[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 446098, member: 24910"] A few surprises in the team: I would have thought Muller would have been paired with either Botha or Rossouw at lock, as both Botha and Rossouw a 4's rather than 5's (e.g they jump the front of the lineout, and pack on the tighthead side of the scrum). It suggests that Muller may not be 100%. I was interested to see they have gone back to only a single prop on the bench (a specialist loosehead), meaning Smit is the cover for tighthead prop again - fortunately (for South Africa) Fiji don't have the scrum to exploit this. Good to see Lambie starting, but slightly surprised they have moved Steyn into the midfield rather than starting de Jongh. I've got no idea why they would start Ndungane over Aplon or Hougaard...
