  I am an ardent saffa and sa rugby supporter and promoter guys, but only a biased person will say that yesterday’s game is of the same quality as today’s. Here there is a far more constant level of play from both teams.

  must say at times this rucking and counter rucking looks so messy. No offside line just a lot of guys pouncing on the ball

  Come on Reds…. another try will be good, the 4-point margin is too small… suits my Bru, but it’s too small

  Very closely contested game this. No one team is clearly stronger than the other….

  We say a lot about Sonny Bill Williams from time to time but Surfer Dude’s offloads are just freakily good, sometimes too good, confusing his own crowd of players

  Saders have the stronger scrum and better kicker, reds more elusive runners……..

  I missed the first 20 mins of the match, but from what i’ve seen, SBW has not been prominent. Is that correct?
