[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 528673, member: 24910"] Not sure about that. We have been very good in the lineout this season (in fact for a number of years) - we have won 63/70 (90%) of our lineouts during the RC (South Africa are similar with 70/79 - 89%). We certainly got the better of South Africa at lineout time in Dunedin, but they look much better with Etzebeth and Bekker back. The key to the AB's lineout is the number of jumping options we have, with all off our loosies strong lineout options (Read is particularly good). We have probably our two best aerial locks in the country starting this week too - assuming Hore's throwing is good (which it usually is), I think we will be fine on our own ball. I don't think we will steal as much ball of South Africa at lineout time as we did in Dunedin though. I'm am a bit worried about how we are going to deal with South Africa's mauling this week, as we really struggled to stop them once they going in Dunedin...... [/QUOTE]
