ok so he has a new hair cut- but surely Juan De Jong should be playing instead of him.
His first touch of the ball he gave the worst kick of the match, the 2nd touch gave away a penalty, the 3rd and anything more I cant remember.
Surely the stormers should switch Jean to outside center and De Jong to inside Center.
Agree 100%
de Jong would make one helluva impact off the bench.
People keep going on about his defense and tackling.
...look at the Super Rugby team he plays for... they have the best defense in the competition!
Surely that would mean that he is no slouch when defending.
Meisie has had his opportunities. He is a decent provincial player, but is certainly not Bok material!
For some godforsaken reason he appears to have the gift of fortune to sustain a Bok jersey..........The only concern is that HM puts him there because we are weak in that area? Why else has PDV and now HM shown such loyalty to a player that we all agree lacks the skills set, intelligence and class we need at international level????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
How sad that Jaque Fourie chose money above the Green and Gold...
Agree with what you said about Olivier - what is he doing in the squad? I was very liberal in his case by ging him a 4 points out of 10 . Should have been a 2 out of 10 allocation. He was pronmising better in 2007 - but since then he has done nothing to justify inclusion in the squad. Meyer must have a soft spot for him.
However, I do not think Fourie would have been better in the backline situation. Steyn at 12 is a good option and I would not leave De Villiers out - so what would have happened even if he was available? He ould have come off the bench - but we really have better options than to hark back to the past.
