Steroid Boy was poor yesterday as expected. Every change in the front row appeared to be an improvement from the starting one.
The pack got better as the game went on, but the tackling and positional play of the backs were poor.
Acker seems to be a player that understands the game plan. His throwing in the lineout is much better
In all honesty ... I don't think you'll find anyone worse than Ralepelle.
Rassie has made some very few poor decisions so far, but none can compare to his utter stupidity in selecting this useless quota.
Funny how the three poor decisions that come to mind have something to do with quotas and his "fixing the past" quest. Stick ... Kolisi as a 6 and Bok capt ... and now Ralepelle.
I think we'll see many more stupid decisions coming from Rassie. He has the gift of the gab but that's where it ends. We can already see similarities between him and Coetzee.
They're the same kind of fool.
I share some serious disappointment about the initial selection and appointments made by Erasmus and has a lingering problem with his initial steps as well. One would have to wait and see what follows this week.
I think he is buyiong time at this stage to get rid of the rubbish. He knows perfectly well that Kolisi is not theideal captain - but in the absence of both Whiteley and Etzebeth he really does nt have a choice sine Kolisi is the captain of the Stormers and the other franchises have either temporary captains or are aptained by players he would not select.
One would have to wait and see - but nobody can be as bad as Meyer and Coerzee were. .
