Although it is obvious that he is a better wing where he can use his pace and running skill, instead of at outside centre where he is a defensive liability.
The front on tackling was hopeless. Not a natural tackler at all. Pieterson and Rhule will bolster the wings for next years Super 15.
I am optimistic as now the teams will be much stronger. We just need some more coaches like Mitchell involved.
I am not convinced about Robert Dupreez as a coach. He seems like another forwards coach- even though he was a back.
