Our new de Allende

Justin is definitely not a crash test dummy like Dr. Allendig.

Comparing him to John Deere is a insult…

But off course you can’t help yourself and have to declare your stupidity:)

Dont let me stop you….

Ai-jai-jaai!!!

DDA's best and most meaningful game for SA was against France in 1/4 final...

His quick pass to PSDT who then fed it to Kriel for the grubber that Kolbe collected, and the fumbled high ball that he ran to the line and ended up scoring from. 

Perhaps our new Allende would have tackled Nonu  and Mo’unga …WC losing failures

Read this by Ben Smith for some perspective:

The truth is with the Boks winning of 2 WCs and our forward dominance, Dud Allende received a flow of good ball. More than any other inside center since re-admission.

And yet the number of try scoring contributions by this Bok fixture can be counted on the fingers of one hand.

Glad to see you're not totally blinded...

de Allende is potentially our best 12 ever, it’s between him and Jean de Villiers 

Id take de Allende over Jean just like Aplon said he would having played with both of them 

I'd have even The Wet Barry over DDA.

Not much competition at 12 in the new era. Fuck, we've had the likes of Van Straaten at 12 at times didn't we? Jean probably walks it. 

Jean walks it

Agree on Jean.

Allendig is strong and that’s a advantage for the Tractor role he plays.

But he does of late, try to do more like offload …most probably the influence of Brown is helping….

But in general he kills more Ball possession, than actually using it to create for his teammates.

But then again, he is instructed to take contact and form rucks?? Can you blame the guy?

de Allende over Jean for me - close but I’m going with de Allende’s freakish power 

Esterhuizen is up there as well 

I hear AE's name and I instantly fantasise about going at JLDP's knees with a baseball bat.

Let's hope the universe is kind and when AE gets back the coach gives him a licence to hunt JLDP.

You don't just have to watch a player, you have to watch what happens around him. Does DDA's slow tractoring into traffic ever create anything for those around him? No. When he plays like a center and actually employs quick hands to distribute or attack the space between players like he did against England with the Kolbe try, then something happens around him. Unfortunately those moments are the exception and not the rule for him. Watch Esterhuizen taking contact and how quickly the ball is recycled vs DDA. That slow bashing and crawling into traffic, standing rooted to the spot fending off one or two tackles, that just ends up slowing the possession and momentum and pleases only neanderthals that sit there going "look, him bash, so strong, uga buga". 

110% Pakie!

Bs galore as expected from rugby idiots.  Take the fabulous Esterhuizen for example.  Twentyuy ests played and NO TRIES scored ad no try assists ever.   Some of those tests were against minature tems and NOTHING prduced is the norm according  to some site idiots,      

Jean was physical enough for sure but not in the same league as de Allende
