Springboks vs All Blacks I

[ACT Crusader]

Have watched B-JD play for the Stormers both at lock and blindside. He’s a decent player but is still learning as a test player.

I think they are vulnerable at halfback.

@Daffy-Jaffy

He sounds very laboured with his breathing.

[OomPB]

Two years ago BJD still lived in Paul Roos boarding school, coached two school teams on the same day he played in the URC final against Munster. Finished his studies first at US as industrial engineer before playing full time rugby.

Seems as though Eben trying to convince coaches he’s fit enough to play.

[OomPB]

He and PSdT in tandem is a great Rassie call. They will keep the All Blacks busy. Personally I think the All Blacks will take the first test. We are going to miss RG Snyman and Eben. Also worried about Fassi and SMZ. Its going to big pressure on them.

Sounds like future Cap.

[OomPB]

@pakman Yes he is a great leader but Moerat look like the chosen one at the Stormers and Springboks. They are more or less the same age.

I've seen rumours on line that Eben Etzebeth is actually fit and will come into the side as South Africa shift to a 7-1 bench later in the week.

[pakman]

Would still be 6-2. Knee might be vulnerable if scrumming gets serious.

[game_film]

Looking forward to seeing the Boks 11-2 bench split this week

[Jet]

I think we are going to beat them.

Allblacks by 10+.

And a yellow card each and one upgraded to a red.

I watched that interview this morning
What is wrong with Rassie? He looks like he is sick and totally high on some meds.

I wasnt sure if he was speaking English at times. He was all over the place.

Looks a bit puffy in the face doesnt he.

Allblacks by 12.

[Darren]

Still think the 6-2 bench is very brave, and risky
They have a 9/winger and 10 on the bench I think
An injury or two would leave them very exposed.

[Jet]

Need big games from TP Vaii and SK Barrett.

EJ Blackadder will need to bring some mongrel too.

Damien Sinclair McKenzie to show his opposite number some true razzle dazzle.

@darylmitchell if any team isn't aspiring to that then there is a problem..

[Canes4life]

Looking at that Bok team we’ve got every chance to win this. Definitely not as strong as the side that suited up against the Wallabies. All Blacks by 10.

throwing him in against South Africa at Ellis Park after only one test would be moronic

So you're saying he's not good enough?

He’s good enough alright and if he starts I’m sure he won’t let the jersey down but I’d prefer us to get as much experience on the park as possible, especially when you look at that Bok team.
