Nortje and the cursed Bok jersey, Rassie buttering up Prendergast, England hate watch v Argentina

Shaun and Thala preview the weekend's Autumn Nations Series fixtures including South Africa trying to overcome their hoodoo in Dublin against Ireland.

We look at the Springbok team selected by Rassie with the big calls made on Nortje starting and what is the likelihood he gets a red card on Saturday and Canan Moodie starting on the wing. With Ireland we break down the threats of Jamison Gibson-Park and Caelan Doris and why the likes of Garry Ringrose, Bundee Aki and James Lowe could have big games this weekend.

Then we touch on all the internationals being played this weekend. This includes could Wales make a match facing a second string All Black side and what pressure will Razor be under if the All Blacks mess that up. In Paris, France will be looking to get back to winning ways at the Stade de France and we debate whether the Wallabies will let go of the rope if they fall behind. The game of the weekend might either be Georgia v Japan with big world rankings and World Cup implications or England trying to extend their winning streak hosting Argentina and how much we will laugh if Los Pumas upset the English.

Finally we discuss the World Men's Player of the Year and World Breakthrough Player of the Year nominations and debate whether all 3 South Africans should be in that list.
