He doesn't have his boots with him but 2011 World Cup hero Stephen Donald is confident the All Blacks will come out on top in Sunday's semifinal clash with South Africa.

Donald, who kicked a penalty that put the All Blacks up 8-0 in the 2011 final, is leading a tour party in London and told ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Megan that despite rain forecast for Twickenham, the All Blacks will be fine.

"It's not going to be bad for them but I think it will be good for the Springboks. They probably don't have the backline power that we do and they're probably going to base everything around their big forward pack," the 23-test All Black said.

"But I don't think it's going to be detriment to the All Blacks."

Donald was asked if he had his boots, which he said has become a recurring gag since he landed in London.

"That gag is going down quite a bit at the moment."

He added that if the All Blacks beat their old rivals on Sunday, then the World Cup should be theirs for a second straight time.

"This weekend is our final so if we get through this one I think we're fairly well sorted," he added.

Donald predicts the All Blacks will win 33-14.
