England v Springboks

Very difficult to get excited about this match as it appears that it will be a dour affair as both sides were poor over the weekend. England will win and only because they will take their kicks at goal when in the opponents half unlike the Boks who think that they can win every line out and set up tries, (you cant if you have Bismark Du Plessis in your team) as he does not know the rules as yet. Scotland to give the All Blacks a close game.

The English won't be at their peak yet, if saturdays loss to Iteland was a motivation thing then the boks could hump them

I might buy a Bok shirt and try and get a ticket

I think Joao Whatsamatta can sometimes get tickets.

Or maybe the paddy power cup a better option ?
Always fancied Cheltenham

I am going to miss the 2nd half of the match as I will be on my way to Murrayfield to watch the mighty Scotland team give the All Blacks carrots.

Looks like Meyer has seen the same game as I did! Hendricks and Hougaard benched for JP and Reinach! 2 Sharks brought in for both under performing players that some did not see! :whistle: Also Lambie in for Pollard, Schalk/Mohjoe and Strauss for Bismark. Scrum left alone except for the 1 change at flank. Meyer learning, when all else fails go back to the Sharks and Pat in particular!

duh, craig. Go back to the Sharks? It was a Sharks player that cost us points when in their 22 by going into the side.

1down!LOL

Good to see that he has dropped du Plessis as he has cost SA two matches this year alone. Like the look of the scrum half as he can break very quickly and is not shy to put in a tackle or two. The best flank forward playing in Japan, born and bred in the Cape obviously, will give us the edge around the fringes. SA just must take points when they are on offer otherwise it will be the same match result as last week.
