Thoughts on the 4Ns AllBlacks versus Boks
Firstly it lived upto all the Hype or most of it very physical BOTH sides got away with a lot of niggly Professional fouls,jersey pulling,tackling players
in the air,off the ball etc,BEST match I`ve seen for years both sides going at it hammer and tongs,Scrum is currently a mess.Defending side puts
in a second shove and opposing front row is suspended in mid air.AB`s were penalised for it in the First Scrum a few minutes later roles reversed
Bok Scrum going up No Penalty?as long as the 9 has to delay the put in this problem will occur.Players being popped up,losing there bind etc.
and the ensuing endless resets or penalty/freekick.The Referee was totally out of his depth on Bismarck Du Plessis asks TMO if foul play
occurred.TMO said no foul play so Poite gives Bismarck a Yellow,certainly he was Off side from way back so it was a cheap shot on Carter.
Carter out 4-6 weeks not dirty or illegal just unlucky the second one was out and out illegal an elbow to the side of the neck.
The AllBlacks would probably have won anyway,but NOT with a Bonus point next match is crucial for both sides.A bonus point win by either side
would mean BOTH sides would need a bonus point from the last match and points difference may just settle it.ABs of course may win in SA
it has been known but minus Carter ,possibly Dagg,Nonu and McCaw that's a big ask.

For fourty odd minutes it was a close great game.
Bismark should never have been yellow carded for that first tackle, and did not IMO deserve too be red carded.
A good win for the Abs. But could of been a lot closer than it was.
