By Phil Harlow

1548: "In France on holiday, rain all week. Was hoping the game would cheer us up...

"Not a bad effort given the guys not available."

1545: "Re comment by Simon in Ashford (1529).

"It was game over before the tour started!"

80 mins: The final whistle goes, and it's another handsome South Africa win against their World Cup opponents.

England's players can hold their heads up high though - a brave effort in the most trying of circumstances.

77 mins: TRY South Africa 55-22 England
Just like last week, South Africa are putting their foot down in the closing stages against a desperately tired England.

Jonny Wilkinson loses the ball and Bobby Skinstad snaps it up before a lovely one-handed offload to the marauding Pierre Spies who bursts through two tackles to score.

Butch James adds the conversion.

75 mins: TRY South Africa 48-22 England
An absolutely top-notch try from Bryan Habana. The winger steps inside Toby Flood and then explodes into life, getting up to full speed in the blink of an eye and then performing an outrageous series of feints to leave Nick Abendanon grasping at thin air.

A memorable score, but Butch James puts the conversion wide.

71 mins: England win a scrum against the head, and scrum-half Shaun Perry dances up the touchline to relieve the pressure.

69 mins: A blindside move from Ricky Januarie, John Smit and Juan Smith exposes some tired England defence and South Africa force England to put into a line-out 5m from their tryline.

1529: "It's game over for England."

65 mins: TRY South Africa 43-22 England
After several minutes of mucho macho stuff from the South Africa forwards, a quick ball from Ricky Januarie finds Percy Montgomery cutting the perfect line to score without a finger being laid on him.

The big full-back picks himself up to kick the conversion.

61 mins: Hats off to England. They win a scrum as South Africa's muscular approach runs out of steam.

59 mins: England are defending desperately as South Africa's big men batter the tryline.

54 mins: TRY South Africa 36-22 England
Have South Africa just broken the spirit of this courageous England side? Ben Skirving trys to force a pass in South Africa's 22 and the lightning-quick Bryan Habana races onto the ball to score, despite a fantastic chase back from Mathew Tait.

Percy Montgomery makes the conversion.

52 mins: TRY South Africa 29-22 England
A dagger in the heart of English hopes as Pierre Spies bursts off the back of a ruck and goes through four attempted tackles to score.

Andy Gomarsall, Jonny Wilkinson, Jamie Noon and Mahnus Lund all miss their man as the powerful number eight scores an individual try of some note. Percy Montgomery kicks the easy conversion.

50 mins: PEN South Africa 22-22 England
Schalk Burger puts in a naughty tackle on Ben Skirving - late and with his shoulder - to give away a penalty.

Jonny Wilkinson needs no second invitation from just to the left of the posts and levels the scores.

47 mins: Bryan Habana returns to action to get South Africa back to full strength.

43 mins: TRY South Africa 22-19 England
South Africa move ahead again with the best try of the match from second row Bakkies Botha.

An attack full of purpose and power blasts England away down the left flank, and two long passes put Botha away on the right with Mathew Tait left with the almost impossible task of trying to stop him on the tryline. Percy Montgomery misses with his conversion.

41 mins: An encouraging start for England as a chip ahead from Dan Scarbrough puts South Africa under real pressure, but CJ van der Linde does very well to get into the field of play and eventually win a penalty.

1458: Everybody's back out for the second half, and neither side have made any changes. Jonny Wilkinson kicks off for England.

1456: "Is this game Jonny Wilkinson vs South Africa? Sounds like Jonny is carrying England yet again..."
JP in New York, via e-mail

40 mins: TRY South Africa 17-19 England
Goodness gracious me. Don't worry, the internet isn't broken - England really are leading South Africa at half-time, thanks to a Dan Scarbrough interception try just before the break.

Scarbrough plucks Pierre Spies's optimistic pass out of the air and ambles in unopposed from halfway to score under the posts and give Jonny Wilkinson the simplest of kicks to put England ahead.

I'm saying nothing - at this stage.

36 mins: PEN South Africa 17-12 England
South Africa are down to 14 men as Bryan Habana, perhaps a little harshly, is yellow carded for a deliberate knock-on as England put pressure on the tryline.

Jonny Wilkinson curls in a lovely kick from close to the right touchline, and England are just five points behind with half-time in sight.

32 mins: PEN South Africa 17-9 England
England are not giving this up, by any means and an intelligent and probing attack ends in a penalty for England which Jonny Wilkinson has no trouble in converting.

30 mins: TRY South Africa 17-6 England
Oh dear. South Africa's pack destroy the England scrum as they power forward. White shirts are scattered everywhere and the formidable presence of Schalk Burger makes no mistake as he picks up and buries his way over from a few centimetres out.

South Africa's front five look more than a little pleased with themselves, and Percy Montgomery improves their mood by kicking the conversion.

29 mins: A rugby league style offload from Bakkies Botha opens up England, and the ball sweeps wide to Akona Ndungane who chips ahead and then forces a knock-on from Mike Brown to keep England in trouble.

27 mins: PEN South Africa 10-6 England
Jonny Wilkinson slots a kick to keep England in contention after South Africa had gone offside.

24 mins: Dan Scarbrough puts in the mother of all big hits on Percy Montgomery, a classic man and ball effort which leaves both men in a heap. My ribs are hurting and I'm several thousand miles away.

A short time earlier, Springbok number eight Pierre Spies embarrassed England's defence, making 20m up the blindside and easing past Nick Easter and Jamie Noon.

22 mins: TRY South Africa 10-3 England
I spoke too soon. A hopeful kick over the top from Ricky Januarie looks to be going nowhere, but it lands on its point and springs back in the air past a despairing Jamie Noon and straight into Januarie's hands.

There was probably not a lot England could have done about that, to be fair. How much more bad luck can Brian Ashton's team take? Percy Montgomery adds the conversion just to rub it in.

20 mins: England turn the ball over again and Andy Gomarsall kicks ahead, but Bryan Habana races back and gains 50m with a lovely return clearance.

Whisper it, but England have competed like for like so far...

17 mins: South Africa are trying to spread the ball wide, but England's midfield defence is coping well so far. The Springboks run out of ideas, and England end up winning a penalty.

Unfortunately for England though, Jonny Wilkinson gets nowhere near the kick, with his effort falling 5m short of the posts.

15 mins: Didn't someone say Jonny Wilkinson shouldn't make so many tackles? The fly-half puts in a huge hit on Bryan Habana to turn over possession.

13 mins: Two bad handling errors in quick succession keep the pressure on England, with Jamie Noon and Mike Brown both spilling kicks.

10 mins: Nick Easter shows great strength to skittle Juan Smith out of the way as he takes the kick-off up. Smith hits his head on the ground, and then has his head trampled on by a team-mate for good measure. He goes off for stitches to be replaced by the prodigal son, Bobby Skinstad.

8 mins: PEN South Africa 3-3 England
Some respite for England as they win a penalty at the scrum after South Africa's front row goes down.

Scrum-half Andy Gomarsall is ecstatic, patting every member of England's front row on the bottom and chirping up with plenty of chat. Jonny Wilkinson slots the kick to get England level again.

6 mins: England lose their first line-out of the match as the imperious Victor Matfield snatches the ball at the front.

5 mins: The first possession Jonny Wilkinson gets is kicked up in the air to test Percy Montgomery, but England are offside to concede another penalty.

South Africa tap and go and have England on the rack, but a misplaced pass stops the move in its tracks.

3 mins: PEN South Africa 3-0 England
South Africa's enormous pack of forwards are relishing this and they drive fully 15m from a clean line-out before England concede another penalty for infringing at the subsequent breakdown.

Percy Montgomery makes no mistake with his second effort, and South Africa take the lead.

1400: An inauspicious start for England. Butch James puts snow on the kick-off, and Nick Easter knocks-on under pressure and England give away a penalty for offside.

South Africa try to make an early statement by going for goal but Percy Montgomery's on-target effort comes up short. A let-off for the tourists with barely 40 seconds on the clock.

1358: The South Africans stride down the tunnel to a huge reception from the home fans. They are significantly less pensive than their English counterparts, wearing the ominously focussed look of a team on a mission.

1356: Jonny Wilkinson jogs out onto the field with his team-mates strung out behind them. To a man, they look pensive and they immediately go into a tightly knit huddle.

1352: There's some top draw dancing going on from the pre-match entertainment, while some serious-faced Boks fans look on.

There's a healthy smattering of England fans among the crowd, but their flag-waving, understandably so, lacks conviction.

1340: England coach Brian Ashton admits he is the latest squad member to go down with the stomach virus that has run amok. Otherwise, the side is the same one that he announced on Friday.

"Don't turn over ball is a very strong message to take into this game," said Ashton. "If you eliminate those alone from last week, the scoreboard would have been a lot more respectable.

"We've got to manage the game better and put more pressure on South Africa. If we can do that, we'll see how they respond."

1330: Just half an hour to go before Brian Ashton's hugely under strength England side face the might of a resurgent South Africa at Loftus Versfeld stadium in Pretoria.

The Springboks ran rampant in a seven-try 58-10 thrashing in Bloemfontein last week, a record margin against England. They are red hot, no, make that white hot favourites to win this one. Possibly by even more.

South Africa will claim that gives them a massive mental boost for the crucial World Cup group stage match in Paris on 14 September.

England will insist they were missing at least 30 top players to start with and then lost more to injury and illness while on tour.

If England win though....

South Africa: Montgomery; A Ndungane, Olivier, De Villiers, Habana; James, Januarie; Steenkamp, Smit (capt), Van der Linde, Botha, Matfield, Burger, Smith, Spies.
Replacements: Carstens, Botha, Muller, Skinstad, Pienaar, Steyn, Willemse.
