Boks/All Blacks - more of the same?

This week we head to Wellington, same teams, is it going to be the same result? Well, the way the Boks played last weekend I wouldn't be surprised, and they've not changed the team at all when the backline is just crying out for a revamp.

I'd put De Villiers back in centre where he belongs and boot out Oliver altogether. Or even better, put Juan de Jong there and bring in Hougard on the wing. I'd also be giving Pienaar a good look at scrum half. This is one for Springbok fans to watch through their fingers.

Piri Weepu at scrum half is the only chink of hope for the Boks.

It's pretty clear from the first match that:

• The Boks are probaly going to lose this weekend
• The only chance the Boks have of beating the AB's this weekend is at home
• The Wallabies could have a big say in this year's results, everybodies expecting them to be dire so they can only do better than that. Let's see what Robbie Deans is really made of...

In other news, not exactly new but Rassie Erasmus is behind moves for a 20/20 stle rugby tournament, with 20 minute halfs (obviously) to run in the early part of the season as a money spinner to keep SA players at home. He's always been big on innovation, let's see what he comes up with. More about that here:http://www.theroar.com.au/2010/06/23/proposed-ipl-style-super-rugby-comp-in-south-africa/
