Springboks (15) 18 / All Blacks (5) 5 (Final Score)The South African Springboks hosted the New Zealand All Blacks at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, Port Elizabeth at 17:05 SA Time. This was the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1, SHD & M-Net on TV in SA. Although the Springboks did not score a try, Morné Steyn’s boot was the difference… and all the Springboks worked hard enough, to really deserve the win! The passion was back in the faces, the focus narrowed, the set phases were good and the breakdown battle was won by the Springboks. All Blacks (17) 30 / Wallabies (0) 14 (Final Score)The New Zealand All Blacks hosted the Australian Wallabies at Eden Park, Auckland at 09:35 SA Time. This was the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast live on SuperSport 1, SHD & M-Net on TV in SA. The All Blacks sailed to a commanding lead early on against a Wallaby side which was unusually error-prone. In the second half the Wallabies tried hard but it was always going to be nigh on impossible to come back from so far behind.
At the centre of the storm is Springbok coach, Peter de Villiers. Herewith the Super Rugby team sheets for the 2 finalists of Super Rugby 2011.
