Farken hell
That was simply incredible, if only Sexton had converted that penalty, if only!

173
That would have gone against SA, but NZ owns the IRB, and the TMO looked to invest in his own career
Damn die Iere het niks gescore in 2d helfte nie , sad
Ah no very disapointing for Ireland, they just needed to keep possesion for about another 30 seconds and they would have made history, well done All Blacks just too good 14 wins out of 14 for 2014 for them.
I am simply drained after that!
If only Sexton had put that easy kick over… if’s and but’s….
Well done to the All Blacks having clawed back and scoring 17 points in the 2nd half…. and playing for 82 minutes
Cheers guys, that’s me over and out!
All Blacks winning ALL their games in 2013… 14 out of 14.
Now THAT’s a fabulous season!
Looked close but didn’t think the pass was forward, so it came down to a missed penalty that Sexton would kick over 9 times out of 10, not long before then he kicked a 22m drop out direct to touch, the moment just got too big for him, he could have ensured Ireland got their first win ever against the All Blacks in front of big home crowd now that’s pressure.
SA 149 / 6 after 36 overs… need 74
Philander out…. 155 / 7
Blomme throwing it away now
Would like to see the All Blacks tap and go from the last penalty they got again, it may have been from the right place and just passed back to the player who took off but think that he may also have started running with the ball from behind were the ref had indicated the penalty was, is this allowed in the Laws of the game? By running from that deeper position it was really clever as it created space for the All Blacks with some of their players between the initial runner and Ireland defence and may be just gave them a bit of advantage in getting some head of steam in the build up to the try…
193 @ grootblousmile:
No that must be it over now too many runs to get with too few wickets left
Come on Blomme…. ch, ch, choke
Blomme need 62 from 62 balls
Blomme need 51 from only 42 balls.
SA 168 / 7… 7 overs left
Duminy out on the reverse sweep, off his gloves and caught
Morkel will just have to open shoulders… only real chance
Treat it like a T20 match, is what they should do
Immediate 6 by Morkel
Can’t expect the bowlers to do it, was surprising though that Steyn went in to bat before Morkel
Dale Steyn just cannot get runs… boggerol
44 Needed off 36 balls
Yeah was right Morkel is a better batsman than Steyn as Steyn has an average of 7 in One day internationals and Morkel 8
206 @ Bullscot:
Morkel is the harder hitter… and that is what is needed now, make or break
38 Needed off 30 balls
6 By Steyn… hehehe
SA 187 / 8, 4 overs left
Need 32 from 24 balls
