immense athlete.

Wierd to pick on Rhule when Marx and Kriel have at least two turnovers each.

Okay. Picking on Rhule is fine. Even his tackle on Ioane there was made harder due to bad positioning. Failures all over the park for the Boks in this half.
Absolute quality from the ABs though. Higher quality than the first half against the Wallabies in my opinion.

His channel is a goldmine at the moment, his inside numbers are crazy to leave the outside tackles to him on the drift!

Not too shabby a first half there from the AB's! Looks like I was right and this is the game where the AB's get into top gear. Best 40 minutes of rugby this season. The test may be whether the AB's can put the foot on the throat and take this home in similar style in the 2nd half. They havent really put 80 minutes together yet this year.

Hames has had a bit of a shocker and DMac hasn't been his best. Other than that, this ABs side is on fire. Cane has been immense, Smith on top of his game, both wings looking dangerous and Barrett having a vintage performance... and making his kicks!
Just hoping we don't fall away like we did in Bledisloe 1. Gotta put the foot on the throat here.

It feels like the AB's have the top side out there, there is a different feel with the team today.

I can very easy think about 4 other wings that should rather be in that jersey he is wearing , he have missed about 5 to 6 tackles already.
