Denny earlier started a thread on the match in Brisbane tomorrow and I will just summarize predictions already made and what other members think about the outcome:-


AO                    -     Australia       =  >10*

Denny               -     Australia       =     12

Draad               -      Australia       =      2*

Clevermike        -     SA                =      6

CC                    -     Australia        =     7

Xavi                  -     Australia        =     18

Bluebok            -     SA                  =      5


*   AO is vey vague - this type of forecast normally requires more accuracy,   Would help if this could be narrowed down to a figure between 7 and 10.   Draad said the Aussies to win by a skin - which normally implies a win by 1 to 3 points - so I put it at 2 points,


How about the forecast by other members?   That would really be welcomed.   I do not expect a forecast from Mozart - he is too big a coward to comment on this type of competition.   Pakie should do something too - like placing a pic with a score on site.   I suggest a pic of De Allende with a loss by 20 points as the outcome.

Pocock out has changed things for me. Suddenly the Auzzies are looking a little off balance, especially with all the positional changes including at the vital no.10 spot. I predicted our bench being very strong and possibly making a difference. It is a definite 50/50, but I'll go on my instinct, Boks by 5.

The Goats have had slow starts this season and this could be why Rassie selected his best players on the bench.

Thing is though, we found ourselves behind with our "best" players starting. We could find ourselves even further behind with the jokers he's decided to go with as a starting 15.

Rassie is desperate. That much is clear.

Goooooooooooo Wallabies!!!!!!!!!!!

No forecast from two of the three world experts on rugby analysis - Mozart and Pakie - and no response from AO to the request to narrow down his score to a realistic comparable figure.

By the way I could not see a win by SA in Mendoza - so I indicate a draw,   The real reasons given by me was clear and that is where the Springboks actually lost the contest.   Marx went  AWOL and so did Etzebeth,  If these two fire - even though Marx is on the bench  - there are going to be difficulties for the Aussies.   The loosie combination has been strengthened through the elimination of Louw and so has the centers being improved - the changes of a Bok victory in Brisbane has been improved.    However, Jantjies is a serious problem, which diminishes the chances of victory,

As to the Aussie flyhalf I think the reality will be that Beale will actually play at center and Toomua at flyhalf.   They may actually switch around the players depending on who has ball possession.

Going by the bench it seems like Rassie is looking to chase the game....
