Springboks v All Blacks

I think it has to be borne in mind that after the first half the Bokke defence was as porous as Swiss cheese: http://www.planetrugby.com/news/analysis-south-africas-40-missed-tackles/

Going to be interesting to see how selections evolve over the next couple of years ,
I cant recall an era where its just so hard to pin point a weakness in our game ,
Right now , with our run on side I guess you would say goalkicking is possibly it
don't worry bro, Eddie knows our weaknesses, he just aint willing to share them for fear we sort them out before we face England in 2018!

sure we're so far in front in recent games that it hasn't mattered at all - but goalkicking is a definite weakness, not a possible one. barrett is a great player, but what did he hit off the tee, 5 from 9 or something? that's shithouse, he looked shithouse doing it, some of them were easy kicks, and conditions were not an issue.
at least getting to kick 9 conversions a week is plenty of opportunity to practice so it shouldn't be a weakness for long.
