South Africa got their World Cup preparations under way in style in Cape Town, as they hammered an invitational World XV 46-10 at Newlands.

Video no longer available annoyingly
Anyone out there watch it? If so, how did S Armitage get on?
From the clip above, Armitage looked off the pace and was barely visible on the clip. I think having watched this, I am glad that he Lancaster held firm and did not select him for the RWC team.
Are there any other highlight vids? The rugby Gods are smothering the game’s ability to get bigger. There are tens of thousands of fans here in US who want to watch these games.
Hear hear! (from a fellow US-based fan)
