After looking at the performances of Coenie Oosthuizen over the last few weeks and at Marcell van der Merwe - I came to the conclusion that both are not Springbok material.  Matter of fact the furthest I can see the latter going ia as a bench player for the Bulls.


I think at this stage the following are the players that could be considered as props for the Springbok team are -


Tightheads     Koch and Malherbe

Looseheads   Kitshoff and Nyakane

Malherbe is not in Coenie's league. The scrums are always good until Malherbe subs on for Koch then we lose our dominance and Malherbe can be spotted face down on the deck canted inwards.

 Balls as per normal.   What has Coenie produced to justify this sudden loyalty from Mozart?

None of Coenie, Malherbe or van der Merwe are great scrummagers. But Connie has started against NH test teams and been okay, while adding much more in general play than Malherbe. 
Malherbe is another myth.

 Mike your take on rugby is very limited so don't worry it means very little to me. So what exactly did v/d Merwe do yesterday that was wrong. I take it you missed the bit of commentary that informed us all of just how much he steadied the scrum in the previous match against the Saders. Yesterday when there was an issue with the scrum the call went against Mellett at 1 but you are toooo thick to pick up on that.
Now here is a challenge ignorant man. I have both games recorded so point out the issues of Coenie and v/d Merwe to me instead of making up your usual shit about players.
You really are piss poor and I can see why Moz finds you an irritation. It's your rugby ignorance that is the issue.

 Not necessary to make a personal attack.   If you watch the scrums from the time Van der Merwe came on you would notice that the scrums are not stable and that it at times go backwards rather than be stable or going forwards.
Ehy is it that Nyakane - whose real position is loosehead and has been such when playing for the Cheetahs is being used by the Bulls in absence of Kruger?   If van der Merwe was a good enough Tighthead would he not take over from Kruger?
Coenie has been weak for the past three games and has given away a very substantial number of penalties in the process.   I know the refereeing was putrid in the  Crusaders game - but why was it in evidence again this past weekend?  That happened despite the referees being alerted to deal with the scrumming issue effectively - Coenie's  scrumming was again a real problem this weekend.

Your ignorance is irritating.

Coenie is the worst tighthead scrumager in the competition. The scrum allways collapses on his side. 
He is the best prop outside of the scrum, but most props make mince meat out him in the scrums.

You must realize whom we are dealing with here.  Mozart hates Malherbe with a vengeance since he became a threat to his national treasure - Jannie du Plessis.  Saffex will always only look at the size of players and come up with his wish list.
