"I doubt that the springbok players will read this small note from the depths of a currently very dark London, but if these words should somehow find their way, please let them know this. We are proud of you. You have carried yourselves like gentleman. You have played outstanding rugby and lifted your game when needed. You have always spoken well of the other teams and have never taken any game for granted. You have always been humble, always pushed yourselves and have carried our hopes and dreams.
If karma and trumpet blowing alone have anything to do with Saturday, then England should lose. But we all know that in World Cups, passes, ref decisions and cosmic forces can all go wrong on the night, and England may take the cup. But, if this final does come down to rugby, talent and pure unbridled passion; then my boys, you will once more be men.
Keep calm heads while England lose theirs and keep the mental strength. Don't let anger cloud your judgment, and for God's sake, don't let Johnny kick! Win or lose, you have a nation behind you that is proud.
And, if you can go that last step, find it in yourselves to give that one last push ... for the pride and sanity of your nation: please oh please bury their sorry English asses."
