Somebody cunningly waited to see who the Springboks were playing this weekend. Le Roux over Nkosi is a surprise to me, must say.

I'm picking George Ford.

Nkosi is more of a wing and I think he should be in place of Kolbe. le Roux was always going to play fullback for NZ clash, may see Gelant in group matches.

Yeah I guess my gut feel was Nkosi on the wing and Mapimpi at 15. At any rate I wouldn't have left him out of the 23.
