[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 855381, member: 74121"] I can't say either selection is filling me with confidence for the quality of this contest. Plisson has achieved very little in a french shirt when I have watched. And I may be in a minority of one but I prefer the other Fijian winger over Vakatawa. At least Spedding isn't there and I think Huget is decent. Fikou beginning to live up the hype when he hit the international seen - so I am maybe being too negative. But Plisson... did he have a good season at club level? I was an immediate fan of Skosan after seeing him in the reserve Lions loss to the Jagaures last season. He is an athelete of the highest order and I expect an impact from him at international level if he gets any sort of quality of ball. I think he has the potential to eclipse any previous Bok winger of the past 20 years - and I don't normally get carried away by players. Not sold on SA halfbacks this year although definite signs of improvement from both in the last couple of weeks it seemed? South Africa by 3 if it is wet and 13 if conditions are fine. Throw that out the window if AC makes his halfbacks kick away early phase ball like he did all of last year. We should be able to tell that inside 5 minutes. France have enough weapons to exploit that. [/QUOTE]
