By the end of 2014

The ABs will still be FN champs on the basis of beating the Aussies in Oz ....but the Boks will split the NZ series. England will win the  6N

Japanese based Boks are no longer regarded as foreign based

There will be talk of PS playing flank at the RWC

JJ will be a wing again

Goosen will be injured

Lambie will declare he only wants to play flyhalf, after a year at fullback

The scrum laws will be changed again

Fiji will win the Olympic gold medal

Richie McCaw retires and there are many calls for Carter to do the same

Mike Phillips is late for 5 Welsh practices

Cooper resuscitates his career with a good year end tour

Dave publishes 317 Bok squads

JW gets voted poster of the year

Bismarck wins the IRB player of the year

The site crashes 29 more times but rises like a Phoenix to dominate Bok rugby chat

Interesting forecast,  but I will add a few more.

The Springboks will find a suitable center to replace Fourie who will equal his defence and show ability to attack as well

A replacement flyhalf for the back-up flyhalf of Stade Francais would be found. 

Pieter-Steph  du Toit and Etzebeth will be the top lock combination in the world.

Sloth Alberts will be even fatter, slower and more useless  than he was last  year. 

Beeno

I think the center position will only become clearer through Super 15 - but the choices will likely be between De Allende. Hanekom or Jordaan

The flyhalf position will also be determined in Super 15 and the choices will be between Goosen, Lambie or Swiel   

Mozart

Jordaan missed  one tackle on Fruean and in the same game made 5 tackles on the same player in the same game and now suddenly he must wince.  Funny peculiar - that one. 

Japanese based Boks are no longer regarded as foreign based (They are mostly hasbeens anyway)

There will be talk of PS playing flank at the RWC (O Gonna, no man!)

Jean will retire (Should do, better to go when the going is still good than to do an O'dricoll)

JP will become too slow for international rugby (Can he become slower? - maybe he needs to go to flank)

JJ will be a wing again (Good, how do you know this..?)

Goosen will be injured (He is a plastic model that one he needs calcium)

Lambie will declare he only wants to play flyhalf, after a year at fullback (Too much is made of this boy he is not as good as the media makes him to be)

The scrum laws will be changed again (Only if the All Blacks can convince Paddy)

Fiji will win the Olympic gold medal (Yes, they can - but careful now - what happened at 7 - RWC)

Richie McCaw retires and there are many calls for Carter to do the same (RM is a great player, but like all players age is not a curable sickness - weg is jy)

Mike Phillips is late for 5 Welsh practices (Only 5?)

Cooper resuscitates his career with a good year end tour (Cooper at his best is one of the worlds best and most unpredictable 10s - not even he knows what he is going to do next)

Dave publishes 317 Bok squads (Los my Daddy fokken uit - OK)

JW gets voted poster of the year (We need them here to - he fills the void so to say)

Bismarck wins the IRB player of the year (Stupid fool - he will get awarded for most brain-dead player)

The site crashes 29 more times but rises like a Phoenix to dominate Bok rugby chat (Why? What makes the crashing? )

 Stock markets throughout the world will rebound with the NYSE leading the charge

The Ozzie $ will plummet to 85c US

James O Connor will return to Ausralia as an adult

Morne Steyn will be left out of the Bok YE squad

The AB's will retain the RC but only just

The ANC will win the elections with a reduced majority

Pres Zuma will be recalled

JuJu wil be locked up

JJ will end up as a wing off the bench

The Sharks to beat The Chiefs in the S15 final

This site would have doubled it's membership

Bryce Lawrence to be honoured for his services to refereeing

LOL

Denny

Talking of the Queen's Honours List- is it true that New Zealand nominated Poite to be given an OBE for his services to New Zealand Rugby?
