Hours after New Zealand’s proud reaction, South Africa also erased their slump from last week with an easy (8-24) win in Australia on Saturday. Jack Nynapper’s men also picked up an attacking bonus point thanks to four tries, to just one for the Australians.
Coming into Saturday’s win in Sydney, the Aussies have won just one of their last ten games in the city, a cursed place for them.
Within two minutes, the Australian team was half down
Matt Phillips (0-7, 9th) was sent off with a yellow card for the Springboks after a quick try from three-quarter center Damien de Allende worsened the scoreline just before Cannon broke the candle with Moodi. (age 19), he scored his maiden Test (3-12, 39th).
Returning from the locker room, the Boks immediately drove in a try from third row Franco Mostert (3-17, 42nd). Magasol Mabimbi allowed herself to take revenge on Australian Marika Koroipete. His stamp last weekend (3-24, 71st). A subsequent chambering and yellow card would end South Africa’s match early. At the end of the match (8-24, 79th over) Australia would reduce the score to an eventful try.
With this full card, the Springboks have secured their first win on Australian soil since 2013 and are level on points with rivals Argentina on the day, one point behind the All Blacks. So the last couple of days have been in suspense.
