South Africa coach Peter De Villiers has named a very powerful and experienced team for the trip to the Cardiff, including captain and World Cup-winning hooker John Smit in the changed position of tight-head prop.It also includes what some have said is the world's best back row of Schalk Burger, Juan Smith and Pierre Spies who will be the powerhouse that De Villiers hopes will drive them to victory.

Gavin Henson will at long last be back for Wales in the centre but there is no place but the bench for half backs, Dwayne Peel and James Hook, Wales have selected instead a half back pairing of Gareth Cooper and Stephen Jones.
