I had to take a chance in the team selection and is also hurt by the absence of Milner-Skudder. Since the AB test last year in Johannesburg I would not touch Nonu with a barge-pole. In the case of Milner-Skudder I was forced to bench him and keep Kriel - whom I had on the bench to start - not a very good exchange in my opinion.
Where I became unstuck was with Vito. In that case I was forced to bench him - I honestly felt that he would be selected ahead of Kaino by the time the comp closed. The format this year - with most teams not known by closing time is a serious headache.
My squad for the Round is as follows:-
Creevy, Strauss, Coles - in trouble with Strauss being on the benchDe Jager, EtzebethRobshaw, Pocock, WarburtonA SmithDan Carter (c)Kriel, Kuridrani, De Allende, FofanaBen Smith
Not ideal - but that is the best I could come up with by the time of team announcement .

Well I had no choice of selecting a side with one less player, Skudder is on my bench as cover for nonu. I Went nonu initially as he has been in great form, but SBW seems to be a fantasy machine. Sometimes been in great form does not always translate to fantasy. The format is a mess really, I mean in Super Rugby the games are all in one round. With the RWC, the Tonga Namibia game was on Wednesday, and game 2, two-three days later, it is a mess haha.
