Rugby World Cup - Pool C - England Team, Head Coach Clive Woodward has announced an unchanged side to meet South Africa on Saturday.

 

Clive Woodward England's Head Coach has announced his team to play South Africa this Saturday at the Subiaco Oval in Perth.  All injuries would seem to have disappeared as Matt Dawson is fit and the team is unchanged from last week's outing against Georgia. 

Other injury doubts Mike Tindall and Andy Gomarsall are both fit and  Kyran Bracken will take a place on the bench.

It does look like Clive may have been playing one or two 'Mind Games' perhaps?  We have to hope, that this is the case because it would seem there has been one or two miraculous healings going on, apart from the broken toe of Grewcock that is!  

The England team to face the Springboks reads as follows:

ENGLAND:

 J Lewsey (Wasps); J Robinson (Sale Sharks), W Greenwood (Harlequins), M Tindall (Bath), B Cohen (Northampton); J Wilkinson (Newcastle), M Dawson (Northampton); T Woodman (Gloucester), S Thompson (Northampton), P Vickery (Gloucester), M Johnson (Leicester, Captain), B Kay (Leicester), R Hill (Saracens), N Back (Leicester), L Dallaglio (Wasps).

Replacements: J Leonard (Harlequins), L Moody (Leicester), K Bracken (Saracens), P Grayson (Northampton), D. Luger( Perpignan), M Corry (Leicester), D West
