South Africa’s B team have come up trumps in a wet and slippery Perth, with the world champions scoring four tries to nil to secure a 30-12 win over the injury-hit Wallabies . In a Rugby Championship match blighted by periods of driving rain, the Wallabies only trailed 11-9 at halftime in front of 58,197 fans at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. But the Springboks piled on three tries from rolling mauls in the second half to secure the bonus-point victory.
Noah Lolesio’s third-minute penalty got the Wallabies on the board early. But they gave up field position a minute later when Andrew Kellaway tried to catch a bullet kick, only for it to slip through his fingers and go into touch. Wallabies winger Marika Koroibete’s attempted chip and chase would have led to a South Africa try if not for Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu’s fumble with the try line in sight.
