[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 1097703, member: 58362"] I don't think the South African defence is getting enough credit in this. These guys haven't forgotten how to pass and catch, they failed to execute because of the pressure they were under. A more composed team would have stopped trying to offload and throw a pass too many and adopt a more conservative approach. When New Zealand's ball carriers went route one in the last 15 minutes of the first half, they looked the better side for me. Half time came at just the right time for SA, who were reminded revert to their base game plan of keeping it tight and kicking. NZ lost their momentum and tried to play too much rugby again. [/QUOTE]
