[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 595300, member: 40658"] that is traditional Springbok rugby at its best! That's the way we have always played!! BUT We have added a few things. For instance, our backline is now also a great weapon. We have scored tries this year running from our own 22/half. Our second try against Australia last week was such a try. We have been using the width of the field to great effect, and have scored brilliant tries. Another thing is our forwards being very mobile. Bismarck, Beast, Etzebeth, Flouw and Vermeulen are very big lads, but they are fast and very fit. it's no more a case of moving our heavy pack around. and with the new 23-players team, the props can be easily rotated to counter this tactic. It's definitely going to be a great game, and I'm looking forward to the impact Fourie Du Preez will make. last week's MOTM and hasn't played against the AIG's since 2011... [/QUOTE]
