Non conosco bene i giocatori sudafricani; della formazione postata da Bernadotte fanno parte anche i sette atleti di colore di cui si parlava nelle polemiche di qualche giorno fa?

E.Jones: dobbiamo giocare al largo se vogliamo battere gli Springboks
<BR>
<BR>Australian coach Eddie Jones says: \"Wallabies will have to spread the ball wide if they are to beat South Africa\". South Africa, the defending Tri-Nations champion, defeated the Wallabies 33-20 last weekend to retain the Nelson Mandela Challenge Plate, largely through starving the Australians of possession.
<BR>Speaking at a news conference Thursday, Jones said the lineouts had caused the biggest problems for his team. \"We\'ve progressed well in the scrums and mauls, but we\'re not where we want to be in the lineouts,\" he said. In a bid to remedy the problem, Jones has recalled South African-born lock Daniel Vickerman and brought in back-rower John Roe to replace the injured and inexperienced Rocky Elsom. South Africa coach Jake White added pace to his back row to counteract Australian flanker George Smith\'s ability to win loose ball, with No. 8 Jacques Cronje joining Joe van Niekerk and Juan Smith. Experienced scrum half Fourie du Preez also joins the South Africa team in place of Enrico Januarie. \"It indicates how they will play. I think they\'ll play around the rucks a bit more,\" said Jones. \"If we get quick ball, and get width and space, we can maybe work an advantage in that area.\" South Africa retained the backline that was so effective - on defence and attack - in the Mandela Challenge victory, which means Australia will have to find ways of stopping inside centre Jean de Villiers from building on his impressive debut in the position. De Villiers\' creativity made the men outside him very dangerous, so an expansive game could again play into the hands of the Springboks as it did last week when they scored two intercept tries off Wallaby attacks.
<BR>But possession from the primary phases will be the key to any chance the Wallabies have of winning, and South Africa\'s tight five looks as if it has too much firepower for Australia.
