14 Johnny Kotze, 13 Huw Jones, 12 Jaco Taute, 11 Pat Howard
Will be interesting to see how they go vs Sharks. Coleman should give them plenty of ball. Great opportunity to showcase what they can do vs:
14 Odwa Ndungane, 13 JP Pietersen, 12 Andre Esterhuizen, 11 S'bura Sithole,
Taute a Vodacom man? Nah I have heard him called a class act.
Fatties vs Fattie Esterhuizen ....a glorious moment in South African rugby. One thing is for sure, a Fattie will win....think I'll play golf.
Its a stupid backline......Howard should be at 13, Taute at 15.....with Kotze and Jones on the wing.
At least they have got rid of useless de Jongh
Kaboooooooom what we have here is a major moment folks. Did you feel the earth move......Dave has made his once a year tectonic shift on a player.
He wants Taute to move from centre to fullback.....kabooooooom!
For years he has maintained Taute is Bok centre material, that he didn't miss Israel Dagg to lose the home test against the ABs in 2012....that HM is a fool not chosing Taute at c entre.
And now this......kaboooooom!
Huh.....what are you on about.......its about utilising the players at your disposal......Taute is good at 13 or 15, not 12........Howard is a quality 13, so I'd play him there, not wasted on the wing.
I have never rated Taute as a 12.........therefore if I am playing Howard at 13, it makes sense to play Taute at 15.......helloooooooooooo.........what the hell has that got to do with the utter bullshit you have come up with.......geez get a grip Moz.
I'll spell it out for you Taute is a quality 13 or 15......I'd be happy to see him in either position.
As for Taute losing us a test at 13, that is another load of typical bullshit from you.....fact is Taute has already proved a better 13 than useless de Jongh.......it was that same year that Taute was good at 13 for the Boks and where de Jongh was absolutely useless against England......he was an insult.
JJ and Taute are far better 13's than little de Jongh.
de Jongh is not S15 standard......he has proved that for the past 2 seasons......evidenced by last weeks weakest performance of all the SA 13's on display.
Hope you are able to comprehend my clarification on Taute, I'll paint pictures if need be
Dave, You shouldn't venture into any debate on backline play.....only a blithering idiot dares to speak about something he knows nothing about.
Throwing out names of players is not the answer and doesn't come close to opening up decent debate about the subject matter.....your monotonous "class act" rubbish doesn't cut it.
Denny offering help where most needed.
