On Saturday, the Boks were ultimately outplayed against the All Blacks, although there were several debatable officiating decisions along the way.
In particular, the TMO made a strange call to deny Cheslin Kolbe a try in the first half, while there were a number of other marginal calls that went the way of the home side.
