He was very average against the Bulls. Mostly a crashball with no offloads(and some people were considering him a center!!!). I would not say he played badly but probably just below average
Nineteen runs, one tackle beaten.....toothless. It will be nice to have some punch back there.

Give us the full stats please. We all know you pick and choose what stats you want to use - do let us jhave the full stats please - then we can make up our own minds as to what is the facts in this case.
FB Taute 0/0 0 8/7/19 110 0 1 1 1 3/1 1/0 0 0/0
W Habana 0/0 0 0/6/8 100 1 5 1 3 4/1 0/0 0 0/0
There you go Ou Maaik. You can see the Bulls kicked a lot on the Stormers back 3, giving plenty of run back chances. I give you the comparison with habana to show effective and ineffective running.
Bryan averaged 8.5 m a carry. Taute averaged 5.7m.
Bryan beat 5 defenders and made one clean break in 8 carries....Taute beat 1 defender in 19 carries.
Tell me again how he is a "running fullback" or was that Dave?
Ou Maaik, I can't believe you take anything Moffie says about rugby seriously.
I know it's a bit sad and pathetic but the truth is, all of Moffie's rugby views and player preferences are determined by Dave . . . in that Moffie will invariably say the opposite of what Dave says . . . and then he spends the rest of his life trying to justify his childish and ignorant bias with the most stupid, selective and nonsensical "stats" imaginable. We all know that Moffie is Dave's little puppet and doesn't have any real views of his own. Dave pretty much shapes Moffie's hilarious rugby "knowledge".
My advice, just treat Moffie for what he is . . . the board clown! It's going to be very funny watching the pompous old windbag trying to convince real rugby pundits that Marcell Coetzee is a crap player over the next few months. Just enjoy it and have a laugh.
Well it's nice to see you finally have the courage to admit your heritage. But speaking about rugby "knowledge"....weren't you the bugger who said the Boks have no chance in the 2007RWC?
My guess is I will be proven right about Coetzee.....just as I was about your big picks like Watson, Deysel, and Russell at flyhalf. Here is one of your Bok teams posted for easy reference:
Carstens
Brits
BJ Botha
Skeate
Matfield
Watson
Smith
AJ Venter
Pienaar
Brad Barritt/Earl Rose/ Meyer Bosman
O Ndungane
JdV
Fury
A Ndungane
JP Pietersen.
Some epic calls there .......what were you thinking when you picked Barritt as a 10?
Waaaaaaaaaahahahahahaha!
Meyer Bosman at flyhalf? Are you sure that wasn't your team, Moffie . . . I mean, you were the big fan of Bosman at flyhalf . . . and who else on this board calls Jaque Fourie "Fury"? Me?
Uh -oh, BUSTED again!
Earl Rose and the Ndungane twins? AJ Venter? Schalk Brits? Ross Skeate? Pffffffffffffhahahahahahaha! You sucked all this crap out of your thumb, Moffie. Anyone who knows me would know that I would never have included any of those at any stages of their careers.
I'd say "nice try", Moffie, but it wasn't. If you're going to lie then at least try to make it believable.
BUSTED!
Rooinek (aka Jala-rooi-arse) - I see the editor has downgraded you back to an orange peeler with only 10 posts.
Are these 10 posts the only ones that made sense?
No much as I would like to give you a pass on this one RooiAAS I have the evidence right in front of me....posted 5 April 2006. About the flyhalves you say:
"You'll notice I've copped out of selecting a flyhalf. No-one's put up their hands yet and I'm hoping Andre Pretorius makes a succesful come back."
The name that is glaringly absent of course is Butch James, or as you called him "Bitch " James. You never could quite get this flyhalf thing. But old Butch would never have been in any of your teams.

And you still support Morne Steyn - with all his aimless kicking. Why don't you compare apples with apples and really add the stats on Kirchner? Habana is special and very illusive - reputedly one of the best wings in the world. So let us have two full backs competing - not a wing and a full back.
Feel free to pursue this Ou Maaik
Mozart
Back to the DeJongh situation - because your arguments on De Jongh was not supported by stats - you disregarded the stats completely. Now it is the same with Kircner - the present Springbok incumbent. Objective - my ass.
Objective....your ass? Honestly Ou Maaik you are looking for a porn site!
Taute had a solid match, he was better than Kirchner and he will be missed. It will be back to another wee fullback in Joe with a good chance wee de Jongh will be back as well. The Sharks are going to cream this below par Stormers side
Twatbok: "Rooinek (aka Jala-rooi-arse) - I see the editor has downgraded you back to an orange peeler with only 10 posts."
Twatbok, please tell me you're just pretending to be this stupid!
LMAO!
"And you still support Morne Steyn - with all his aimless kicking"
Mike you have to understand the difference between aimless kicking and tactical kicking. Morne won the game for the bulle and was justifiably man of the match. His tactical kicking was superb.
