Coetzee has really made a lot of changes, some rather unusual. We will have to see what the impact is. One thing which does make sense though is to put Lambie back at 15. He is a solid thinker and a good tackler in space. He doesn't have a huge boot but good enough. One wonders about him taking high balls though, it seems he will be right back on the horse.
Still the experiment of Lambie at Bok 10 was never a happy one, whereas he had some solid games at Bok 15....notably in the RWC2011.

Even if Pat has a cracker of a game, scoring a hat tricor breaking Nokwe's record, I personally don't think he should of been rushed back. All seems a bit knee jerk reaction no matter which way AC spins it.
Heres hoping he comes through unscathed.

Agree, xavi. A completely unwarranted risk.
It's not like these next two games mean anything. They're more like friendlies before the November tour. He could have given Lambie at least another few weeks to get some Currie Cup time and build up his confidence.
Really poor man management if you ask me.

The team stinks to high heaven and Mozart's only comment is on Lambie. What about the rest? Most are real duds - Lambie is one of the better players - but playing him out o f position to cater for the Donkey-kicker is really bad.
I warned you repeatedly on this site that Coetzee's appointment would be a massive mistake - but we have a guy like Mozart who supported the appointment. What a farce.

Agree on both. Both are much better flyhalves. Lambie in particular doesn't have the pace to be a fullback.

Both don't have prayer of being an international flyhalf. I think Lambie is far braver than Goosen, who bottled out under the high ball.....hence I prefer Lambie at 15.

Who asked you, Moffie? I was talking to Dave. If I want to know what the self-absorbed and childish liars of the world think about anything then I'll be sure to put your name in the text box.

Frans Steyn's the answer at 10 ... or is it Morne Steyn??
Not sure ... either Steyn will do!
One is a World Cup Champion (2007) and the other was part of the team that beat the British and Irish Lions ... back 2009.
