That was some ask, asking the Baby Boks to beat NZ twice at Home to reach the final.
The semi was a different ball game to the pool game, where the Baby Boks after comprehensively dominating the set pieces in the pool game, had the tables turned at scrum time at stages in the semi.
This aspect was very disappointing and I could not help but feel that Wilco Louw not starting at 3 contributed to this, along with the loss of powerhouse hooker Marx.
That aside, the Baby Boks showed great composure to win the game in the end, with Pollard once again standing tall and Esterhuizen at 12 proving too powerful for the Baby Blacks.
The only disappointing player was Greef on the wing, this lad is far too passive and it was a great call getting rid of him early on as the guy was a liability. He needs to man up.....bloody hell at 105kg and plenty of pace, one would think he would be a force.......but the guy is a puppy.
My guess is that Dan Kriel will start on the wing with v/d Merwe hopefully on the bench ahead of Greef.
Its going to be a tough final against a physical and skilful England side.......England slaughtered Ireland in their semi
