1 Romain  Ntamack

2 Ellis Genge

4 Damien Dud Allende

5 Alan Lose Jones

Your  players are not flavor of the day, press favorites. Hence they may be good or bad, but they surely aren’t overrated.

Whereas the ‘world beaters’ on my list have consistently under performed the hype. I’m not saying they are all incompetent….except for Dud. But they aren’t stellar. And have never come through in the WC for example.

Overrated the bunch.

Mostert plays his heart out each and every game and so does Smith.

Two players that are mainstay players in the Springbok team.

Dave you praise Erasmus each and every time and he is the one who ensures that the teams playing in the RWC are the top players thats why Moster and Smith are always in the team to represent RSA.

If you think they are not Springbok material they are selected because Erasmus insists on their inclusion so he must fit into the same category as these two as per your quote ...... "SHIT".

Surely you quote really fits the #6 Springbok player.

Mostert is a way bigger contributor than Lomp as we saw in the 2019 WC  final. Made more tackles per minute than Dud Toit and never missed one in the playoffs. And he is much suprior to Lomp  in the lineouts.

Except this crossing the advantage line never shows up in any stats…..it lives only in the blinded recesses of your brain. Mostert is a toothless ball carrier, but so are Dud and Lomp.

Exactly how does half a meter contribute to the next phase. Dud Toit is a giraffe. Occasionally he gets open territory and gallops along quite nicely. But square him up with a tackler and it’s timber!

Drivel…Dud Toit is easily toppled by the first tackler. To the extent he struggles forward a bit makes a turnover more likely. Mostert recognizes there is no benefit in offering up a turnover and puts his effort into securing the ball.

I prefer an Ollivon or a Savea who can beat tackles. Dud Toit is  a dead end runner off good ball.

We keep hearing about his tackles in the final. And yes after a lackluster tournament he raised his work rate in the final. But Mostert from the lock position matched him in tackles per minute played…and never missed any 

What else does Dud do apart from tackle….no turnovers, no offloads, no tackle busts, very little in the lineouts…no kick receptions except occasionally off kick offs.

All those process Dud tackles are easily reassigned and how many turnovers do we miss because he simply can’t take advantage of the ball on the ground?

Best I can tell he is a good process tackler and occasionally works a pick and go. Vastly overrated. He would be in my next five overrated players

Saffex, I honestly don't know why you even try debating with a biased and ignorant rugby noob like Moffie.

The day this blinkered old fool gives a tiny bit of credit to the likes of his pet hats like Rassie or PSdT I'll give him some credibility but as long as he keeps bashing them and pretending he doesn' t have egg all over his fat face I'll treat him with utter contempt.

We all make good calls and bad calls. The lengths Moffie goes to to try and prove he never ever gets anything wrong is nothing short of childish and laughable.

From the man who said we won the WC in spite of Rassie, not because of him….and then, wanting to be popular totally changed his tune.
