Despite the new IRB scrum laws, the scrum has been nothing short of a joke today. Collapses, free kicks, penalties, nothing has changed. Still back to the same problems.

@Jean-PierreRyke didn't mean illegally. Quality tackle and smashed into the ground onto his right shoulder. Mentioned it because that's the reason he is not on the field.

It's simple enough, now, for All Bkaks??

All Blacks turned over once again inside Boks territory. Penalty and Steyn brings SA into All Black territory. Eben Etzebeth has been hugely impressive thus far

Rian Botha reckons the All Blacks are whining sissies, try reading comments after yours - they arre th whunung sussues!!
Kick there arses The Blacks!!

The main thing is that the refs are making the wrong calls (referring to the first yellow) and then it costs you later in the game when something bad actually happens. My problem is the inconsistencies in the refs these days. Pathetic, the bunch of them

Strange time to make a front row substitution, a double at that, considering the Boks have the put in to a 7 man scrum under their own sticks. Kirchner comes in on the blindside to add some weight

All comes to nothing after Nonu has the ball ripped from his grasp

All Blacks with prime attacking ball here with scrum in middle of the park, 25 out

What? Come on? What game are you watching? He received a perfectly legal hard tackle. Never was he driven into the ground
