I half want Ford to get his feet back under the table after this week
In my defence, I was left unsupervised….

If the set piece doesn’t perform then this will be a comfortable power game win for SA. Selection of Marchant on the wing is just odd, going to need some massive performances from the likes of Itoje and Smith at 10. Simmonds and Dombrandt need to come on and make an impact, Curry and Underhill will be battered after 60 mins. SA bench looks imposing!!

It’s often said that the true measure of a 10 is how they perform going backwards. Big day for Marcus Smith, then!
He’s obviously not just immensely talented, but exceptionally mature for his age/experience. Seems likely he’s in for the toughest challenge of his career so far, though, so it’s going to be a fascinating watch.

I'll settle for no injuries to our players today. Tall ask against the world champs I believe.
