Sounds convenient or is it ironic at a time when blacks are supposed to be added to the team they're being kicked out.
Who were those two wingers that played for the Baby boks? Turned the game around against our junior ABs. They're the type of players you need in the squad . Players of the future perhaps.
Too many whites in the team don't you think? To be honest the All Blacks could also do with a few more Maoris to add some starch to the forwards .
At the moment Messam, Dagg , Smith and Cruden are the only Maoris in our team. Tanerau Latimer would be my next pick after an awesome season with the Chiefs
So South Africa have dropped Cheetahs prop Trevor Nyakane for supposed repeated breaches of team protocol as coach Heyneke Meyer announced a 26-man touring squad to Argentina for Saturday's Rugby Championship test in Mendoza.
Nyakane made his test debut against Italy in June but has been axed from the touring party that left for South America on Sunday for unspecified ill-discipline, the South African Rugby Union confirmed in a statement.
He will be replaced by uncapped Griquas front-rower Lourens Adriaanse, one of four new faces from the Springbok matchday squad that thumped Argentina 73-13 in their Rugby Championship opener at Soccer City on Saturday.
Also included are scrumhalf Piet van Zyl, who replaces Fourie du Preez, the veteran Japan-based number nine not being available for the away legs of the competition for South Africa.
Loose forward Marcell Coetzee has replaced injured hooker Chilliboy Ralepelle, while Jano Vermaak has been added as a third scrumhalf option to compete with Ruan Pienaar and Van Zyl
