    We will have to play a damn sight better than we did last week to win.

    If Lomax and de Groot hold up in the early scrums that will be a start.

    Maybe its just Gin and pessimism, but I'm going to go for worst case.

    All Blacks 17-12 on the back of a massive defensive effort against a 14-man Boks. One try in it with an interception by Havili finished off by Gear. Foster keeps his job.

    Fast forward 14 months to a RWC quarter final re-match where the AB's are knocked out and SA admit throwing this game to ensure Foster remained in charge.

    ABs to win this with pure heart. They'll play tighter, Richie and DH will kick a lot, as will JB. The set piece will be a bit shaky, but will be good enough.

    Forwards to play tight and run hard and straight. Cane to put someone on their arse early.

    Don't expect flashy backline moves from either team, but we will limit mistakes and chase kicks better than we have in recent times.

    Good guys to win 16-13

    What time are you going to bed? There's probably no point me asking as you're likely already sleeping. 😉

    I generally don't go to sleep until 1am/1:30am-ish so I just stay up and then try not to nod off before the game finishes.

    Damn thats late!

    I got my eyes shut by 10pm, bit restless but got 2 hours in the bank I reckon.

    Someone needs to go back through the list and pick up any fo the nostrildamus who picked an AB win. Not many.

    I did, but tentatively ... so much depended on the reffing and tight 5 effort.

    @nzzp I feel like most people have me on ignore, only way to explain picking a similar result after I've posted my score.

    19-16 ABs

    Not sure I believe myself but am not gonna pick the against

    I can count on the fingers of one hand AB matches that I expected us to lose.

    This was the fourth time I have ever expected us to lose.

    I've been wrong 3 of those times. (Last week was the only time I was right.)

    Still couldn't pick a losing score.

    @booboo I'd say I have expected us to lose 3 times, last night, last week and the 3rd Irish test.

    I hate that.

    I was hedging my bets... The key to being all knowing is being vague.

    So I've gone from this high to the low of having to watch the ABs on delay this week because I'll be attending a WAFL game with her daughter and her mates.

    My fucking brother is getting married on Saturday and I'm best man. My duties begin that day...at fucking kick off time.

    My speech probably won't go down well.

    @Bones bro, that’s when you get your phone out to watch the game and when they ask what are you doing, your simple response will be “I’m working on the best man speech”

    @Bones Have to question said brother's continued possession of NZ card. Did he not check the itinerary before approving fiance's request for date?
