We can argue about a few choices, but largely a good 23.
A 5-3 split that can, in a pinch, function as a 6-2 or even a 7-1 if required with Kwagga and Andre-the-giant on the wood.
But permutations aside, this is a team than can bring it. But, will they deliver on the day? -

The forwards were entirley predictable. Eben will be rested after playing 80 in ABs 1. For me only minor surprise is no Kriel.
They have ridiculous depth in midfield.
The ABs would take most of them in a heartbeat

@Billy-Webb we have so many versatile players. Hooker is more a 13 then wing, Gazza can slot 15/12/10, SMZ 10/12/15, Kolbey 11/15, Moodie 13/14. I was hoping for vd Merwe to get a real crack, now he have to sit out for Wessels who can play 2 aswell.

15 minsI don’t think they have been onside the first 20 minutes.
Matera is one of the best ball carriers in the world. Makes metres all the time.
-
Surprised they didn’t look at that head clash in the tackle.
-
Argentina's backline passing is so slow and static. Almost as if they've been coached by Scott Robertson...
-
I really like the Saffa commentators. No word-wank.

SA over complicating things
Dumb penalties, dumb mistakes
Carreras hits another
SA 6-9 Argentina

Camera has clearly gone offline. Either that or the producer is pissed as a newt.

I don’t mind that at ground level camera angle isn’t too bad.
