This Irish team is going to be tough…we might see a much closer game and if the Boks are not totally accurate, the Irish might just pull it thru.

Well changes like dropping O’Mahony to the bench suggests Farrell really wants to win this one, that couldn’t have been easy….the match will have to be won. Sea level and softer conditions will also be more familiar. Still the Boks should prevail…keeping the same team will help.
It’s going to go down to the wire - the Irish will want it even more

Except for the loss of Sheenan at 2, bringing in Ryan to start at 5 and moving Tahg to blindside and dropping POM to the bench is a good move
I’ve never understood them not starting James Ryan at lock - he is a class act
Aki is out so it’s Henshaw and Ringrose at centre with Murray at 9
It’s a damn good side
