Habana signalled a return to his best form and has been one of the outstanding players of the season, displaying impressive form for both the Springboks and the Stormers after an uncharacteristic drop of form in both 2010 and 2011.
Against the Wallabies, Habana's hat-trick made him the highest try-scoring Springbok against the Wallabies with nine tries (surpassing Breyton Paulse's seven tries) and extending his try-scoring record as the highest-scoring Springbok of all time to 46 tries (next best is Joost van der Westhuizen with 38).
Here's what Sport24 readers had to say about Habana's brilliant performance:
"Habana hat-trick, I salute you mate!" - Sean
"Habana you beauty!" - John.s.Beckett.1954
"Habana is weer kookwater." - Jacobus Rautenbach
"Habana was pure class!" - Michaele James
"Brian Habana ke bosso!" - Karabo Mokgojwa
"I give Bryan Habana and Francois Louw a 10 for their performance." - Common Sense
"Habana would definitely make the All Blacks team too." - GlenKeesing
"Please don't ever say Habana is a 'quota' player again. He deserves to be there." - shaun.neveling.9

"Great performances by Frans Louw; Adriaan Strauss & Habana." - W.J.58726
