@David-269: It's the old foe. And this is a far from a settled Bok side just yet. Mainly in the backs. England always is the big one on the EOYT.

England v South Africa may be game of the weekend but in terms of road to the WC2015 the main game will be played in Dublin. Vamos Pumas!

@I am a stormer-261: I don't see why it should be. This is a new and young England side that shouldn't be seen as anything to crow about if we win.

@XV-262: London - grey, cold and miserable. And that's just the people.

@Rockn Rolla-83: Cesco's in Strydom Park Randburg is worth a shout. First port of call for lunch when visiting ebronxi. Peri peri chicken livers will cause a death one day.

Glad to see the Italy-Aus test is on at the same time. At least there will be some rugby to switch over to when the Boks start playing their usual rubbish.

Awful weather in London today. Grey, cold and it has been raining all morning……and I doubt it will stop until later this evening. So it should be a forward dominated game.

@David-260: Remember what HM has said from the word go. "There are no excuses." England, away, is the big one on this tour.

If HM is using inexperience as an excuse, he certainly can’t use it against England who have 233 caps against our 431.

@carol-257: Land of our Fathers is a great anthem particularly when sung in Cardiff. But as you say, that has been the highlight of the last 2 weeks. and it ain't gonna change today. The Boks are wary of England. It is going to be a humdinger and only a couple of points will separe them. This is the big one for the Boks. The one we really want to win.

@I am a stormer-256:

I think frankly we do not stand a chance today, even with a weakened Springbok side!

Although your kickers are missing Percys guiding hand and loosing valuable points!

Wales fans will enjoy some great singing in a fantastic stadium, then it will go downhill!!

@carol-255: Just hope it's a good game. It is a must win for both teams. I just expect a forward dominated game with the conditions as they are. But sadly, Wales are up against it today.
