Nick Mallet's comments offer guidance...very hard for NZ to reach level they reached yesterday and SA cannot do much worse in getting to the final so improvement will be there next week...

Hope there's a NH referee rather than Aus Angus Gardner...

The assistant referees and TMO need to be involved in calling out the infringements that have messed up a few matches so far...

Onward...

England flanker Tom Curry has accused SA hooker Bongi Mbonambi off calling him a white cunt.

There are a lot of afrikaners who would heartily agree with that statement..

Will it get the poms a replay after snatching defeat from the jaws of victory?

Will the poms refuse their bronze medal this year?

SA should make wholesale changes for the final as the players who started both the quarter and semi final look knackered. Definitely one centre, two in the front row, one lock and the 8th man also bring in Moodie either as centre or on the wing. ABs are going to be a mountain to climb.

I actually thought the AB would be the favs for the final based on the last couple of games ?

NZ 5/6
SA 1/1
Draw 18/1

I am going for the draw, history to repeat itself

Am may come in at outside centre...Moodie on the wing...maybe move du Toit to 8th man with Smith or Fourie at flank...breakdown contest vital as it could restrict NZ ability to play wide...yesterday's slow grind from phase to phase, set piece to set piece will blunt NZ...take any kickable points in NZ half...

Who are the ref, assistants and TMO?
