The reason Saffers don't like the poms is because you guys are twats for the most part when you visit SA.
I don't give a toot about sports, but man you guys need to learn the words 'humility' and 'grace' I think.
Please stop coming to my country and acting like you own the place because you colonized the Boers to steal the gold and diamonds from them, limey scum. |

Gonna stick my neck out and say England 9 South Africa 25 with all our points coming of Jonny's boot.
As much as I'd like to see us win, I don't think we can. SA will be by far the strongest team we've faced thus far and I'm expecting them to find plenty of holes in our defence. Think the tight 5's are pretty evenly poised and don't expect us to disrupt their play too much meaning that if SA can clear out quickly and get quick ball down the line, we'll be in trouble.
Conversely, England haven't looked like scoring more than once or twice per game throughout the entire tournament. Even against reasonably good opposition, SA have still scored tries. It's always very difficult for any team to defend for sustained periods. France nearly unlocked us on a couple of occasions and should have won the match had it not been for some poor decision making by the French backs. The SA backs are an altogether more organised outfit, second only to the All Blacks in that department IMO.
Think we'll hold our own until the half-time mark, but reckon that SA will put 3 or 4 tries on us during the 2nd period. Our only hope really is for SA forwards to lose their heads and give away penalties and hope Jonny can keep the board ticking over for us, but I reckon that we'll be giving away just as many as them if the England forwards fail to impose themselves and they start to infringe and make (frustrated) mistakes.
Does anyone know what TV network is showing the game over here? I'd love to watch it but reckon that I'll have to settle for buying and viewing the game 24-hours after it's finished. |

Gonna go for it here and say that England never ever have won something and then retained it next time round. This is why I don't think we will be any different.
SA 18 - 10 England.
Expect to see plenty of raking!!! OW! |
