‘Recalculating with the exact dates of birth for the true starting lineups, the precise average starting ages are:New Zealand (All Blacks): 28 years and 6 months South Africa (Springboks): 30 years and 7 months’……that from AI.

Two years, ….not as great a gap as one thought. I was guessing closer to 3 years. But this Saturday with Pollard for Sacha and Kolisi for PdV, we add about 18 team years. So the gap will be a bit more than 3 years.
