Really great team, would love to see Henco at 13 for the boks, but I'm a bit more conservative. Although, not sure what Jessica will offer at 13.
Good call on roos at 8.
Will know tomorrow what the brain trust is thinking
Henco v Wyk looks good. It will be interesting to see how he does in the B-team, and if he is one of the players that can push his way into the 1st team.
I need to see more of him play. He looked powerful in his game over the weekend, but I still need to see how smart he is.
His acceleration is awesome...not Gerber, who can ever be?..but stunnning glimpses already and his career only just started...
Yeah, I've been waiting to see what this kid has to offer. Saw a few YouTube clips of him a few years back but didn't want to get caught up in the hype and another Tim Swiel.
However, his ground work, positional play is amazing. So is his tracking in defence.
So it was good for Simalane to bail. Was at the lions on reputation.
I don't know when these players will ever learn that it is not all about attack. You need to be able to make an impact on defence and time your attacking skill. Not all out attack all the time
I can't believe I'm saying this, but we need to pick a team that can physically front up and have solid kick chase game.
Don't think having Kolbe at Fullback would help, neither does Wille to be honest.
Weather forecast is Rain on Saturday.
I spend a year living in Dublin and playing for Landsdown road, the very same stadium where the boks are playing against Ireland.
I can tell you, fancy footwork is not going to help you in those conditions. Neither do our backline have the skill to pass or use the tip pass the same way the Irish teams do.
So we need to beat them up front. Put pressure on them on attack and watch out for the loop pass out wide.
Mpimpi is a liability. But we have no Moody, so Mpimpi is only good kick chaser.
I just hope Willemse can convert his goals or it will be a long day in the office. Especially if Johnny Sexton is playing
