RWC Final: All Blacks v Springboks
-
I'm picking the ABs by 13. I think the Boks have fluffed their way to the final off the back of some dodgy play and are there for the taking. We just have to make sure we don't fall into the trap of playing a forward oriented game.
Mark Telea, Beauden Barrett and Will Jordan will need to be on their game because we all know the Boks will kick a lot.
I'm picking the ABs and ASav to play the house down, with him winning World player of the year in the process.

One more game Sir Foz

@Canes4life looks like it will be raining again. There will be scrums.

Accuweather: Paris: Periods of cloud and sun with a couple of showers, mainly early on

Biggest question is whether we can win the territorial game with our average kickers. Based on the last 2 games we can be more that competitive in the forwards.
Have to say these short up and unders give me the sh-ts. Some of Englands were shocking
-
Wayne Barnes with the whistle I guess?

Never mind win the kicking game, let's hope for parity.... We have a score to settle after the 1995 final and the Twickenham game, it's the old enemy and we know them better than anyone, along with the fact it's the swan song for Fozzie and a bunch of veteran ABs. Come on boys, let's fuck them up!

Fascinated how THEGENIUS manages his 10s this week.
I think Manie starts again. And the party line is the wet suited Pollard better, cause he is used to it, thats why he came on early.

@rustycruiser doubt it. Faf to start as well. Excuse - he knows how to win finals 😬

Well fuck a duck.
Well done Fozzie. You have exceeded our expectations and in four years you have got this team just right.
Win or lose, it’s a great achievement.
Fuck the naysayers
Yeah, fuck me. In fact I dare you to do that one more time!

Would rather have been playing England.
Playing SA in the Final is all going to be about the Scrums,Line outs and probably the winning of the game will be with the boot and the battle of the Air.
The kicking and the battle of the air is my main worry where we could falter. -
All the concerns about the Springboks scrum, the ABs handling has been superb the last two tests so if they can keep handling errors to a minimum, they should have a steady enough platform to play off.
If ever there is a time for the kicking to come right, it's next week. We have a real good shot at this. But since it has worked to date, Foster is shit and the ABs are going to get smoked.
