[QUOTE="mdaclarke, post: 1057228, member: 73361"] 3 thoughts about the South African weakness so far 1. The Stormers and Sharks are both missing a lot of internationals. They will be different sides when they turn up. 2. South African club sides are not the best tourers but this time it is more difficult with new stadiums new pitches, including 4d and different weather conditions. 3. The Northern Hemisphere referees referee the game slightly differently. In the long run I expect the South African teams to end up on a par with the Welsh team. I don't think they will be as good as the Irish teams. [/QUOTE]
