Geez, that linebreak was far too easy. They want to attack down Australia's left hand side.

Libbok actually getting this backline moving instead of having the South African 10 boot everything away could be a massive masterstroke
Great work by Hooper at the breakdown.
Both sides have now missed a long range penalty. Libbok's kick was short, Reece Hodge had the distance easily but his shot was wide to the left.
That'll be coached out of him before too long or are the Boks genuine about wanting to move the ball?
That was clever from the Boks and this is starting to look a bit like Ellis Park 2019 where a so called second string Bok team was too good.
Books looking pretty good. They're fairly comfortable here.
Australia so scared to run with the ball, far too much kicking for my liking
Is there any logic to that kick at all from 66m down 12
The one time the Wallabies ran the ball, they looked good. Shelve the kicking game, use the ball and use it smartly. The Boks are going to rack up a score if nothing changes.
Reece Hodge is a long range kicker but that was ambitious.
Boks only had to make 36 tackles in that half compared to the 75 from the Wallabies.
Accurate.
Australia very very poor
What do we think of the last pass for that try? At best it was flat and even that might be a generous way to look at it.
I’m guessing they’ve picked him for his running game you cynic.They’ve looked very good. Aus, by contrast….looking a lot like England have in recent years
That’s a ridiculous call, he just gets monstered by 3 boks. Really harsh to blame him for pulling it down
Heading closer to this score than the other

A hell of a lot of time left and Australia are done. This could get so ugly.
Could they have called anything else though? He definitely pulled the maul down.
Yup and the last pass for KLA's try was suspect at best.
I dunno, if he stayed legal he wouldn't have stopped them. It's not SA's fault that he was left alone Vs 3 players.
It's falling apart a bit too in the cricket now!!
feck me, a goal line dropout going out on the full.
Another penalty try and I can't really argue with this one.
Yeah, that slapdown type of penalty can often be contentious but that was about as clear as it gets.
This is getting ugly.
Ooofff! Lots of work ahead for Eddie
Yeah your doomed I’m afraid mate….I stuck £25 on you yesterday when England went favourites, which means you’re well fecked
As much as I don’t like seeing Aussie rugby slide further into the mire, as an England fan who’s been fed up with our game for 3 years it is delicious to see Eddie get mauled on his return to the game
Argentina getting absolutely destroyed.
Think the ABs have remembered it’s a World Cup year
That question from the South African journo
The only positive for the Wallabies is that the Boks didn't score 50. The Boks have got plenty to be pleased with in regards to their performance with and without the ball.
Prendergast back to immaculate goal kicking.
Ireland 21 - 7 South Africa with 18mins to go.

28 - 7 now.
Delighted that Ireland are showing the kind of performances they have in the 6N in this tournament too.
