I am taking England as being the side to beat as the wee abs are too pap to be a serious contender.
Side to play Nz
Beast, Strauss, Malherbe
Etzebeth, Du Toit
Kriel, Vermuelen, Louw (Burger but we shall see how he goes)
Kolbe. Pollard. Jan, Allende, Habana, Senatala and Willie
For England. In come Bissie, in comes Willemse for Du Toit and possibly in comes Marcell for Kriel.
Our pack against nz will be powerful and mobile. The backline supported by Kriel would be a nightmare for the wee abs.
Agaisst England we beef up the pack a bit. Wilemse 127 kg and the more physical Bissie and Marcell. Still a mobile pack but powerful. 943 kg or so.
There is little doubt us not winning the RWC will be all Meyers fault barring refs and injuries.
Kolb'e move to scrumhalf must start ASAP. Reinach is also looking great.
Talent to burn but a coach who is plodding along. So disappointing. Can anyone direct Meyer to Ruckers Forum where he can read posts like this!!!!
Also get in the right supporting coaches. Not bulle halfwits!! Bring in a guy like Eddie Jones. How about that top rugby brain Rassie! Away with medi ocrity!
