Springboks benefit as Wallabies lack cutting edge

South Africa back up their victory against New Zealand with another strong defensive effort to beat Australia, but their performance posed as many questions as answers.

Match Commentary

81'		23-12 End of second half
80'		South Africa will be glad of the victory, but again they'll lament handling errors and basic mistakes. The Wallabies will also feel they left points on the pitch, but their performance will do little to quell those who want the end of Michael Cheika as Australia coach.
80'		The game fades out to nothing with a final scrum that takes more than one minute to set. The siren sounds, and Handre Pollard kicks the ball high into the stands.
