Australia v South Africa: Rugby Championship Test – live! (The Guardian)

Minute-by-minute report: The Wallabies are hoping to get back to winning ways but face stiff competition in the guise of the world champion Springboks.

“After a tough two weeks in Argentina we’re extremely pleased to be able to welcome a few men back into the mob,” Rennie said during the week. He is in a good mind set and we expect him to control the game and implement the plan.” “He is a good young man and played a lot of footy for us, played against the All Blacks, the English, the French. The remainder of this Championship will be a major test of Australia’s depth. A kick in behind secures territory and the Springboks are happy to concede a drop out. And there’s intrigue on the bench too with the trademark 6-2 ‘bomb squad’ shaken up in favour of an extra back. It’s a drive that lacks precision and the Springboks muscle the ball back and kick clear to touch. White is up in support quickly, gets to the ruck, two passes later and McReight squirms through two tacklers to cross next to the posts! There was collateral damage in the Wallaby camp after the trip to South America. The Springboks are then penalised for failing to deliver their first lineout in a straight line. 21 mins: Attacking scrum to South Africa on the left and they earn a penalty before de Klerk spins the ball infield. 6 mins: Australia are determined to keep the ball alive in open play, but they risk inviting the proactive South African defence onto them.

Australia vs South Africa LIVE: Rugby Championship score after ... (The Independent)

The Wallabies and Springboks meet in Adelaide looking to bounce back from defeats last time out.

Not straight from Joseph Dweba, who has a growing patch of red on the top of his shirt and will require some attention. South Africa will go for goal from 15 metres in on the Wallabies’ ten-metre. Australia 10-0 South Africa, 11 minutes An awkward bounce has Marika Koroibete rather interested on the chase, but Damian de Allende gets back into position, sitting down White with a bump to ensure he can then boot his own clearing kick up field. Remarkable work from the openside, hurrying back to spear the ball within a couple of metres of the line and save Australia from what looked a certain score. Australia 10-0 South Africa, 15 minutes South Africa beginning to build back into this game. Faf de Klerk can’t quite gather De Jager’s offload cleanly after a fine tackle from Reece Hodge. Australia 10-0 South Africa, 23 minutes [coach Jacques Nienaber](/sport/rugby/wales-south-africa-wayne-pivac-b2124865.html) said: “The players rested well on the plane, and everyone is excited to be in Australia and looking forward to our two Tests against the Wallabies. Scrum-half Kerr-Barlow is eligible after World Rugby changed rules around international representation - having been born in Melbourne and having not played for the All Blacks since 2017. So far in the tournament, both teams have won one match and lost the other in what is shaping up to be the tightest championship in years.

Boks are warming up now, Nche and De Jager carrying well after Am chips over the top, before McReight (again) somehow comes up with a turnover on his own ...

It feels hard to back an Australia win, even with that home record, with no Quade Cooper or Samu Kerevi or Michael Hooper around. As for the Wallabies, Noah Lolesio - who, if we're being kind, has been hot and cold - needs the Test of his young life. Faf de Klerk's return at scrum-half, starting ahead of of Jaden Hendrikse, may help in that regard, but the loss prompted some questions - you can tell because Rassie Erasmus's Twitter account has been quiet since. Let's start with a point you hopefully find as fascinating as myself - South Africa's record in Australia is atrocious. Maybe that will change this morning, although both sides are coming off defeats in Round 2 to Argentina and New Zealand respectively. Morning everyone, a double bill of Rugby Championship action coming up over the next few hours. But, the Wallabies rally, McReight forcing a turnover before Australia clear. No such issues for the Wallabies from that restart, securing the ball, a quick dart before White clears. Damian de Allende, 11. South Africa, from the resulting penalty, want another five-metre scrum. A bit closer this time, kept low, but wide of the left post. 40 mins - Australia 10-3 South Africa

'Softest yellow card of year' leaves star laughing (Wide World of Sports)

Rugby Championship 2022: Springboks halfback Faf de Klerk was left laughing after he was sent off for "one ...

"You are trying to go for the ball, but you've clearly got it wrong and struck someone directly in the face. I know you have got it wrong, but it is a yellow card." Sean Maloney added, "It will go down as one of the softest yellow cards of the year, no doubt." [Wallabies vs Springboks, All Blacks vs Pumas](https://wwos.nine.com.au/rugby/championship-2022-live-scores-round-3-wallabies-all-blacks-springboks-argentina-results-kick-off-time-latest-union-news-video-highlights/a9042747-9c79-40ea-b851-271776cb903e) Springboks halfback Faf de Klerk was left laughing after he was sent off for what Stan Sport commentator Sean Maloney described as "one of the softest yellow cards of the year." The Wallabies No.9 collapsed to the ground after the contact to his face, prompting referee Paul Williams to draw the yellow card.

Koroibete stars as Wallabies down Springboks (The Sydney Morning Herald)

How do you sell rugby to an Aussie rules heartland? A man named Marika Koroibete, highlight reel try-savers and ball-playing giants make for a good start.

The Springboks endured their own 10-minute stint with 14 men after scrumhalf Faf de Klerk was shown a yellow card for making contact to the head of Wallabies counterpart Nic White. Even when they were a man down with Tom Wright sent to the sin-bin, they repelled wave after wave of the Springboks’ attacking raids. There were moments it felt as though the Wallabies were just hanging on. It was a cover tackle good enough to rival George Gregan’s famous effort against the All Blacks in Sydney in 1994. But the fact they took that lead into the sheds at half-time was perhaps even more remarkable. A win over Argentina was followed by a forgettable night in San Juan.

Wallabies freak brings down world champions (Wide World of Sports)

The Wallabies have continued their incredible home records over the Springboks, winning 25-17 in Adelaide.

"It was a tough tour in Argentina. I'm just happy that I'm one of his teammates, not opposing him." It's just about consistently performing and that's probably our biggest challenge now is to back that effort up next week in Sydney." I was lucky enough to make a try-saving tackle today." Pretty disappointing the way we finished over there. That came courtesy of Noah Lolesio, who burst through a gap in the opposition line off the back of a Slipper pass, passing out the back of the hand to McReight. "Test match rugby, it's built on big moments. A sensational sequence of play in the 57th minute saw McReight cross the line for a second time. It was one-way traffic from the outset as flanker McReight crossed the line to make it 7-0 just a minute into the game. But to come here in front of an Adelaide crowd, Adelaide stadium, very proud of the effort we put in." And normally the team that wins goes well in those big moments and we had quite a few in the back end of the first half. "We had one man down, we had to cover the short side and the other side as well.

Rugby Championship: Five takeaways from Australia v South Africa ... (planetrugby.com)

Following a 25-17 victory for Australia over South Africa in the Rugby Championship, here's our five takeaways from the match in Adelaide.

South Africa are in a precarious place; another loss in a week’s time and make no mistake, the pressure with be on Jacques Nienaber to a level he’s rarely experienced. Sure, there’s some tweaking to do, but Australia are in a better place than they were after the series loss to England. Lolesio isn’t the finished article yet, but he’s young and the best prospect Australia have and they need to stick with him. Over the last couple of weeks, Australia’s midfield has been dreadful in terms of game control and it was left to Nic White to cover the duties of both nine and 10. The game has moved on in the last couple of years. Timing, execution and power combined to hammer the Springbok wing so far over the touchline that one half expected referee Paul Williams to raise his arms for a six as Mapimpi was thrown over the boundary line.
