Ireland ran in four tries as they recorded their biggest winning margin ever over South Africa in the first of their three autumn internationals.
The 38-3 was Ireland's highest points total against the Springboks and their fifth win in seven games with them in Dublin.
Sport24 was less than impressed with the Boks latest dismal performance, giving these dismal player ratings:
Fullback: Andries Coetzee: 4.5
"The fullback’s now had 10 (appearances) this year, and it is high time to try someone else."
Wing: Dillyn Leyds: 4.5
"Looked uncertain in tackling/stopping terms and lost one ball forward in a thumping tackle on his modest frame."
Centre: Jesse Kriel: 4.5
"He also goes up too many blind alleys or runs out of space ... and lacked basic instinct in the area of drawing Irish defenders before offloading."
Centre: Damian de Allende: 3
"If he’s going to be remembered for just one thing (and there was little else) in this Test, it was his horrendously poor decision to kick ahead - and badly - with a promising, generous overlap waiting to be exploited in first half. Things didn’t get much better for a man who is an abject shadow of his former self. "
Wing: Courtnall Skosan: 3.5
"If he’s been a “bastion” this year, it’s mostly been of mediocrity ... and I’m afraid he even fell well short of that level in Dublin with a noticeably brittle display defensively. Weakness under the high bomb came home to roost; badly beaten to the one that opened Irish try count."
Fly-half: Elton Jantjies: 4.5
"Little that was too glaringly wrong ... but just such a callow-looking figure again in a spot that requires a reassuring “general”. Not an ideal northern-hemisphere pivot, and it showed."
Scrum-half: Ross Cronje: 4
"Ouch ... harrowing outing against big, wily opposite number Conor Murray. Tactical kicking near-awful: tended to either undercook or overdo them, and on this showing Boks will need to reconsider the nine shirt."
Number 8: Francois Louw: 5.5
"CJ Stander almost undoubtedly looked more comfortable in the No 8 berth, for the winning cause. That said, Louw again tried hard as a “fish out of water”."
Flanker: Pieter-Steph du Toit: 6
"Got around gallantly, often arriving to arrest trouble at crisis times."
Flanker: Siya Kolisi: 4
"Has been so good at open-side for much of 2017 ... but regrettably this was a near-shocker for him."
Lock: Lood de Jager: 5.5
"Struggled to be genuinely visible, but I thought he was one of the better Boks for honest, consistent industry just outside the main spotlight."
Lock: Eben Etzebeth: 5
"Looked as nonplussed as any team-mate at times, and his famed physicality stayed mostly in the shed. Some solid tackles on the retreat."
Prop: Coenie Oosthuizen: No rating
"Just back from a broken arm ... and off the luckless tighthead went on a stretcher even as some spectators were still finding their seats."
Hooker Malcolm Marx: 5
"What happened to the Newlands superstar against NZ? Disappointing come-down showing, even if basics were OK."
Prop Tendai Mtawarira: 4.5
"Nearing that 100th cap, but back to rank mediocrity for the Beast in this fixture after several decent Tests this year."
