To give the boks their due, they nailed the OZ backline time after time and even Toutai Kefu got hammered.
If Gregan had taken a few of the penalties as kicks the result might have been different. Going for broke is one thing, but moderation is the key. And we can't afford to lose our lineouts so regularly. Methinks that we need a replacement to fill the gaps left by John Eales if we're to have any chance at the world cup.
And perhaps we have too many League converts in the side, who seem to be out of position too often, can't kick, and turn the ball over too often when tackled. League and Union really are two very different games.

White powdery substance
Springbok rugby practice was delayed nearly two hours today after a player
reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the practice field.
Head coach Strauli immediately suspended practice while police and federal
investigators were called to investigate.
After a complete analysis, Scotland Yard forensic experts determined that
the white substance unknown to players was the try line. Practice was
resumed after special agents decided the team was unlikely to encounter the
substance again.
