Weather looking as if should suit England I personally think a series loss for England would be the wake up call they need. England have been very poor this year and I am not 100% sure if Jones has the confidence of the players. He took over a good squad from Lancaster did ok but of late they are going backwards. They could win this game if they want it enough so we wait!

Wonder what these talking heads slamming England wi ll say if England win.  Eddie is a good coach, they should stick with him!

If England win I am sure the talking heads as you say will be relieved, Eddie Jones is a good coach but there are many good coaches out there. The problem is they have had a very bad year, this is not where they should be a year out from RWC. If you take into account that England has the biggest pool of players in the world they should be far more settled, he has not found his combinations yet and is leaving it very late to get a settled squad ready for the WC.

English have an edge in these conditions one would think.  Appear they will target the Boks back three. We shall see

Well, kickoff is five mins away so hopefully we will get a good game! We have had two good games so far so expectations are high.

"Stransky is the worst sycophant in sports....how many times has he mentioned Kolisi's leadership".... and that is why I prefer the Afrikaans commentary.
