Good article, good to know that the Boks are fully fit. We really need Vermuelen in top shape, I believe that he will make or break us. Lambie has to start after his performance against Arg, unfortunately I think Meyer will stick with Pollard. The boy has potential but I think should be an understudy to Lambie for the time being. Scrumhalfs are unknown too reliant on Pienaar, haven’t seen du Preez play in how long and Paige is untested at this level. Centres I think we need to bed down the de Allende and Kriel combo these 2 I believe will become a force in the same mould as the Conrad Smith Ma’a Nonu combo, de Villiers to come off the bench to keep cool heads in last 20.. Wings I think we should stick with Habana and let Mvovo get a few games under his belt..Pieterson to come on later in the game.

Rather him than me to make the choices. Rudi Paige???? I don’t know. I’m happy for the lad. An uncapped player for the world cop??????????????WOW, Maybe a great selection, only time will tell.

Great writing Andrew … at least Meyer can now put his full concentration into his team selection knowing that the boks are definitely on their way soon … and that the small issue of a potential lawsuit against them was quite rightly squashed in the Pretoria high court today. Look forward to following your blog as we go !
