[RWC2019][Pool B] Round 1 - New Zealand vs. South Africa (21/09/2019)

[TheOvalBall]

Defense of the Boks are a shambles.

I mentioned earlier that the Boks could gas at 60 considering the pace they were setting... more like 16 though.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

ALB. What a cut inside to create that try.

[Leonormous Boozer]

They're going to be very very hard to beat.

 

[JohnKA]

Boks is clueless already

 

[bushytop]

So the kick pass on phase 1 is how the All Blacks will crew up the blitz.

 

[ncurd]

I feel for out Saffer friends they were so excited before this game.

 

[JohnKA]

Right, I want a word with South Africa's defence.

What defence hahha

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Best I've seen from ALB in about two years. But that defensive line, oh man. This now looks like it could get ugly and Hansen looking like a genius. What a difference 5 mins make.

They're going to be very very hard to beat.

Watching both late games there is ONE significant difference between to Abs and the rest. It is the accuracy of the work. The French and Argentina tried the offload game but struggled with the accuracy. The Abs 2 chances and finished all to do with the level of accuracy.

 

[Tadginator]

Mounga is being exposed and targeted when he drops back to fullback

 

[ratsapprentice]

Faf is such an animal.

 

[TheOvalBall]

Forward play is so boring and 1-dimensional from the boks.

Ardie vs PSTD there was enough to cause PTSD!

 

[Bull]

Missing so many tackles especially 5, 11 and 13. AB's are creating a lot of problems for the Boks in Am's channel.

Boks have been poor under the high ball. Kicking away too much possession.

... aaaannnnddd, Choose Life! All is now well in the world.

 

[Ddanno]

Faf is such an animal.

Such a little menace in defence. He's like every sterotype of the chippy SH was drawn in a loony tunes cartoon and then brought to life.
