Absolute slug of a match.

Surprised to see Marx stay on for 78 minutes. What's the point of bringing a guy on for 2 minutes?

The loose trio were brilliant until 60 minutes. Would have been useful to have other loosies like Roos, Vincent on the bench and not a massive 12 who has been shoe horned.

Moodie and Fassi both had games to forget.

MOTM - between Cheslin & Pollard. BOTH were brilliant but I get so much joy from watching Chessie.

That final play was so frustrating. Bonus point thrown away by a poor pass from a guy you actually back to go forward. Another example of over playing it under the new attacking framework. Old Eben goes straight for the line.

Fassi? Yea the yellow at the end sucked, but SA won this game in the air, thanks to Fassi and Cheslin.
