[QUOTE="Jbobo, post: 692711, member: 62085"] I'd agree with that, the Boks are so good at line out time, Scrum and esp the maul. Wales are notoriously bad in the line out, haven't been great in the scrum (not exactly under huge pressure, but refs seem to think so') and we cannot generally counter a Maul to save our lives. The mauls are what killed us in the last game, changed everything but still should have seen the game out. I'm also worried that Wales have used their reserves for the campaign against NZ, we usually have a good performance in us and maybe it's been used between Aus and NZ. If we turn up like we did this week, I expect us to have parity up front and then who knows, depends on whether we are having a good attacking day and hit the ground running like last time. Boks favorites, but gap closing i think. [/QUOTE]
