Jasper Wiese is on for Duane Vermeulen, who is getting a head assessment.
All Bokke lineout ball thrown onto Orie..
Bokke scrum, inside the Wallaby half… about on the 10m line.
Duanne off for a concussion check?
Halftime
Not a good Springbok performance… lacklustre, errors, no impetus!

Pushed off the tackle ball. Eish!
It’s like the bokkies are playing in a tranze. Going through the steps but there is no intensity.

Yip
Coach need to rip into them.
Bokke scrums and lineouts have been good, but that’s about all…
Massive defensive problems
No accuracy in attack, running sideways
Scorning opportunities
So, who can rectify this??
More direct running, straightening the line, better passing needed.
Bokke will need to pick up the intensity.
If Wallabies scores first in 2nd half we are going to loose.
Maybe the Bokke should attack with big forwards, towards the flyhalf channel, in so doing pulling more Wallaby backline players in on defence, thus creating more space out wide… then only play out wide.
The Springboks have the forwards to lay the foundation…

Willie need to come in on a straight angle against Pollard sideways drift.
At the moment the both drift to the sideline.
Whatever happens, Bokke need to bolster defences and they need to radically improve, right here, right now!
2nd Half ON!
Duane Vermeulen is back on.
Also sharpen up on first tacles.
Bokke lineout, on the 22 of the Aussies.
Try Am, Bokke!
That’s better. Some intensity.
Wallabies 15 / 17 Springboks
Bokke penalty, against Valetini, deep in Bokke half.
No penetration by the Bokke, time after time…
Mark by Hodge…
Mbonambi down again…
Come on, replace Mbonambi, give Marx a full go!!
Bokke playing more direct in the backline now.
Very good clearance by Hodge…
Bokke whole front row subbed…
Kwagga Smith on, Marvin Orie off.
