Wallabies vs Springboks I

@oompb you’re underlining SB’s point: DdA was a freak. So the system picked him out. Am very, very nearly got lost.
@smuts sure.
Craven Week is not the breed of talented players nowadays. Easter Tournaments is more the scouters dream. Problem is we don't had any schoolboy rugby for two seasons.
I know the Western Cape schoolboy setup well, walking line for my kids schooled at Paarl Gim and the youngest at Paul Roos.
Paul Roos advert running rugby (win or loose), delivering modern players like Kitshoff, Schalk Brits, Willie , Willemse & Hershell Jantjies.

The Boks feed off mistakes. I think I’d start with To’omua at 10 with Lolesio to come off bench.
Also, Boks defence struggles with 10 who plays flat, that would be the way I’d want them to play.
Need best scrummaging hooker (BPA?) to start. Mbonambi Is the key to Bok scrum. The first half scrums will be a searching examination, so also start best scrummaging locks. @NTA best placed to fill in names!

The media is saying that Quade will be starting.

Hilarious if he was crucial in a Wallabies win and he still got denied citizenship.
It is a bit of a joke

He's being a whinger, he's not living in Oz and wondering why he can't get citizenship? He spends all his times overseas, so he'll need to wait ntil he retires.

If you want big lumps, then Philip and Rodda. LSL is out, and not sure Swain is quite ready tho we did alright against the ABs with him in the row.

@kiwiwomble Rob Leota v the Springbok giants???
@arhs i just post it...i didn't choose it

Hooper with all the work to do again. Nice to see Bell get a start but that's underwhelming. Why are they persisting with that donkey at fullback?

Picked it.

Who knows what Tom Banks needs to do to play himself out of the 15 jersey. At this point I'd even be willing to give Jock Campbell a run.
Ditto Valetini at 8. Wilson a way, way better option. Particularly because they keep sticking Valetini on that right flank when he can't do the showboating loose forward bit.
-
Very strong Wallabies team. Definitely favorates with Cooper back in 10.
Hope Bok rush defense is on it.

600-odd caps for that Wallabies team. Hooper with 111 of those, Slipper 106, Quade 70. Alaalatoa running out for his 50th.
Take out those 4 and you've cut the experience level in half, with 2 rookies on the bench, and 5 other players with < 10 caps. Jeez...
Looks like we're planning on playing our locks the entire game, with Leota and Samu on the bench. Will be a definite problem if Rodda or Philip go down early.
