Ollie Kebble and our young props

The young man is 22 amd weighs in at 124kg on the loosehead. He stopped the Bulle dead in their tracks at scrumtime. Drives the ball up pretty well.

It would appear that he and Du Toit are future Bok props:

Here are some details of our younger props:

Looseheads:

Kebble 22 and 124 kg

Kitshoff 22 (Note that) 120kg

Thomas Du Toit 19 and 120kg

Nyankane 25  118kg

Schalk van der Merwe 23 115kg

Tightheads:

Malherbe 23 124kg

Dreyer 24 115 kg

Redlinghys 25 114kg

Marcell van der Merwe 23 128kg (Per SA Rugby.net - official home of the Springboks)

Add in any other prop 25 and under who could play for the Boks. All in all a pretty healthy picture?

 Healthy from the perspective that they are all young, not healthy if they don't step up.

We were all very excited about Co enie, and he has turned out to be rather k..k.

The only decent performance I have ever seen from him in the scrum was against France last year.

Beano, I don't understand the rea soning that there is less stress on your neck playing tight head, I played loosehead, my son was playing loosehead and had been moved to tight head, because he is a solid 11 year old they decided he could be the answer at tighthead.

Having to scrum against kids much bigger than him he has been under much more pressure.

I told him there is no way he is going to play tight head next year.
