The two best teams in the world hammering it out, with the Boks deservedly ahead at half time. Blimey, let's flick over and see what England are up to ...........
Hmmmm, eating lunch apparently. I guess they'll be on the way to setting the Aussies a formidable target. Or then again, possibly not, 😛

In the cricket, it's tea. England made more than I expected 181 all out. Aus need 280-something to win. This is also going to be interesting.
Disappointing. We looked good in part, but couldn't withstand the pressure. I've never seen Carter make so many loose kicks. If we play like that against Australia we'll lose again. So there it is, The Lions really were totally crap, and made us look brilliant. How depressing.
We're still not a bad team. But until we can curb the error rate, we're not the best. South Africa are that today. Hopefully we will be in a month or so.
And it looks like England's first day efforts are now a distant memory. Ah well, I'll go to bed now, and when I wake up it'll all have been a bad dream, 😛

Consistency of selection and coaches is starting to make the difference. They're not great yet - let's see if they can win away from home.
Can't believe we're still in this. We don't deserve to be. Still, a bonus point could prove useful, so hopefully we'll hang on to it.
As with last year, the result of the Tri Nations is going to depend on the bonus points. This competition is going to be a close run thing.
For those who reckon the ABs are the best rugby team in the world - just remind me when last they won the World Cup? I've forgotten 😏
