Sweaty socks should win this one at a canter.
Samoa were the pits against the Golden Lions and I can’t see them having improved in a week.

Why would Durban be any different from JHB?
In fact if it was JHB everyone would be up in arms screaming what a shithole Joburg is and they should never host a test again.
Try So’oialo… right hand corner
