Many are saying SA have won the series and Baltimore is an exhibition match.

Assuming that's the case, who is your man of the series?

For me, the candidates would be Jordan, Marx and Oz.

And I'd give it to Marx.

What a player he is. As mentioned by both myself and Pakster, the day he hangs his boots up there will be a massive hole to fill at the Boks.

Who are your candidates and who wins it for you?

Pretty sure it's a 4 match series. Don't chicken out now cause you've had a rough time yesterday, Plummie.

@Plum it lost some altitude on the way here and I experienced it as a stomach roll, so I am in the bathroom at the moment.

Let's make this call after Baltimore.

I really don't like the fact that the last test is being played somewhere else but I'm certain it won't be played as an exhibition match.

It would be a forward as Cheslin and Willemse didn't play 3 matches.
Out of Ox, Marx, Eben Nortje and PSDT? For sheer effort its between Nortje and PSDT. For match turning incidents and effectiveness maybe Ox and Marx. I am going for OX although very little in it. Ox has become the complete package. Top loosehead in the world. Makes a lot of tackles. Nice and mobile and has passing and handling skills. The Bok scrum dominance is built around Ox.
Marx is simply the world's finest hooker.
