Finn trying to play miracle catch up rugby already. The whole point of Laidlaw is to stop him being any more mental than absolutely necessary.

How much longer can Toony tolerate Russel's own half nonsense? That was almost a SA try.

I think Hastings could over take him sooner than we think.

It's clearly the game plan to kick it in behind. It's GT directed.

Great skills by Jones there.

Yep, Put Finn on when chasing the game in the last 10, but Hastings is what you want if you’re trying not to lose.

Ps yyyyeeeeeessssssss!

Get Hastings on. Finn throws a loopy pass in his own 22 to his own man, isolated, turned over, recycle and score for SA. All after equalising 7-7 and successfully fielding the restart. Why would you do that? In what universe?

Why isn't the back/no.8 coming and taking that?

So you want Hogg off then? It was his pass.

Can someone not put the head on him in a ruck and at least get him off the pitch for a few minutes?

It looked like Finn - whoever threw it needs a word in their ear. We just happen to have an able replacement for Russell on the bench.

Hogg is wearing bright green boots. Was definitely him.

On second viewing it was indeed Hogg, apologies. Absolutely atrocious. In what universe is that the first choice play?

They look bamboozled by the blitz defence.

Yeah it's him. Can we not hire an 'exits' coach? And a psychologist... and a new defence coach...?

Jesus, cotter calls that long despite Wilson through his lifters or his fault not getting off the ground. Pretty harsh to call that long.

Superb chase on that kick from Maitland. Needs to happen EVERY time. They'll spill it eventually.

And a lineout coach while you're at it...

This should be set up for a Horne drop goal. Instead we are working our way to our own goal.

Pathetic game management.
