Could Lood have been more emphatic?

Simple answer NO....bye, bye wee Vic

 
It's a pity that Willemse never got a shot to show us his wares. I always rated him as Loods superior.

Perhaps now that Meyer's days are numbered we'll see him brought a little closer.

Even so ... only an obstinate fool would deny what Lood's brought to the park.

He is a talented young man, deserving of his starting spot in the national team.

Very impressive. We are fortunate to have such depth at lock.

Selecting Matfield and playing him again ahead of Lood would confirm Meyer's incompetence.

PSDT should also have been given a decent run at lock. He too is a talented youngster for the future.  

CC good to see you have worked your way past his baby face. Lood is a serious talent. 
We have more depth at lock than ever. 
Etzebeth, Lood, Willemse, PSDT and Jacques du Plessis are better than most countries starting locks.
