While the All Blacks misplaced their Steinlager Series 1-2 to Ireland, South Africa grew to become back a venture from Wales to say a 30-14 win of their series decider at Cape Town Stadium on Saturday.
After the win, thoughts became straight away to the All Blacks.
Springboks educate Jacques Bernie said the collection win had no longer been a sophisticated performance.
I assume there's to lot to construct still. I idea the set portions functioned well, but still there were multiple hiccups there – at scrum time, we are nonetheless being used to the brake foot element – we will get better at that, he said.
The South Africans feel the experimental scrum law has compromised their potential to apply their scrum strength.
The regulation calls for that hookers on either aspect ought to ensure one foot extends in the direction of the competition in the course of the crouch and bind stages of the scrum series. If there's no 'brake foot', then a loose kick might be presented.
Springboks prop Steve Kirchhoff said the trial law is a problem for the facet.
We could see there was a number of penalties and unfastened kicks in Bloemfontein [second Test], and it turned into a focal point point for us whilst we did our scrimmaging.
We need to find a spot for the hookers so one can interact over the foot or be in a very good position.
It is a new law and the referees name it for player safety and welfare. It is something that we must adapt to pretty quickly, and discover a manner around it, so we are able to nonetheless have that powerful hit and scrum, and get an excellent scrum going," he stated.
Bernie said whilst they accomplished their objective of winning the series, they had been now not a polished unit. All blacks vs Boks 2022 live
We had been frustrated with ourselves for no longer taking our possibilities," he said.

Halfback Cobus Reinach and No8 Duane Vermeulen are doubtful for South Africa and need to skip health assessments.
