Putting Rog in that position was never going to work.

Vickery was starting to fade after Rapellele was replaced by a real hooker but the Bull did some might scrummaging.

The BeAst still allowed to drive in at an angle.

Will the Boks send a full strength team north? No excuses not to.

I could not have possibly imagined 6 months ago the following players even getting on the squad, not to mind starting in the final test: Thu, 02 Jul 2009 15:53:50 GMT Donal http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/irishrugby/message/23810 http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/irishrugby/message/23810 Shane Williams?
