All Blacks 21 Springboks 11
15 Sep 2012
GARETH DUNCAN brought you live commentary from the Rugby Championship Test in Dunedin..
FULL TIME: ALL BLACKS 21 SPRINGBOKS 11
80 mins: ALL BLACKS PENALTY! Cruden denies the Boks a losing bonus point with the scoring act of the match. The ball sails over the crossbar and the final whistle blows. ALL BLACKS WIN 21-11!
79 mins: Cruden has a late shot at goal, but hits the post. And a rushing McCaw gets the ball and creates some late drama. But the Boks restrict the New Zealanders, but illegally so and the All Blacks have a late penalty.
78 mins: Boks find themselves in All Blacks’ danger zone, but they’re errant and can’t capitalise. New Zealand escape thanks to a big Dagg clearance. The fullback shows his big boot
73 mins: ALL BLACKS PENALTY! Cruden converts another penalty soon after Goosen’s three-pointer. All Blacks in a very, very comfortable position now. ALL BLACKS LEAD 18-11!
70 mins: SPRINGBOK PENALTY! Goosen lands his second kick at goal, from the right touchline. Wonderful attempt. ALL BLACKS LEAD 15-11!
67 mins: Replacement flyhalf Johan Goosen gets his first chance at goal – from 55m out! Gets some good distance, but falls short. Good try from the young Bok.
65 mins: All Blacks get a penalty in a kickable position, but Cruden misses this time.
63 mins: BIG BLOW! Greyling costs the Boks a man as he gets a yellow card for foul play on Richie McCaw. All Blacks against 14-man South Africa.
60 mins: ALL BLACKS TRY! Brilliant stuff from replacement scrumhalf Aaron Smith. The ball spills out of the breakdown, but he picks it up and has dart. He beats three defenders as he dives over for a telling score. Cruden adds the extras. ALL BLACKS LEAD 15-8!
57 mins: Poor kicks from Pienaar and Morne Steyn costing Boks the ascendancy. Morne Steyn tries to find some space behind the All Blacks line, but Dagg punishes the Bok 10 with a big clearance.
50 mins: ALL BLACKS PENALTY! Replacement prop Dean Greyling gives away a silly penalty at the breakdown, and Cruden punishes the Boks. THE SCORES ARE LEVEL AT 8-8!
48 mins: SPRINGBOK TRY! Individual brilliance from Habana. The speedster breaks the line, and chips ahead before chasing it down to score. What a try. Morne Steyn doesn’t convert. SPRINGBOKS LEAD 8-3!
42 mins: Boks gaining good metres, and hit All Blacks hard on attack. But Habana loses the ball in the tackle, and it’s another butchered opportunity in the opening minutes of a half.
41 mins: Springboks get a deep kick-off to start the game. All Blacks kick a poor clearance in return. Good attacking position for the tourists early on.
HALF-TIME: ALL BLACKS 5 SPRINGBOKS 3
40 mins: All Blacks prop Tony Woodcock concedes a late penalty at the lineout, taking out a jumper in the air. Morne Steyn gets the final chance to score points before the break. But he misses … again!
36 mins: Lucky let-off for Habana, as he makes a hash of fielding an up-and-under. He clearly touches the ball as the kick goes out on the full. But the assistant referee misses it, and takes the play back 30m and gives the Boks possession.
32 mins: ANOTHER MISSED PENALTY! From five penalty attempts, the Boks have now missed four. Morne Steyn pulls his third shot at goal – and it wasn’t a difficult one.
30 mins: Boks win a penalty 58m out from goal, and Frans Steyns argues he can do it. He gets a good strike, but it falls inches short from the crossbar.
28 mins: Boks do well to put themselves in good attacking positions, but their backline play has been so uninspiring.
26 mins: Boks defend the All Blacks rolling maul well, and force the tunrover. Kruger does well coming through the middle and wins the visitors a scrum, relieving the pressure.
24 mins: BIG HIT! Read welcomes Vermeulen to New Zealand with a big, big tackle. And the All Blacks win a penalty at the breakdown.
22 mins: Springboks are doing well in contest at the breakdown on defence. No 8 Duane Vermeulen does the job on this occasion, and Morne Steyn gets his second chance at the posts. But he misses as he slices the goal attempt, which fades to the left.
19 mins: ALL BLACKS TRY! Offloads galore, punching holes in the Bok defence. Lock Sam Whitelock’s offload to No 8 Kieran Read puts the hardman into space and he sucks in two defenders. And during the tackle, he offloads to fullback Israel Dagg, who has a clear run to the whitewash. Cruden misses the conversion. ALL BLACKS LEAD 5-3
17 mins: SPRINGBOK PENALTY! Morne Steyn finds the target from his first attempt. the Boks are finally ahead. SPRINGBOKS LEAD 3-0!
16 mins: Bok pack doing good work with some strong and effective ball carries. They milk a penalty against the All Blacks defence, and flyhalf Morne Steyn will get a shot at goal.
14 mins: The All Blacks find good field position from the resulting touch finder, but knock the ball forward at the lineout. Then they concede a penalty at the following scrum. The Boks are dominating the set-pieces.
12 mins: Frans Steyn carries the ball against Cruden, but the New Zealand No 10 does well to take down the big man. All Blacks contest well, and the Bok support concede a penalty at the breakdown.
9 mins: Habana wins a penalty in a kickable, but difficult position. Inside centre Francois Steyn steps up for his first shot at goal, from about 48m out. He strikes … but it’s wide.
7 mins: The Boks are enjoying most of the possession and playing the game in the All Blacks’ half, but not making much of this early ascendancy.
4 mins: MISSED CHANCE!!! Wing Francois Hougaard puts the boot to a loose ball and finds space behind the All Blacks line. Possession is recovered and the Boks are 5m out. After a couple of drives, the ball is spread wide but fullback Zane Kirchner’s pass to wing Bryan Habana is spilled, and the hosts escape. The Boks butcher a clear try-scoring opportunity.
KICK-OFF: All Blacks flyhalf Aaron Cruden starts the game with a high kick-off. And it’s a good start as lock Juandre Kruger takes it in neatly. Scrumhalf Ruan Pienaar clears to the halfway line.

GO BOKKE!
15 Sep 2012, 09:09 am
This is going to be massive, let’s see if the blacks can increase their accuracy, better decision making, and very high tempo, moving the boks all over the parks.
15 Sep 2012, 09:10 am
Loving the commentary from Supersport so far
15 Sep 2012, 09:11 am
Will be close in first halve, and then the usual
15 Sep 2012, 09:11 am

Ignore Meyer’s instructions Boks…ignore!!!!!! Do your own thing and fucktheconsequences.
Here’s to a great game.
Nothing like this: AB’s vs Boks (well in my opinion at least)
15 Sep 2012, 09:15 am
@The Sharks rugby pedigree is packaged as dog food-13: youre not alone in that opinion..
15 Sep 2012, 09:15 am
Kieran Read is the BEST 8 in World Rugby currently, says Mallet!
15 Sep 2012, 09:15 am
Go Bokke. Big job ahead and a chance to redeem with a good performance regardless of the result, although I fear a big lesson in modern day rugby lies ahead. Hopefully HM learns a thing or to as well and we get to see Gooseneck and Lambie on the park.
15 Sep 2012, 09:16 am
All Blacks v Springboks, nothing like it. Miss the old Rugby tours.
15 Sep 2012, 09:17 am
@papaown-15: CAB, Willievz and a few others will disagree with mallet..
Ive been saying it for a while, his consistency is why I reckon…
15 Sep 2012, 09:18 am
out to the pub to watch the game… enjoy..
15 Sep 2012, 09:19 am
To all the Farmers: May you live to fight another day.
15 Sep 2012, 09:20 am
Trying to decide – who’s the real camera *****? Bryan Habana or Israel Dagg
15 Sep 2012, 09:20 am
Hope Goosen gets 50 minutes. . . . .time to make the number 10 his for the next 10years
15 Sep 2012, 09:21 am
Ashwin, NZ’s dummy runners creates soo much indecision from defenders and it creates space!
15 Sep 2012, 09:21 am
@papaown-15: Mallet stating the obvious, yet I know there are those who disagree. Find that weird.
@poppa69-14: The ultimate!
@CSI:Rugby-17: Me 2.
How is it that ones head knows the probable outcome, but ones heart (regardless of how fuckedupthecoachis)refuses to give up all hope? It sucks being a fan.
15 Sep 2012, 09:21 am
@poppa69-19: Enjoy!
15 Sep 2012, 09:23 am
watch that fat fkerr mccunt he saving his best move for this game, gonna get a diving board out and swan dive into every ruck after that the ref is gonna pounce him and make out with him. in the papers gonna say he is revolutionazing the game hahahahahahh
15 Sep 2012, 09:23 am
Mitchell – Richie McCaw’s interview highlights how amped they are to play against the Boks, in fact I got goosebumps just listening to him!
15 Sep 2012, 09:25 am
HM’s interview- he said a lot of the Boks have over 50 caps but that’s no excuse…
WOW
Well done HM. GOSH
15 Sep 2012, 09:26 am
@papaown-15:
Only one to challenge him over the next few years imo is Felatau who plays for Wales.
Heaslip and the Italian are over the hill. The others are just not up to it at the moment.
15 Sep 2012, 09:27 am
Come Bokke.
Make my day.
15 Sep 2012, 09:28 am
@poppa69-19: What a good sport.
15 Sep 2012, 09:29 am
Let’s do this thing.
15 Sep 2012, 09:30 am
go bokke!!!!
moer hulle!
15 Sep 2012, 09:31 am
Pity Bekker is not starting.
15 Sep 2012, 09:31 am
Ashwim says Boks will win cos a hurt springbok is a dangerous Springbok team
Mallet says statistics don’t lie and they only have a 13% chance of winning so he’s going with the Blacks to win by 10
Mitchell says Hansen’s interview showed he’s under pressure to put in a complete performance so Blacks by 7+
Naas…non commital
15 Sep 2012, 09:31 am
NZ to win by 14
15 Sep 2012, 09:31 am
Let’s hope the lights stay on this time, otherwise there will be a…. BLACK OUT!
15 Sep 2012, 09:32 am
@Robzim-34: I think he’ll be brought on pretty early though. Our bench could really do something today……
15 Sep 2012, 09:33 am
Annah Mac wins the singing contest
15 Sep 2012, 09:33 am
Morning gents.
Blacks to win by 16+.
15 Sep 2012, 09:33 am
My blood is green.
Nothing like a Bokke/AB test match, despite us having little to no chance.
15 Sep 2012, 09:34 am
Sheesh hot chick singing nz anthem…. Goth look…. Nz athem … Aka i would like to fak yah
15 Sep 2012, 09:34 am
Goosebumps……fukkit man, can’t believe some folk hate the Haka.
15 Sep 2012, 09:34 am
Steyn already lining Nonu up there. Bring it on.
15 Sep 2012, 09:35 am
Look at the cannibals with their tongues… This kak should be banned
15 Sep 2012, 09:35 am
Difficult game to predict.
AB’s are by far the stronger team but there is no reason why bokke cannot win on the day.
Nice friendly haka today.
15 Sep 2012, 09:35 am
Ok so Frans Steyn is pumped. Just hope the rest of the mob are too.
15 Sep 2012, 09:36 am
@I am a stormer-47: @katman-44: Yeah loved Fransies stare back
15 Sep 2012, 09:36 am
@The Sharks rugby pedigree is packaged as dog food-43:
