Seriously!!!??? How on earth does this guy keep RJVR out of contention? Can somebody please explain to me what it is that i’m missing? When last can anyone remember Jessica doing anything noteworthy? His major contribution today was missing a tackle on an almost static England player.

Absolutely useless, there on reputation. Simalane had a great for the bull, joined the line well, good passing, but also guilty of holding on too long. The. We have Henco, the real break out. 

We could have had at least 10 form players capped this season

He knows the system, even though he does not appear to be part of it when he plays. He is just nowhere on attack. Has no idea how to read the game.

Outside of Am, we don't have one test quality outside centre. In fact, most I wouldn't even consider a true outside centre. Kriel is the best at hand under the circumstances.

I totally disagree. RJVR has been test quality for about 6 years now and superior to Kriel throughout. Moodie looks like he’d do a better job than Kriel even with his shoelaces tied together. …and then there’s Henko. An absolute monster with a rare rugby brain.

I don't know much about Henko, but I haven't seen anything close to Am. We like runners at 13, shoehorning players into the position. They just don't have the knack to mark down a position that is quite nuanced. Especially on defence. Kriel has moments of solidity that would would make him my number two at this point.

Doos knows fuck all Henco v Wyk looks really classy at 13, Janse v Rensburg was very good there for the Sharks And I think Xamlashe the ex Griquas captain and now with the Lions looks a real class act. He reminds me of Am If Similane could add some muscle he could be very good at 13 Then of course Moodie played all his school rugby at 13 and Jake is aware of this, so no doubt we could see him at 13 for the Bulls sometime

What about playing him at 12

Top quality talent is a minority Saffex. Most teams have about 5 superstars in their line out even at the top level. Then you get a golden generation every so often. You list about 10 centres that you claim are elite, yet not one of them has even vaguely shown any kind of such ability. Even Damian, your big star, has failed badly, as seen by his output compared to the great centres of the game. Some measure of perspective.

I never said elite I said they were good and we would only know if we played them. You speak shit and saying there is no talent at 13, I’m telling you there is

Denny if we are going to change 12, it has to be Willemse at 12 Moodie is a finisher, bence wing or 13, he is not seen as a creator at 12
