[QUOTE="Peat, post: 666638, member: 42330"] While I've got a lot of respect for South Africa, and worries about how a game would go vs them for England in some respects, I don't think it's as clear cut as some people are saying, particularly when Meyer is making a bit of a mess of things. I mean, most countries in tier 1 test rugby must feel a ray of optimism on seeing Jannie du Plessis' name on the team sheet at least... Also its pretty standard tactics against a team as big as South Africa to move the ball wide as quick as possible to force their monsters to run after it. Obviously that's not helter-skelter all the time, but anyone thinking of going conservative against them has lost. [/QUOTE]
