Very lucky win for us, though the umpiring during the scrums was a bit dire. Otherwise, very even stevens, I think. Only won because of the two drop goals, though the second one was deliberately set up. Was great to see the plan work. I'm not betting on a win for us against NZ.

the first drop from the touchline was amazing :)
I just seen a replay of that kick last night, bloody beautiful nudge from Steyn. He has a bit of a habit of attempting the drop goal and this time it came off.

Did you remember last year Rokocoko asked New Zealand rugby management to list his name on team releases as Josevata? There it is :thumbsup:

Matfield and Botha are gonna kill us. Hopefully Montgomery has an off kicking day.

And hopefully the All Blacks use some width in their attack instead of smashing it up the middle. I have no idea why Henry is fond of that method against the Boks.

The Saffies should kill us.

After watching SA v Australia, I think New Zealand will win. It was only Australia's lack of composure and forward cohesion that lost it for them last week, and these are areas which New Zealand are very strong in.

Wee wager? Our backs will run rings around them I reckon. The only place they have it over us will be in the lineouts
I don't do wagers, I value my avatar too much and can't see the point in much else that is worth wagering. James/de Villiers/Fourie are a very good combination, especially on defence.
