More than useful = Good enough for Currie Cup level.
Can't compare to PSD, Eben, Lood...

 No not yet and he looks far more than just cc level. Big lump who gets stuck in.

His work rate looks like that of Willemse....
Not something we need in the Bok setup.
I prefer lumps of muscle (Eben, PSD)
But I'll keep an eye out.
Maybe I havent been watching closely enough,

What are your thoughts on du Toit (sharks prop).
Looks like the real deal!

Well Kleyn is bigger than PSDT at 2.03m and 120kg

 

Thomas du Toit is one hell of a prospect. He looks ready for test rugby aged 19.

 

The fact that he dominated Franks the AB incumbent speaks volumes.

 With Etzebeth, Ruan and Kleyn the Mighty Stormers will be strong at lock.Thomas Du Toit is a tremendous prospect and will form part of an amazing young Bok pack.

 Saffex...
My point re Klein had more to do with his work rate as opposed to his weight.
I think we have about 8 locks in the pecking order ahead of him.

I long for the day when PSD and Eben play together. Could be a really explosive combination.

On a seperate note, I am so happy that Princess Spies is nowhere near the Bok setup.
Im quite happy for him to stay injured and let the Bulls pay him his monthly salary to stay away for good!

Nothing personal! Im just a Bok supporter after all!
