I think so too
But - "sure"?
Ha!

I have had a special affection for the Springboks since battling them in my tender youth - in a very (very very) exciting set of protests marches, picket line protests and attempted on-field invasions way back in 1971.

Since they ditched apartheid, i back NZ to beat them of course, but always back the boofhead Boks whenever they play anyone else.
Nothing nicer than a sworn blood enemy finally coming around to a sensible way of looking at the world.

Go the (bloody boofhead) Boks!!

!2 - 6, half time.
The second half should be a corker.
Can the Boks keep up the physical intensity?
Eddie will have a plan for sure - but can he get England to settle, focus, and "click"...
?

This is so nice, watching the presentation.
I am just remembering how much i hated this team.

Nelson, even in his grave he must be grinning too - for the third time.
1981 -
"Nelson Mandela recalled that when he was in his prison cell on Robben Island and heard that the game in Hamilton (NZ) had been cancelled, it was as ‘if the sun had come out’.
1995, and again now.

Well played, SA Rugby.

Lol. This is why I don't bet on sport. Tbf, the English team were a shadow of the team that played the semis, and the Saffers were relentless.
Good match.

I thought it was a dull game and reminded me why I stopped watching union many years ago. It is all about who gives away the most penalties and very little running rugby.
