Rugby Championship 2025: South Africa v Australia

You'd think they'd go straight to LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) for the most like for like switch. Joe seems like he can be stubborn to bench players who excel in that role, and for better or worse Williams has really excelled in a shorter burst off the bench.

I'm also down to throw Toole out there and see if he can mix it up too. We've already done the job and won 1 in SA, I think there's one hell of a response heading our way this weekend, may as well mix it up and see what happens. Particularly if we're without captain H. Give Ross a crack, give the Hooper/McReight/Valetini backrow a whirl. I'd also be down to see what JAS looks like on the wing with Paisami and Len in the centres. Cook us up something special Joe

Geeze that elite playing group of big name stars in the Springboks line up is starting to age. Almost all their big names will be minimum 35 years+ at RWC. We have seen age is no limit for a few of our aging warriors but not sure you want to go into a RWC campaign with 10 of your starting 15 35+. One to watch over the next few years.
