So who would have that at the tender age of 37, we would have another geriatric leading the boks


It seem that almost every springbok coach has some odd love affair with old players. 


For Jake it was Percy and Os, but both were still at the top of their game


Meyer was in love with Du Preez and Matfield, neither players were particularly fit and to think that Victor had to be pulled out of retirement


It looks like Rassie has done the same with Brits. but the only difference is that he was pretty much on his last legs at Saracens and only played as a substitute. 


Neither does he have any World Cup experience or vast amount of test with loads of trophies in the cupboard. 


I wonder if this is going to come and bite Rassie in the bum


He had Ackers and Bismark at his disposal. I would rather have Bissie in the team to cover Bongi and Marx

Yeah ... Rassie and his brainfarts ... there's been a few.

Still ... cannot match Meyer and the quota coach that followed him.

Why this hysteria about Oupa Brits being appointed captain for this game.

Don't recall the same outcry when "Dr Juice Chilliboy" was made the captain of the Springboks a few years ago.

Let me have a guess......
