The verdict· graded 29 Aug
South Africa beat New Zealand at DHL Stadium in the second Test on 29 August 2026.
The claim said the All Blacks would defeat the Springboks, but the recorded result was the opposite: South Africa won that second Test in Cape Town. Because the match was completed and the final score went against the prediction, the claim is false.

The verdict· graded 22 Aug
The All Blacks defeated the Springboks 33–16 on 2026-08-22 at Ellis Park in Johannesburg.
The claim got the winner wrong: it predicted a Springboks victory, but the All Blacks won instead. The date matched, but the result went the opposite way, with a 33–16 loss for South Africa.

The verdict· graded 22 Aug
New Zealand beat South Africa 33-16 at Ellis Park on 2026-08-22, a 17-point margin rather than two points.
The claim predicted a two-point margin, but the actual result was a 17-point New Zealand win. That means the speaker got the margin wrong, not just the winner.
