@Mr-Fish will be much stronger then the has beens scrap playing against the Springboks in South Africa.
Yes probably a better and more cohesive team, but still more interesting seeing a bunch of recent internationals come together to attempt to play Barbarians rugby.

@Mr-Fish All of the Saffers would want to impress and push for the Springbok jersey. Thats something different then a bunch of big name has beens playing for a jol.
Dobson respect rugby values and his Stormers are still unbeaten in the URC. Never underestimate him.

I definitely think it'll make for a stronger team than throwing together some former internationals from across the world, but I think most people watch the Barbarians to see those former stars. Plus, South Africa are already playing a game in London on Saturday.

What an uninspiring Baabaas team.
Would be better to call them South Africa XV and have the match as an A International
Yeah I usually like to catch baabaa matches, can't say I'd be tuning if it wasn't NZ.
And who the hell is Brad Webber?
