Wales to win this one by at least 10 points. Would love to see Italy win, but I think they shot their bolt against Scotland and Principality stadium is a difficult place for visiting teams to win. Italy and Wales are probably even at the moment, not much between the sides. Will be supporting...

Actually the human eye can see more shades of green than any other colour. So that would put Ireland and SA at a disadvantage because they cant hide on the field.

Pollard has to start and play at least 60. Knockouts are next and the Boks have to sort out the donkey's wang of a kicking problem that they have.

Brilliant game. Ireland better all round. SA would have won that game but kickers left 11 points off the board. I don't understand why Pollard wasn't in the team.

There appears to have been a real deemphasis on size with the current AB squad. Colin Meads and Jonah Lomu would have really stood out on the field for their size if they had been on the park tonight. Don't get me wrong, it is not all important but they seem to have run out of sheep farmers and...

NZ really pale and unconvincing tonight. Really trying to understand the implosion. Perhaps it is the loss of SA teams from Super Rugby, but those ABs tonight we're not intimidating at all.

I will go with NZ winning by between 12 to 20 points. France have lost too many key players recently, and the ABs will be hurting after the big defeat to SA.

The match is completely sold out - good for a neutral venue. The England vs Fiji match the next day, also at Twickenham is only half sold out.

I've done a lot of hiking in Latin America, hiked the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu - 4 days, climbed villarica volcano in Chile and Pacaya volcano in Guatemala - both have since subsequently erupted and are now lower altitude. Hiked in Patagonia - Los Glaciares NP in Argentina, and Torres Del...

A very good selection all round, with some surprises. I'm hoping that the lack of good kickers doesn't prove fatal. It's a quarter finals team at best, there is a lot of talent in the side, but there has been so much squad rotation in recent years. My intuition is telling me that there is...

Another grinding win from the Boks. Line-outs poor and some bad scrum feeds which they managed to escape from. Argentina much more deliberate at the breakdown and creative in the backs. Boks reminiscent of 2007 side, not 2019 which had much more flare. Can't yet see an outcome in the WC, but it...

The 1924 Olympics final match in Paris would have been a very bad game to have been a minority supporter... From Wikipedia... During the final between France and the United States at Colombes Stadium, French fans booed and hissed the American team. French fans threw bottles and rocks onto the...

Watching this game is worse than watching paint dry. I'm off to get an early night.

It's a strong Bok side, but I still think Wales can thwart it. Remember many of these guys were missing last game while Wales kept the same men going, so better tuned as a unit. Also Bok game plan is box-kicking and then straight down through channel one when they have possession. Wales is...

Very boring game. SA should have sealed the win but no dice. I don't know where the Boks are headed now. The trajectory of the team is definitely downwards. First team was terrible last week, all stars side failed to fire today. I think the the only thing achieved in this series is to cap a few...

Relax So long as the Boks box-kick the ball to Wales you will always have a chance. Springboks are by far the worst tier 1 side in the world at the moment. Saturday's performance was the worst first half of Springbok rugby I have seen since 1992 and I have watched pretty much every single SA...

This is a very strong squad and as an SA supporter I am actually quite worried about this tour. Boks could see Wales as fluff and get casual. SA rugby is full of complacency, and I think it could bite now. I honestly think Wales might take the first test.

I've just watched the game again on catch up. Wales players were dwarfed by the Italians, it honestly looked like boys against men. Wales are going to need to bulk up. Anyway I said last year that when Wales played so much of the last 6N against 14 man teams, that it was covering some cracks...

This has got to be the worst start for England that I have ever seen

Just watched Downed on Netflix a very good documentary about the demise of Boeing and the problems that led to the two 737 Max 8 crashes.
