They actually showed non-wallaby games live on free to air in Australia? Wow, how far the game has dwindled over there.

The game was amateur back then so it was pretty easy to have the game on free to air television. Even in South Africa it used to be on free to air until 1996 when professionalism emerged.

@@theultimatesharpshooter6734 And it ruined the sport. The smart thing was to have allowed semi-professionalism, meaning top players could be sponsored by advertisers, but not paid to play directly. Most would have had to keep their day jobs, but the top players would have been working as advertising promoters.

the boks were outplayed for most of the game, suspect the AB's took the foot off the gas in the last 10 & fatigue from altitute took its till, to their credit the boks scored 2 late tries to flatter the scoreline

Took you 24 YEARS to win your 2nd World Cup. So you can not say that the boks would not have won the 87 and 91 World cups. They probably could have. The fact of the matter is that the all blacks just are not that good anymore. They are not that feared team anymore.
