England definitely have a weakness against South Africa. - Two World Cups - Duhan Van der Merwe
England are better in every single aspect of the game except for Having a Duhan van der Merwe, and that one area is costing them.

Today comes the real test for England. Iโve been more positive than others on the performances in the opening games, despite them being close. I think our style can match up against Scotland. I donโt know if I can take four consecutive Calcutta Cup losses. #GuinnessSixNations
