Thanks for tuning in to Sport24's Live Updates from today's Springbok Test

Be sure to visit www.sport24.co.za on Monday for all the reaction to the Boks latest defeat

Night all!

29 Nov 2014

GOOD DAY FOR THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE

Wales beat the Boks 12-6

England beat the Wallabies 26-17

Ominous heading into the RWC?

29 Nov 2014

And there's that AWFUL line again!

"Better to have happened today and not at the RWC"...

29 Nov 2014

HEYNEKE MEYER ON JEAN DE VILLIERS

"I hope he can come back" and "hope he can be back for the World Cup."

29 Nov 2014

Heyneke Meyer now talking - praises Wales as a "great side"

Seriously?

29 Nov 2014

Jean de Villiers' knee injury looked serious - a 6-month out the game kind of serious

Time to call on Juan de Jongh?

Victor Matfield to assume the captaincy?

29 Nov 2014

SuperSport in-studio guests all making excellent points

Heyneke Meyer's team selections being called in question - and rightly so!

29 Nov 2014

EBEN ETZEBETH - ONE OF THE BOKS' BETTER PLAYERS
<strong>EBEN ETZEBETH - ONE OF THE BOKS' BETTER PLAYERS</strong><br />

29 Nov 2014

Lots of debate on the yellow card.

Hopefully former ref Jonathan Kaplan will clarify during the week

29 Nov 2014

Nick Mallett ranting in-studio, talking about "schoolboy errors" - lovely to hear!

29 Nov 2014

WORTH REMEMBERING

This isn't a great Wales side, and the Boks were fortunate 31-30 winners in mid year and even luckier to win the last time the teams clashed in Wales

29 Nov 2014

Naas Botha "extremely disappointing"

"Never looked like scoring"...

29 Nov 2014

Would be very easy to say "it was a long season", "one Test too many"

Truth is the All Blacks played the same number of matches - and finished strong.

29 Nov 2014

For those of you who were LUCKY enough for Eskom to cut your power during the match, seriously DON'T bother watching the highlights - there weren't any!

29 Nov 2014

My oath the Boks have plenty to work on!

Awful against Ireland

Better against England

Average at best against Italy

Dreadful against Wales

Next 10 months until the 2015 Rugby World Cup should be interesting to say the least!

29 Nov 2014

80' - Comical scenes to bring an end to the Test as Handre Pollard throws a forward pass to Willie le Roux (who doesn't drop the ball this time)

Game over.

29 Nov 2014

***WALES HAVE BEATEN THE SPRINGBOKS 12-6 AT THE MILLENNIUM STADIUM IN CARDIFF***

29 Nov 2014

80' - Into injury time now...

29 Nov 2014

IN OTHER NEWS

FULL-TIME: England 26-17 Australia

29 Nov 2014

80' - Look for Willie le Roux to get a 2/10 in Sport24 chief writer Rob Houwing's post match ratings piece...

29 Nov 2014

79' - Wales No 10 DAN BIGGER gets the nod as the man of the match

Probably well deserved...

29 Nov 2014

79' - His second knock on under no pressure in the matter of seconds.

That pretty much seals Wales' second ever win over the Boks

29 Nov 2014

79' - My gosh Willie le Roux WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?

29 Nov 2014

79' - Boks bumble at the scrum and Wales turn it over and kick downfield

29 Nov 2014

78' - The last few moments sum up how woeful both the Boks and Wales have been of late

Literally ANYTHING could happen in the dying stages

29 Nov 2014

77' - Chance for the Boks as they win a penalty and kick for touch

But they miss touch!

But hang on, Wales in an attempt to keep it in field knock it dead

5m scrum to the Boks!

29 Nov 2014

76' - The Boks clear well from inside their own 22m

But will need to get their hands on the ball should theyw ish to pull this Test out of the fire

29 Nov 2014

75' - Wales all over the Boks who are forced to defend after turning over the ball, but Wales knock on through Bigger.

Crucial mistakes from both sides.

Two sides WAAAAAAY off their best form

29 Nov 2014

73' - Penalty to the Boks - and Schalk Brits doing commentary says they were "very lucky"

Another thumbsuck from the referee...

29 Nov 2014

72' - Scrum goes through the 90 degree angle

Turnover ball. Well done Boks...

29 Nov 2014

71' - 5m attacking scrum to Wales

Do or die for the Boks here...

Can't wait to hear Nick Mallett's post-match thoughts!

29 Nov 2014

70' - Worth remembering that the All Blacks trailed the Welsh with 10 minutes to play - and ended up winning 34-16...

29 Nov 2014

70' - Drop goal attempt by Dan Bigger fails to even reach the tryline BUT huge mistake by Willie le Roux who knocks it on under no pressure!

Shocking Springboks, shocking!

29 Nov 2014

69' - All going wrong here for the Boks.

Too many new faces on the park, too soon

Eben Etzebeth the next to depart, replaced by Lood de Jager

29 Nov 2014

68' - The Boks still within a converted try of taking the lead, but made a MASSIVE blunder from replacement Francois Hougaard!

29 Nov 2014

66' - Referee stops the game for Leigh Halfpenny to receive treatment for a head knock. Off he goes...

29 Nov 2014

65' - Lucky escape for the Springboks on their own tryline

Could've been game, set and match had Wales scored

29 Nov 2014

63' - Irish referee John Lacey is going cop some serious criticism this week I suspect...

29 Nov 2014

62' - YELLOW CARD!

A ridiculous call as Hendricks is sent to the sin-bin. Both he and Halfpenny competed for the ball. Shocking decision.

29 Nov 2014

62' - TMO DECISION

The referee has gone upstairs for potential foul play. Bok wing Cornal Hendricks and Wales fullback Leigh Halfpenny both went up for a high ball.

29 Nov 2014

62' - Immediately, Hougaard is slow behind the base as he gets caught by a Welsh forward.

29 Nov 2014

61' - BOK SUB: Reinach off, replaced by Hougaard.

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
