Let’s hope that we move on from some of the 30 plus year olds that are not starters like Willie, Mapimpi, Reinach, Koch, Nyakane and Mostert
I’d like to see the following players considered for the EOYT squad:
Fullbacks: Fassi / Jordan Hendrikse / Willemse / Gelant
Wings: Kolbe / Arendse / Green / Tambwe / Davids / Moodie / Edwil vd Merwe
Outside centre: Am / Jessie / Moodie / Jurenzo Julius / Henco v Wyk
Inside centre: de Allende / Esterhuizen / Willemse / Hooker / David Kriel
Flyhalves: Pollard / Libbok / Masuku
Scrumhalves: Faf / Williams / Hendrikse / Nohamba / Jantjies / Papier / vd Bergh
Loosehead: Ox / Steenkamp / Mchunu / Wessels
Hooker: Marx / Mbonambi / Dweba / AH Venter / Grobelaar
Tighthead: Malherbe / Wilco / Thomas / Sadie / Hanro Jacobs / Klopper
Locks: Eben / RG / Jenkins / Moerat / Ruan Vermaak / Ruben v Heerden / Andre Smith / JF v Heerden / Nortje / Rahl / Cobus Wiese / JD Schickerling
Loosies: Kolisi / Kwagga / Buthelezi / v Staaden / PSDT / BJ Dixon / Ruan Venter / Vincent Tsituka / Ludwig / JL du Preez / Dan du Preez / Roos / Hanekom, Emmanuel Tsituka / Elrigh Louw / Gumede / Wiese

Yeah he has yet to stamp his mark at test level but I’ve seen him be physical and effective for the Stormers
His problem playing for the Boks is that he has to live off crumbs - no consecutive selection - that is hard
Same thing happened to Wiese when he started and now he has settled, same is happening to Elrigh Louw, he looks better each game
I’m not giving up on Moerat he is a good player and at 122kg certainly fits the physical criteria
Time will tell

75 people in a 35-man squad. Many of those players have not done enough to be selected, or they have been selected and failed. (e.g. The Creatine Twins).
Potential Boks have to be winning man of the match in lower-level games to be considered.
Moerat has a good name for a rugby player - but is unfortunately not test standard. He just goes missing and is rarely seen on the pitch.

Shark you are fucking dumb at times
Did I say that was the squad - I said squad from that group
Shut the fuck up about the du Preez twins you have always been fucking clueless when it comes to them much like you have with most things rugby

...and Wiese, hey Pakie.
He took over from Duane no problem at all.
Surely one of the smartest players in the team.

Nonsense Dixon looked good in his first test, has been solid since
Wiese was shit when he started but has settled into imposing his brute strength
Now if only powder puff was built like him
