Springboks Rolling

South Africa went to 3-0 in the Tri Nations after another impressive victory. This time they beat Australia 29-17. It was another deserved victory and the Springboks look well on their way to taking the Tri Nations. The Wallabies fell to 0-2, despite getting off to a perfect start. They got a try within the first two minutes and converted it to take a 7-0 lead. The Springboks responded with three quick penalties, but Australia pulled a drop kick back to take a 10-9 lead. South Africa responded with two more penalties and to take a 15-10 lead. They have kicked an enormous amount of penalties during the competition. Then, they got their only try of the game as they took advantage of some sloppy play by the Wallabies. They added another penalty before the break to take a 23-10 lead at the half. The second half was a much better performance from Australia and they scored the only try of the half. However, two penalties from the Springboks allowed for another comfortable win. South Africa has not even conceded a bonus point in this tournament. The Springboks are now done with their home matches, but have put themselves in a very commanding position.
