Hey great win!....
But just personally, I prefer to win the game in the 81st minute to really make my night a bit more exciting and justify the celebratory drinking

LMFAO@ Thor's no-look offload.

LOLLLL only 30% possession and the Wobs still lit them up. Looked likely on attack the whole game but just couldnt get the possession. Boks just do not do helter skelter chaos well.

That shitbird with the 78th min headbutt on Kerevi, fuck knows how that's not a straight red.

It's nice to get a string of wins under the belt. ;) Two in a row woohoo!

Of course it's against the world champions fresh off slaughtering the Lions. Go to be happy with the Mandela Plate.

Fortress Suncorp, outside of New Zealand, it surely has to have one of the best records against Tier 1 teams in recent years

Good win against the world champs. SA looking a bit flat, maybe after the emotion of the Lions series.

Looks like each player improved on last week abd executed. Happy to be shouted down on this, but didn't think Hodge played that poorly.

Forwards were immense. Maul defense much improved. Gave White good quality ball, which makes such a difference.

And again, the tackle/ruck/maul was actually refereed. Suddenly White's not stepping over bodies at the base of the ruck, and the backs had a lot more time and space.

Let’s talk about the Boks for a second,

They obviously trawled these threads after the last game, as they moved to a more expansive game early on which many of us thought would expose the Wallabies, but it didn’t really work. Then they went back to their old game plan but managed to be shitter at it than last week? Go figure.

Obviously the Wobs countered well and were immense at times, but geez it looked a much lower energy Boks team than what I’m used to lately.

nah, Hodge was good. Dropped a couple of perfectly located Flaff boxes into WB traffic. Easy to suggest someone not on the field would have done better. Hodge should be given as much of a chance as Banks was - and Banks might not be coming back quickly.
