I think one has to look at the Super 15 squads of the various franchises to find others. 

WP15 at one stage provided a list of school players going to the various academies and one also have to look at the various Under 19 teams of the top franchises - The Bulls - the Sharks and WP - to get an idea of the talent available.   They last year had a training group in January aimed at the 2014 WC - but I could not find anything about it this year.

Last years Craven week showed better quality performances than in 2012 - which did not produce a good enough squad to win the WV in 2013 - and the signs are they h ave some really top players coming through for this year.

They get good and wholesome food here.  The mamas are all excellent cooks.   They  seem to grow bigger every generation.   Most of these guys will be in Super 15 next year as front line selections,

Problem is - they are not only big - they are fast as well.   I had Duhan van der Merwe as my avatar for a while,  He and Esterhuizen are the best of the backline players and he is only 18.  WTF - I am sorry for the NZ players against that lot.
