    All logic points to an England victory but this is the Boks and there's no team quite like them historically who can grind out a win.

    Bizarre. They've had a week to prepare but still read it from a script.

    Do South Africa stand any realistic chance? Feels like its a case of how much England win by not if they win.

    England would be heavy favourites. SA can front up to England's power and England need 70%+ of what they did against NZ. If it's below that it's game on.

    The only question for me is did England peak and have their world cup final last week. Likewise South Africa have not had a stormer yet - we haven't yet seen the saffer team that beat NZ and England twice last year. Will they show up for this?

    All logic points to an England win but...

    Kind of seeing this like the Rassie led Munster games v Saracens.

    We believe the packs are equal but when it comes down to it the English will be too powerful I believe. Expect a relatively close first half but England will pull away in second and win by 13 points.

    Have had money on England since the end of the 6 nations. Just felt they had the full squad to go all the way.

    SA players not looking as fired up during the anthems, very nervous.

    Deliberately slow playing from SA there. Stopping England getting out of the blocks like last week.

    Think South Africa should've gone to the corner with that penalty if Pollards a bit nervous about kicking?

    This looks grim...

    Replay looked innocuous enough. Must have hit the hip.

    Ref didn't seem to think so. Not good to lose a player so early.

    I think I have watched far too much uk political coverage, because I am sure I just heard "Oh jeremy corbyn" being belted out by the crowd there.
