John Smit has finally joined his team and the assembly is complete and Dan Carter is an ordinary underwear model and human and vain and can be neutralised.
The Boks’ preparation included a field session yesterday and then one on Thursday. Just what one needs to get focussed and in the groove for Saturday’s National Anthem and face off the Haka.
They have today off, although this will include video sessions and analysis, but will attend the Prime Minister Helen Clarke’s function later this evening.
Then the announcement of the Springbok Test 22 is scheduled for tomorrow Thursday 3 July, which will up the ante a little.
Adi Jacobs vs. Ma’a Nonu or Frans Steyn vs. Ma’a Nonu?
This has to be the question.
A Captains run at Westpac Stadium on Friday afternoon at 3pm and then the first of 10 Test matches against the All Blacks before the 2011 Rugby World Cup!
