Rugby Championship 2025 : South Africa v Australia Round 2

[FrankLind]

Boks look rudderless.
I don't know what has happened to them

all in all a frustrating game but reckon the wallabies will be pleased with their tour and effort.

three injuries in the backline made it hard to get things flowing. but they fronted up incredibly well. dont think a 50/50 went our way all night. and doleman is absolute kak.

also the boks look like absolute shit and will get pummeled by the kiwis.

Yeah i think there is a lot of good to take from that result.

We lost our best counter attacker in the first 4? minutes. Our starting 9 after not much longer.

Not a convincing win from RSA but they got it done with what seemed a bit of luck and a much better kick/chase

Toole looks the goods and clearly Jorgo is.

 

[North Liberty]

Get marky marky back and steal cleary and we’re winning the World Cup

 

[Super Hooper]

The game ended how it was, with a mistake

 

[BDA]

Got up for the game and glad i did. Good effort from our boys...had a chance to win it despite losing half the backline.

 

[Linerunner2023]

Could only imagine if we also had
Slipper, AAA, Wilson, Gordan, lygnah, Donaldson, pietch, plus 3 injuries to 3 backs we actually have some great depth there as well

With Jorggo and Toole at this level you don't need to waste big money on a winger. Invest in the next generation of tight-five players. Forwards win games, the backline decides by how much

Tate didn't look as good with that longer game. Missed White. Tate is much better off the bench. Maybe Lonergan will be our future starting half when Whitey eventually hangs up the boots.

 

[ACR]

Australia played well. Few things just didn't quite bounce their way and unlucky to lose. Guess the kicking made the difference. That's why South Africa employed a full time kick-man.

Our forwards were great tho

Cleary has never played rugby. Marky will definitely come back imo.

Tony Brown inside job.

 

[North Liberty]

Cleary has never played rugby. Marky will definitely come back imo.

He did play in NZ he went to same school tupou

Doesn’t that shit you in a 2 test series the winning teams retains it despite loosing the first game by more points
Make it who won by the most - winning margin

Yeah they look like jerks celebrating lifting that trophy after that game

 

[Shiggins]

Hate to be a downer but I think either us or Boks will be wooden spooners this year. The Boks are not playing anywhere near as good as normal. They are way off. Have to be happy with the results and the wallabies are starting to look better for sure but until we play Argentina and abz I just don't know where we sit

 

[BDA]

After that game its hard to argue that boks are currently a better side than the wallabies. Id like our chances to beat them in a home series

trophies in a 2 test series not named bledisloe are stupid anyway. not everything needs a shiny toy at the end.

 

[Shiggins]

The sling tackle on white and hip drop on occonner. They should look at taking it out of the game. You don't often see the bigger players tackle like that when we know they can.

 

[Super Hooper]

Yeah but winger is the least important position and the easiest to replace. With the Roosters fighting over him, Marky will be very expensive. It would be better to invest that money in the next Meafou and prevent him from going to France
