[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 606975, member: 39190"] I'm hoping for 1Steenkamp, 2Du Plessis (assuming he manages to find his jumpers again after that weird performance otherwise bring him off ASAP), 3Adriaanse (I see Coenie as worth more off the bench), 4Etzebeth, 5Van der Merwe, 6Louw, 7Alberts, 8Vermeulen, 9Vermaak, 10Steyn, 11Habana, 12De Villiers, 13Fourie (but bring him off quickly if he doesn't make up for last week early), 14Pietersen, 15Le Roux 16Mtawarira, 17Strauss, 18Du Toit (to come on as early as possible), 19(Kolisi), 20Pienaar (simply because we have no one else there), 20Goosen, 21Engelbrecht, 22Oosthuizen ITO game plan what I'm thinking we should do is not see France as a threat. What I mean here is not that they aren't, of course not, in fact I see us as slight underdogs so we should be well motivated BUT I really think we should back our line-out and maul at every chance we get.
