And so did Akker van der Merwe also Saturday last week.
Mozart, if Itsabutt is an athlete, what does that make Keiran Read who gassed Itsabutt in a test at Loftus (?) in 2015 (I think). An Olympic 100m prospect?
Ben Smith is and has always been a tad slow for a fullback/wing. I well remember Tim Nanai-Williams standing him up and going around him in Dunedin a few years back in a Chiefs vs Landers game. Smith didn't get within 2 metres of him and relies on brains and guile to get past defenders.
Bent Read has never been the same since Vermuelen settled his hash. Bent read lost all confidence and retired to the wing where his lack of pace was exposed.
The big fear for wee Ben Smith is that he might by mistake run into Eben and disintegrate.

Indeed, he's never been the quickest and it's part of what gives me hope for Gallant as long term Bok 15.
