It was effective, no doubt, but there is no excuse for it. The SA player population is large enough that they could select a side that was able to playing running rugby and win. They simply decide not to do that.

If the Bok's play like that against the AB's I think they get smashed. Putting the ball into the hands of the back 3 of AB's is deadly.

I think the Boks will beat Wales, but if they try to out power NZ or England, they would be successful. Those are two teams with deep benches, hell if they take that approach with Wales they might come up short.

It is a horrible brand of rugby and should be an embarrassment to the nation that they play that style.

If I took a shot eveytime Barnes said "Use it" I would have alcohol poisoning.
