The Springboks have taken control of the series after another huge victory over the All Blacks, but how did they manage to win a game in which New Zealand enjoyed more possession, more carries and more line breaks?
Jean de Villiers, Schalk Burger and the team break down the key moments that decided the Test, from the Boks’ brutal scrum and maul dominance to Rassie Erasmus’ perfectly timed substitutions and the All Blacks’ growing set-piece problem. They also head back into Controversy Corner to dissect the biggest refereeing flashpoints from another fiercely contested encounter.
Plus, with one final Test still to come in Baltimore, the guys ask what is really at stake for the Springboks, whether New Zealand can find an answer to South Africa’s greatest weapon, and what it would mean for this Bok side to finish the series 3-1.
