Disasterous start for the Springboks… first an average kick by Faf, then defences out wide found severely wanting and then the Auusies just demolished Bokke defences near the Bokke line.
Does not bode well at all!
Bokke scrum near the Wallabies 10m line…
Bokke scrum penalty, against Alaalatoa!

Come on Kitsie, scrum them into the ground!
Reset scrum, it went down on Malherbe and Alaalatoa’s side…
Try Makazole Mapimpi, Bokke!
Excellent pass out wide by Faf de Klerk!
Wallabies 7 / 15 Springboks
Maddocks just bundled out to touch… 5m defensive Bokke lineout.
Try Matt Toomua, Wallabies, under the sticks.
Was a bad overthrow at the lineout… Mbonambi!
