 The English will be building themselves up as favourites as usual.

They have entered another new era- as defined by a new coach and world cup flop.

They are in a rebuilding phase for the next Worldcup in England- 

Anyone giving them any chances to win any tests?

"They have entered another new era- as defined by a new coach and world cup flop"

LOL! Much like the 2011 Springboks aye boetjie? Honestly, I give the Poms about as much chance as any English team touring the Republic......about 25-35%. Write them off at your own peril. They're still a capable team and could easily upset the pie cart with regards to South African hubris.  I just cant slum it as an English fan so I'll be supporting the Bokke. Should be a good tour though,  especially now you okes dont have the same ol' EYOT excuses to hide behind if the unthinkable ever did happen.

Good luck to the Bokke. I'm more concerned about the touring Paddies. They could take their first ever AB scalp this year.

 The two teams are probably on a par if we talk about "rebuilding".  Except SA will have very little time to get together and group as a team whilst the Poms have already had that opportunity.  Maybe they have a 50-50 chance, only time will tell.
