[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 354262, member: 39190"] I have to admit that I have no idea what Scotland is bringing to the table or whom (I probably know only about 4 players and am not even sure if any of them are still playing; Nathan Hynes?) If they play anywhere as badly against us as they did NZ we should walk this, even considering the amount of injuries we've got, with the only threats being ourselves; complacancy or bad game management/tactics which I wouldn't put past us. I would like to see Alberts start and think giving Hougaard and Lambie chances wouldn't be a bad idea. Mvovo will probably play in Basson's place and I think he will do well. I would still play Habana though and if at all possible, give the man a try or put him at the back of a maul and have him score that way to get him past that most-tries record so that he can start focusing on the job at hand again. If that doesn't help, he is not the man to wear the no.11 jersey come RWC 2011. The only measure of success for this game should be consistency; playing solid rugby for 80 minutes and finding our rhythm even if this isn't a 1st choice squad. If we could manage that I would be more happy with a close victory than a drubbing where we played haphazardly and didn't get any rhythm going into the Eng game. [/QUOTE]
