South Africa look like bees all over honey. They are suffocating The All Blacks. They will need some huge engines to keep this pressure up.

Most blatant yellow I've ever seen! Shocking by Garces

Agreed, but the All Blacks didn’t seem to panic at anytime in the first 20 minutes under the cosh. I think the All Blacks basics are better. Run, pass, tackle, kick...

All Blacks obviously cheating and that commercial Haka at the beginning took far too long :smt023 :smt046

Was it as bad as the Aussie winger's shoulder to the head with no arms that went completely unpunished?

Would take Barrett as our reserve fly half or full back...he is rather world class.

Straight to the head with force, arm came through as an afterthought IMO.

I think Fiji or Argentina can have more to complain about the ref than the Boks to be honest, although Garces couldn’t get a grip of the ruck in my view.
