I think we can hold them in the scrum, not sure about the mauls though. They have one of the best lineout combinations in the world...but we only lost 4 lineouts in the two matches against Australia and France so we should be able to hold our own.

They have a great kicker, we have a great kicker, their kicker has better stats than ours at the moment but....ours is called Johnie

If we can just keep the ball from going past their number 12 then we could be really in for a chance. If it does get to their 12 it will also get to their 11 and he is damn fast. But, we have Tait and Robinson who will target him agressively.

Yep, I think its all going to go down to a battel between each side's 10 and 12 positions. Should be interesting, we're definately the underdogs but given their performances against Fiji and Argentina....well, I think we might just be keeping hold of that cup for another four years.

And then America will decide they've made a complete mess of the place since Independance and cede sovereignty back to Mrs Elizabeth Windsor. Africa, India and Pakistan will follow suit.....and the world will be pink again! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I must tell you the tension is mounting in SA. Restaurants, pubs, hotels, etc, etc, are all showing flags and offering specials for tonight. The town that I stay in is having a huge screen erected on the beach front - bring your own food and booze, police will be in attendance

Familys are having braais, biltong and beer sales have reached new highs. A friend of mine sold a rugby ball signed by Jack White and about half the team for R1,000 (150 US$).

Obviously I hope SA win, but I also hope for a clean game and whatever team wins it is on merit and not a bad referee decision, a intercepted pass, a penalty or a lucky drop goal that is the decider. The better team on the park hopefully will win.

Is that then SA's name I see on the cup for the second time
