    5 changes for SA. Mostly on the bench, I think? No Loooood and no Jesse Kriel, even on the bench.

    Eh...what?

    We lose the next two games and let a series win over SA slip and I won't be happy no matter what the circumstances. I'm genuinely confused as to whether this was sarcasm or not.

    I couldn't care less about a June tour. If we keep making everything a top priority we'll never get to experiment and learn.

    Doesn't look like SA are panicking anyway, no major changes (de Jager is injured afaik).

    delighted with that team to be honest, we should definitely go for the juggler on saturday...

    wonder why kriel and de jager were dropped completely?

    Du Toit in is a plus for them, but mapoe still there is a plus for us. Jantjies will be under sever pressure to control the positional game, and im not sure he has that control in his box of skills.

    combrinck covering 11 - 15 on the bench.....

    The bench is covered with mostert.

    Basically the same starting 15 as last week. They'll have got a bollicking during the week and will be demons on the field to make up for last Saturday. All about redeeming themselves.

    Didn't realise we had it in for jugglers. Or is it one juggler in particular?

    De Jager is injured; ankle I think. Duane Vermuelen is also injured (knee) and hasn't trained this week so far, so that's a risk for them too.

    Murray Kinsella says Irish team coming in the next 10 minutes with some big surprises.

    Didn't see that coming.

    Of course with Stander missing, we do need the obligatory saffer in the pack to translate for us. :D
