Mixed bag in the 1st half by the Springboks.

Still too many ill-placed up and unders, too many knocks in attempting to catch up and unders.

grootblousmile on 27 October 2019 at 11:54 am

As expected, lots of kicking by both sides.

Worrying for the Bokke is that Wales exposed both wings of the Bokke on a few occasions.

Wales will be worried about their injured players, not only for this game but for next week too.
