Thanks! Good team but for Libbok. If it's a tight game he does not have the temperament for the pressure situations.

I'm chuffed Libbok is playing for your Bok team this weekend, However if 10 minutes are left in the game and the scores are close, Rassie will bring Pollard on to slot a winning 3 pointer of a bomb squad scrum penalty.

We all know this gameplay by now, its a tried and tested winning formula.

I'm not sure how to read in to this one, are the Boks going to gang bang the English with backline running rugby or are we going to be gang banged with high ball kicks / up & under's?

In fact it does not matter, we are going to get nailed no matter the game plan.

You never know, your team is due a performance, maybe it's this weekend.
 
To mar such a team announcement by including Libbok, sies. Apart from him that is one helluva Bok team!

Jack van Poortvliet also back in the team. Surely not a coincidence that they both started against SA in the RWC semi final last year. Wonder if England plan on reverting to that template that nearly worked that evening.

Jack didn't. It was Mitchell and Care...

I don't think England can replicate the semi final tactics with this run on XV. Mitchell's box kicking was superb in that SF and Farrells tactical kicking as well. Marcus is more of a running 10 and a solid goal kicker but maybe not as efficient kicking for touch or kicking contestables. Jack has a good kicking game and fast pass. Got plenty gas too...

Expecting an absolute cracker!! I hope we get a career ending performance from the Boks. 20-25 winning margin that will see Borthwick fired and some of the, long in the tooth, English timber resigned to playing Club rugby for the rest of their careers.

What the English will be hoping for is a 1 score victory that keeps all and sundry happy till at least the 6 nations...
 
Gonna likely miss the game tomorrow .... can't be arsed going out to watch it somewhere and not paying Tnt for one match :confused: Oh well
