    So seeing as though you respect me, I thought I'd grace you with the first comment

    I'm really interested to see how Meyer selects our squad. There is a lot of fresh talent floating around in our country so does he opt to try and build a young team of talent (building for the next WC), go with some youth, some experience or does he go the traditional way of choosing way to many oldies?

    I agree. This talk of bring Matfield out of retirement must stay just that, talk. It is time to blood the youngsters!

    Drove past Victor test driving a Ferrari California on the William Nichol yesterday... Whatever job is on offer, the package must be awesome.

    I don't know. England look like a team on the up. Sure, some of the rugby in 6 nations was horrible, but England definetly plays for the jersey, and they really play like a team.

    I also think the English will be no walkover.

    I am thinking we might take all 3 games but only one by more than 8

    We must all remember to create a SuperBru group for this

    I wasn't suggesting this would be easy, rather that we can and should win these games...

    After watching Ruan Pienaar's performance for Ulster in the Heineken Cup semi-final, the coach must be thinking of bringing him back as one of the scrumhalves.

    Pity their contracts could prevent any/most Northern hemisphere based players from playing against England in June.
