Eddie Jones catches George Smith after a night out - The Aussie Rugby Show - Episode 12

Agreed. A very good comparison. On the day they can beat anyone.

You can never be sure which team is pitching up until the whistle blows.

I think Contemponi is a fabulous coach.

if we can all fix up one or two little things, it will make a significant difference.

Umm - really?

He goes on to say that they just need to deal with the Bok scrums, lineouts and territorial game. Those are not one or two little things ...

Besides, I suspect Tony Brown would like to see his new attacking philosophy clicking against Wales. That involves a lot more than set pieces and kicking. And Gatland might want to be ready for it.

For me the big question is whether the Boks retain their shape and intensity, regardless of the scoreline. If they do that then it could be a cricket score.

But there have been times this year when we have seen them get into a kind of error strewn, shelter shelter, hot potato mode on attack. Hope we don't see that, because it is silly and ineffective. Also boring.

I would love to see the new Bok plan in full flight. But, sadly, my expectation is that we will be another England-like post-game interview, with Rassie "taking the win" but declaring that they did not play the way they intended to.
