[QUOTE="unrated, post: 870606, member: 45773"] Most of you are very over critical of the Springboks. I mean they scored 40 points against Argentina in Argentina and in doing so got a bonus point. Thats pretty good IMO. Yes there was mistakes but a sign of a good team is if you can win even on a bad day. Aussies should not think that because they ran the All blacks close that they are now suddenly contenders. We wont know until Australia plays South Africa home and away. Personally i think the All Blacks is suffering from a dip in form and this has made the Wallabies seem better than they are. I think we will easily beat Australia at home and then it will be a tight game in Australia. Heck for all we know Argentina is also playing very well and just came second to a better South Africa. They might give the wallabies a run for their money. I predict for Argentina to win Australia in ARG especially considering the fact that they will be desperate for a home win. Hougaard did not immediately distribute the ball when he got to the rucks in this game. Instead he picked it up and tried to run it a bit pulling in multiple defenders near the rucks before passing, opening up some team mates in the process. Yes he made a few mistakes but man he was not nearly as bad as people are claiming. Id start him again in our next match. We South Africans are too quick to cast players away for the pettiest of things (Faf de Klerk, Francois Steyn, Sarel Pretorius ,Reinach ,Bismarck du Plessis, Beast ,Coenie Oosthuizen, Willie le Roux) All these guys are quality players who gets exiled and vilified by their own national fans.
