Considering the injuries and lack of availabilities, that's a strong 15. Freeing up Beirne to hit more rucks could be huge

Bundi was carrying that arm from 65 mins. Hard nut to finish the game

I'm Irish, big fan of eggchasers , I always promote this channel to friends, keep up the good work , 😊

Springbok fan in the UK, hands down my favourite rugby channel!

As a South African- may the best team on the day win. I probably wouldn't be feeling like that if we had lost last week lol

As a Springbok fan, my first impression is that this team is definitely strong enough to get a result in Durban. Keen to see how Doris will cope with the added responsibility of the armband, but overall one or two of the changes may actually help Ireland in my view, Ringrose looked dangerous coming off the bench. Boks will have to perform on the day to wrap up the series

Peter is beyond loved in the whole of Ireland seriously, but I think sadly it is time, but I hope he gets to play his last test at home, so perhaps after November, we need to give him the respect he deserves. Sad to see Aki out as well

I like coming to your page...you seem to get the genuine SA fans and not the Facebook trolls

Beirne at six👏could be a masterstroke, the experience of Omahoney coming off the bench most likely an angry peter coming off the bench could also bring the extra omf hes been missing

Make no mistake. SA got the bounce of the ball last Saturday and Ireland were well in that game. This series is far from over

Seeing Tadhg at 6 was a big relief for me!

As a Saffer, I so respect and love Ireland’s never say die attitude- no doubt they will give it everything- I’d predict SA by 3

Tim....I remember ur combined team when Ireland played England in the 6 Nations....almost no English on it and u guys still beat us!...so I'm hoping the lack of Irish players on this combined team will work in our favour!. A brilliant set of reports from SA over the last weeks..THANK U.

I can see Tim has been enjoying that African sun

Doris stepped up massively in the first test made me look a fool for shitting on him recently

As an Irish fan, we've got to go out at 100% from the start and maintain that pace for the entire 80. We were slow to get going last week which put us behind from the third minute. Absolutely that team can win. Especially now that we're at sea level and there's oxygen

It’s going to be one hell of a game despite the changes. Go Bokke!

Boks need to revert to original World Cup winning approach. Stranglehold. And win. And then I want to see John Kirwin’s face.

Let's hope we get anyone but an English ref. Wayne Barnes Jr. Couldn't make the onfield calls quick enough it was sad. Then, he reiterated he call ten times to the TMO almost like a warning don't overrule me. Why can't we get a French or Southern hemisphere ref for such a big game. Everyone knows where the English ref stand

Tim, beating SA isn’t the problem, it’s the ref and TMO were the problem last week, white house was poxy and Luke was spineless, having said that I do like the look of the team and yes we will beat SA this Saturday 😉 Cmon Ireland 🇮🇪🇮🇪

Thx Tim always good to hear your side. Remember to enjoy S.A.

A Beautiful welcome to our Beloved Springbok Country

The Irish has always played à hard game and always the full 80min. They are now true competitor's on the top with us in South Africa. Great players and said respectfully. We will have a great game!!🤝💚🏉

Peter is a well loved/ hated player in South Africa, we see our passion in his eyes. Legend of the game.

You need to listen to what Nigel owens said about the referring of the first test. He said the lowe try should have stood.

Ringrose and Henshaw are a phenomenal pairing. Let's see what they do in their correct positions.

As always Tim, great content. Enjoy the lead up to the game. Cannot wait

Hi Tim. Love your show. Been watching since the RWC. Love that you are here in S.A. Just one thing I think you missed out on with regards to reaching your 100 000 subs, is you should have used the Loftus crowd more... You should have promoted yourself... you saw how many people recognized you. So do your normal interviews, but follow it up with "are you subscribed?" And ask the people to sub to your channel right then and there... Hit the beer tents and you will reach your 100 000 subs before you are on your way back too the UK... Go to Kings Park and hit 100 000!!! Keep up the good work!

Enjoy the Sun ,food, and our country

Love your channel Tim, your enthusiasm and your willingness to share your honest thoughts. It reflect well in the jump in your subscribers, well done! 😉💪

100% o mahony should be done as an international player. Izechukwu is the future. Phenomenal athlete

Bok need to play better than last weekend. If one of the 3 big TMO decisions had gone the other way the match would have been a drawn.

As this game is at sea level, I'm hoping that Ireland can last the distance. I lived in Joburg for 2 years and know how hard it is to adjust to the altitude - and that was without the physical challenges of rugby. The Boks always play one or two games against visiting teams at altitude as it gives them a huge advantage. A turbo boosted home advantage! This weekend it literally is a (sea) level playing field so I'm hoping the Irish can overcome the phycological blow of last weekend's loss and give it their all. Let's face it, even with the huge home advantage, the Boks only just scraped a win.

Asusual great video my friend. Hope you enjoy the South African hospitality and rugby fanatics. Let us know.

Thank u Tim for the channel I enjoy it so much just the way that you go about giving feedback on all the games and just updating us on what you thing about the boks and just rugby in Ganeral

I agree Tim, I think SA by 10/12 points but I hope I’m proved wrong and the boys get a win. Enjoy the game and looking forward to your videos in the sun up to it. ☘️🇮🇪

Great video, again, as always. Look at those subscriber numbers. Just wonderful!

Tim. It's fantastic that you have come out to enjoy what we have to offer. You have officially now become the new Guru of rugby. May your channel go from strength to strength. Keep it up Mate. Huge respect

Thanks Tim, great review

Fair play to Farrell for making the big call and putting POM on the bench. He was awful in the last game, you can't be carrying your captain against SA away from home.

Nice team - was worried POM would keep his starting place. Disappointed Izzy or Timoney weren’t given the no.20 jersey.

Beirne at 6 is huge, didn’t think Faz would do it but it gives 3 solid lineout options which should help the lineout which has stuttered to say the least. Herring on the bench and Ryan calling will hopefully shore it up. Breakdown wise it frees Beirne up to get busy at rucks and cause some havoc. POM on the bench isn’t a bad sub to pull on when it’s hopefully a tight game.

Beirne at. 6 ..yes!.........funny this team looks stronger than last weeks (beside DS)

Flying down from a freezing joburg tomorrow morning. Hope to see you at Kings Park 🍻

I hope you watched Nigel Owens on that TMO madness. That was a try and it should have been Ireland ahead.

Love these videos!

Strong Irish pack - think they’re definitely going to target the breakdown with Beirne at 6. Interesting game ahead! See you at kings park 🫡

It’s a bummer that Ireland have sustained all the injuries they have sustained, but for some reason this team looks not only more balanced but also stronger. If I was an Irish supporter I’d be more confident in this team than the one from last weekend.🤷🏾‍♂️

Great video pal. Have a wonderful time in Durban, so sorry I missed seeing you on the B field at Loftus last week, would have been great to meet you. Always enjoy your content.

Cant wait to see the Kings Park outfields preview like Loftus was done last weekend. Keep up the good work Eggchaser!

I absolutely love Peter O Mahony but i dont think he should be starting anymore. It will be interesting to see how Murray controls the game and wether its a negative or a positive. Great to see ringrose back in a starting position too

Really enjoying your channel and views Tim ..always making a point and remaining objective ,not too mention its hard work and lots of intel. Well done ..SA by 12👍🏻👍🏻 Also like the way you add real time content to your channel of whats happening around you 👀🚴🏋🏄‍♂️🏉. Enjoy SA🇿🇦

Hi Tim! Great content as always (besides that shocker of a selection of Josh above Siya). Let me know if you want to link up with some great SA Rugby podcasters when in Cape Town. They have access to players. Enjoy our beautiful country.

Hi Tim, thxs onces again. I take it this game is for the ownership of the song Zombie/ Rassie ,the winner gets to use it LOL😂

Tim, You are just brilliant in your presenting & knowledge + totally respect your honesty 👍 You are a very Good Man 👍

This team does look pretty good. even the bench

Ireland flexing their depth. I love the URC because I know these players now. Lets goooo may the rugby be as free flowing as the beer!

Thanks for coming to Durban. The rugby at Kings Park should an experience for you to remember. Enjoy boet.

As a Kiwi, will be cheering Ireland on. Phenomenal team in my opinion

Beirne at 6 finally, gives him way more opportunity to be a scourge around the park. Glad to see big stu on the bench. Seeing healy on the bench it's no surprise that David humphreys announced today that as of next year non of the irish provinces ar allowed to sign non irish qualified props due to the limited number we are producing

We can name the same 23 cuz most of our players are made from a mixture of concrete and nails 😂

I've a feeling we'll win this one. There were many times we were able to dismantle SA last week, with improved accuracy this week i foresee a 10 point win. 27 - 17

No disrespect to PoM, but I prefer this back row. And James Ryan is quality. As a Bok supporter, this pack has me more concerned than last week's.

Ireland suffering a few end-of-season injuries, unfortunately. On the other hand, although the start of SA’s international season their player depth slightly obfuscates the extent of injuries in their camp.

Siya in, vd Flier out. Tadhg Beirne all day ❤. Crowley edges Pollard. Osborne for Willie. Looking forward to a great game. Hope the IRE team enjoyed their tour of SA. Thanks for great analysis. Best rugby podcast. Enjoy the rest of your stay in SA. Predict a 1 point win for Boks

Farrell has hit back with a clever pack selection. Ireland are making the best of it and we know they are fighters. Boks to win by single figures if Pollard kicks accurately

Well you got that wrong picking 4 Irish men in a combined 23👏🏻👏🏻 Fantastic game Ireland.

Thanks Tim, great content as always. Dr Doris' work rate phenomenal. My prediction, Boks 32 VS 18 Ireland. From a Bok supporter, much respect to the 'Boys in Green'.

The Boks will be better in this test...Ireland will need to be at their best to win..

Thought Sia had a massive game, and when that happens the team plays out of their socks.

Not a bad team considering everything. Healy has massive experience but it may have been better to put Jäger or Loughman on the bench. So happy to see McCloskey there, would have liked Cormac Izuchukwu to be given the chance off the bench too. It’s going to be another battle, I think we will do it by 5. Erin-Go-Bragh ☘💚🇮🇪

Thanks Tim, enjoy the weather there , it is nicer than our summer

Good luck to Ireland, but I must still be in the Green and Gold corner... Speaking of which, I hope we have our home kit to play in...

Well done again Tim. If we can beat South Africa without 3 of our best players....Sheehan, Bundi and Hugo Keenan it will be a miracle but us Irish believe in miracles

great points, great analysis, great to listen to you, Tim...eventhough your prediction was, ha!! ...thankfully 'off' Super well done to Ireland, & to drop-goal maestro C. Frawley and lets bear in mind...no Hugo K. no J. Gibson-Park, no Mack H. no Dan S. no Aki, no Casey...gee!

Best rugbychannel on youtube. Saw you at Loftus.. Legend

Shouldn't have Healy - made the choice for two LH, didn't have Loughman, should play TOT. Should also have Jager instead of Bealham because he's an excellent TH and should have a shot + Nick, Cian, and / or Cormac at 14 (as he's a former 7s player, has the spatial awareness and speed to cause a tactical quagmire for Boks) on that bench.

Boks will b better this weekend. 3rd test together. All will step up to the occation. However. Never underestimate the Irish. They play to win. No game at this level is easy

Andrew Porter did well by engaging early and eliminating the hit on the engage taking away what South Africa do well and he turned that into a wrestling match which meant the power coming through from the locks and Pieter Stef was creating strain on the front row. Second half when SA got ascendancy it was when Porter was off on the hit, normal service resumed

One major intangible is being overlooked. It may sound daft, but the Springbok's levels of collective motivation may have dropped, even if this is subconscious. The Springboks have reached all their immediate goals and challenges with their defeat of Ireland last Saturday. If this is the case is it not a mistake to select the same team? The hunger levels are possibly not there. If this is the case, then selecting those who are hungry to prove themselves at the Test match level may have been the way of getting aggregate motivation levels up to a winning level. Rassie may come to regret his no-change decision as the evidence of a lack of cutting-edge hunger for another victory takes hold of the Springboks out on the field. I predict an Ireland win for this reason.

Still think Ringrose should be captain. Would be happier if JGP was playing but a decent side given the injuries.

I love the look of the team, given the injuries. Murray will need to be on rapid form. I think we’ll bring a game but won’t be enough I think.

I just love watching your viewership increase everyday. Bring on 100k before you leave SA

I have a feeling that Ireland will be a different team this weekend. I predict an Ireland win but anything could happen

That combined team really shows irelands injury crisis. Sheehan, Aki, JGP and Keenan would be in for me. And If Beirne was at 5 he would be too

I think handre had a off day only if we talking about kicking but attacking he was great in the set up to the first try and his passing was cutting out players from the defense and made it easy for the next phase with willie to find space

Did a double take when I saw POM not starting and two extra when I saw no Bundi! Wow!

Always enjoy your comments. Thank enjoy South Africa.

You are the best keep on going, i hope you enjoy south africa

It will come down to the first 20min, How both teams start. If Ireland gets ahead and show intent then it's going to be a tough day for the springboks. Ireland will be out to prove a point after comments that they look tired. Buy I do see the boks edging it at the end just based of their finals' experiences. 🇿🇦

Only Willie and Kurt-Lee play at altitude in the starting 15, all the rest play at sea level, Japan, France or UK, so the altitude thing is actually a myth, it's pretty much the same thing for both sides.

When at Kingspark make sure you climb the grandstand and give us your opinion. Only stadium I’ve been to where you get a sense of Vertigo. Feels like, “if I tripped I’d fall on the grass”

I feel bad for Bundi ,I noticed his injury was serious.

Let’s hope Dickson might be better than Pearce but don’t hold your breath.

Tim is tanning in Durban while we're tripling up on layers in Cape Town. SA weather for ya!

Aki's explosiveness will be missed, he's generally our only line breaker. I do think we'll see O Mahony in the November series but I think he's probably edging towards the door, not because hes done anything wrong but given his age we need to be looking to the future. James Ryan isnt necessarily the future though, while he burst on the scene several years ago, his progress has stalled, as he's not dynamic or aggressive enough for me, plus he's Porteresque in his propensity to give away penalties. Id really love to see some younger players coming through, because we desperately need more strength in depth, not purely for injury cover but also for competition for places, so that players up their game when they get the chance. I predicted an irish loss in the first, and unfortunately see another defeat for Ireland this week.

Initially there were so many Irish injuries Id given up all hope of drawing the series. But actually this Irish team could be even stronger. The backs will have a better defensive shape with Ringrose at 13.

Great option at the lineout now

The low number of Ireland players in the combined 23 warned me of an Irish backlash. Poor game management by Boks in the end, great Drops by Ire No 10. Sasha was excellent, but should have left that last ball to be our lineout.

Caolin is pronounced Kaylin or Kwaylin depending on where in Ireland you're from. Really impressed at your willingness to learn our weird names so there another one for you!
