💨 Abstract

The New Zealand media heavily criticized the All Blacks following their record 43-10 loss to the Springboks. Former captain Kieran Read faulted the team for lacking “spine” and leadership, especially in the face of the Springboks' late try-scoring spree. The South African team, led by inspirational captain Siya Kolisi, unified and dominated, prompting widespread condemnation of the All Blacks' performance from NZ media.
