The Springbok set up a great chance of taking the Rugby Championship title in the 5th round against Argentina away.  We look at which players performed on both sides, dive into the absolute disaster of a second test for the Wallabies and look at which Springboks should tour next week. We both disagree on the Willie le Roux yellow card and Shaun is unhappy with World Rugby’s ’No Stoppages’ plan.

Kooks highlights the importance of a Grand Slam tour in November and he hits Shaun with a ’Pop Quiz’
