Willemse was horrible at fullback. Nkosi had a poor outing. Kwagga was a zero against the Bools And du Preez was his usual bumbling self.

Willemse was slightly better than Gelant Nkosi was good Kwagga was better than any other 6, despite spilling too many balls Dan was the best 8 on show

Papier has good close quarter passing, but a very, very poor long pass. In fact, this seems to be a problem amongst all of our scrumhalves to some degree. I'd take Schreuder over Papier.

Disagree there is nothing wrong with his long pass at all. His service was crisp and sharp. I wondered what all the hype was about when it came to this guy given his elevation to test squad from nowhere. He has impressed me this season. Looks a good understudy to Faf. Is busy and full of running. Schreuder was good very underrated player should have won many Bok caps by now when you consider the utterly useless Ross Cronje has a handful of caps

The fact is that Mozart actually suggested that Coetzee should be the no 8 and u a way I agree with him -  but that is a close call/   

There are two other players where  I disagree with you and that is in respect of Jenkins v s Schickerling/    Personally I think two line-out steals by the latter seals it for me though it really is a close call.   The other one is he scrummie - I think Schreuder on the day was better than Papier, but that is also a close call.

Coetzee impressed me he looks a good prospect. Is strong, breaks tackles. JD was good but Jenkins was better with ball in hand and 15 tackles was pretty impressive Schreuder was good but I preferred the zip of Papier
