I guess the folks in Australia are quite excited at the prospect of native rugby player Jarryd Hayne being a star in the NFL. One of their sportswriters liveblogged the game - link to blog and an excerpt below!

Boom! Kaepernick pulls the trigger and smokes a bullet to ... oh, nobody. We go again, on the Vikings’ 22. And Carlos Hyde, he’s everywhere, Carlos. He scoots left and he’s over the gain line thingo. And there’s more flags. And there’s another five-yard penalty. And the Niners could end up with a touchdown just from penalties.
Second down. Nine yards to get. They pick up five through a wide ball to McDonald, a huge man, he’s 6ft 8in, can run the hundred in 10 seconds, an impressive human. Kaepernick! He fakes. He fakes again. He runs. And makes 12 yards with a slide onto the ground. Penalty, heap of flags. D-men holding, you can’t do that if you don’t want to give up five yards. Here come the Niners.
Okay. Niners ball, they lead by seven points because they scored a touchdown and the Vikings did not. QB Kaepernick has the ball and he gives it to Carlos Hyde, he’s my MVP, lot of running. Niners still with the ball, it’s their turn to have a crack. They need to go one yard which they do through that man, my man, the Hyde Man. And Jimmy Tomsula waves his hand in the air like he’s lassooing something, a steer, perhaps, or a Viking. Ha. Okay - Hayne Plane! sorry. Go son. He gets them to within one yard.
