Springboks v All Blacks
-
Good team as expected. They've talked about Ardie needing to add a bit of bulk to be a starter, and that theory was proven right. He will get there, but right now Todd is the better option with Ardie upping the tempo in the final quarter.
Really looking forward to this match as despite how shit SA has been recently, they grow an extra foot at home so it should be a good challenge after the most one-sided RC of all time.

In the danger of lacking Aussie humility, this Bok side I don't think are capable of lifting. No matter where they play.
They are struggling for a playing identity and really don't have any go to plays or plans that can create opportunities.
You knew when the likes of JDV, Berger, etc were in the side that there was that capability at least to get something from nothing.
They really struggled last week to put away a bumbling Wallaby side. That's not down to poor form, but lack of plans and structures.
If ABs maintain the way they have played thus far (I think we have. A stronger team than last week), I see an AB victory by 15+.

Last week was woeful - sat back and watched the Aussies run at them. When one off runners make yards all day, you know you have issues.

Garces and Barnes; clueless on what constitutes a forward pass.
-
If Read finds ALB it's try time... damn.
-
ABs creating heaps of half breaks and chances.
-
ABs making all the play, not the usual onslaught to weather that you normally get in SA. Steyn kicking from hand so far has been poor. Fuck he's one dimensional.

FFS hold the ball.
