# Rugby: The statistics won’t help to predict the outcome when South Africa and England meet at Twickenham in London for the 24th time today. The Springboks have won 12 of the previous matches and the hosts 11. One of the earliest encounters between the two countries, in 1932, produced a world record that still stands to this day. Springbok winger Jerry Brand kicked a dropgoal which measured a whopping 77.7-metres from the point of impact to where it landed in the stands. The Boks won 7-nil.
