Atonio is apparently getting better. At his size that sounds dangerous.

France side to take on SA

New bench LH?

[cgrant]

Yes, from La Rochelle. He is a very strong scrummager.

Presumably with Antonio at TH and Skelton behind them!

The Springboks starts without a poacher. If they can keep up until the likes of Marx, Kitshoff and Kwagga arrives we could be in with a chance.

[cgrant]

It's gonna be a massive battle upfront.

@cgrant Yep looking forward to this test , should be bloody good.

Sad to lose Wiese due concussion against Ireland. However Kwagga play to the ball which make a good combination with Kolisi and PSdT.

France to win, as long as it continues their rise up the rankings. Win-win when they take the 1st spot and are favourites for the RWC, plus Ireland aren't no1.

This will be interesting to see how well France play against two rather different styles from one week to another.
