Boks 17-5 up at half time after early try for Australia.

Early signs are South Africa are playing a more open game.
Considering who they’ve got missing their strength in depth is impressive

Strange how he can be insured over there and no doubt RWC but not to play in the premiership.
That back row and 2nd row is so strong considering they’re 2nd choice

I was going to say, I bet England fans are glad he's gone!

But as you said, as Tigers' fan, I want Eddie Jones / Oz to win the next couple of world cups. On today's performance, that does not look likely!
