With the horseshit spouted by the English commentators, Eddie, Hartley and Daly is Alistair Campbell on board with England?
Listening to the commentary team, you'd think England were winning this comfortably.
-
@antipodean I guess they need to make it palable for the home crowd. Just stop the cheerleading and commentate on the game is what I say.
-
I know I bang on about the quality of refereeing, but this game is dreadful. I feel sorry for any nation that has Mathieu Raynal. He makes O'Keefe look like referee of the year.

Flanker Siya Kolisi will become South Africa's first black Test captain in the three-match series against England next month.
-
@kiwimurph Good decision. He's been good for the Sharks and along with du Preez, easy selection for the Boks.
-
@antipodean Kolisi plays for the Stormers. But yes - well deserved - he's been a very good player for a long time. Seems like a top bloke too.

What position does he play?

@hooroo err why?
because I thought he was a winger
Kolisi has over 100 Stormers caps and has played nearly 30 tests.....

Excellent. Good for him. Sounds as though he has enough experience to be captain.

Normally it would be Ireland, but Australia are now getting my pity support.
Definitely South Africa. I really want them to get past the quota era, really hoping their players whatever their colour are now good enough and their coach can coach without one hand behind his back and one eye on the daggers.Wales v Arg, I don't mind. Probably leaning Argentina for SANZAAR reasons.

Neither, SA, Argentina.

i just hope all 3 series go to a decider (yes, that includes us dropping a game). Wait, 4, i guess Wales v Argentina will count.
I kinda want Ireland to roll the Aussies as i like the idea of us not being favourites at the next World Cup. But then if the Aussies get done up 0-3 it might be the absolute death of Australian rugby.
World rugby needs the Boks to be a force, so be nice to see them get up. No one needs a strong England, so watching Eddies chariot continue to roll off the road would be pretty funny.
Be nice to see the Frogs turn up and show something.
Argentina absolutely need to show something v Wales.
