As we all know, a lot of the current Bok squad will be retiring from international rugby after the 31st of October. They have done great service to the shirt but I am excited by the skill level of some of the youngsters coming through and some of the players who are a bit more mature. Who would you like to see in the Springbok squad in the coming years?
Front row: Marz, Dreyer, Redelinghuys, Kitshoff, Koch, Malherbe, Kebble, Vermaak, Mbonambi, Du Toit. 
2nd Rows; Ruan Botha, Steph, Eben, Lood, Willemse
Back row: Arno Botha, Carr, Kriel, Whiteley, Notshe, Du Preez x2 , Mtembu, 
S/halves: De Klerk, Paige, Venter, Van Zyl, Ungerer, 
Fly Halves: Pollard, Jantjies, Du Preez, Curwin Bosch. 
Centres, Odendaal, Kriel, Swanepoel, Mnisi, Vorster, Sadie, Venter, De Allende, Mjekevu, Jordaan, 
Outside backs: Kolbe, Ismaiel, Ulengo, Gelant, Skosan, Andries Coetzee, Combrink, Rhule, Peterson, Senatla.
I'm sure I've missed a few. Of course there will need to be experience blended in and some of these players might never step up, but there's potential.

 Winsey 83
Welcome to the site.   This item has been discussed from time to time - but the lists have not been detailed - other than our member Saffex.
Front row: Marz, Dreyer, Redelinghuys, Kitshoff, Koch, Malherbe, Kebble, Vermaak, Mbonambi, Du Toit.   I do not think that  the two I scratched are international players.  You left out Nyakane and Strauss.  Some others like Kebble and Du Toit has some way to go and Koch was very disappointing when he did play for the Springboks.
Locks : Ruan Botha, Steph, Eben, Lood, Willemse.  Think you should add Du Plesis and Mostert to that list
Back row: Arno Botha, Carr, Kriel, Whiteley, Notshe, Du Preez x2 , Mtembu,.   You let out Vermeulen, Labuschagne and Elstadt from your list - would say that Burger may have another year or two as well.  Carr was very disappointing this year and so has Mtembu.  The Du Preez twins have some way to go before consideration.
 S/halves: De Klerk, Paige, Venter, Van Zyl, Ungerer,  You left out Reinach and Hougaard.  Van Zyl is to my mind very questionable and Ungerer has a very long way to go.  
Fly Halves: Pollard, Jantjies, Du Preez, Curwin Bosch.  You left out Lambie, Boshoff, Van der Walt  and Goosen.  Du Preez and Bosch has a long way to go.

Centres, Odendaal, Kriel, Swanepoel, Mnisi, Vorster, Sadie, Venter, De Allende, Mjekevu, Jordaan,  You left out Serfontein and Kotze.   Although they have played at 14 - I think Jordaan and Mjekevu should rather br wings.
Outside backs: Kolbe, Ismaiel, Ulengo, Gelant, Skosan, Andries Coetzee, Combrink, Rhule, Peterson, Senatla.   You left out Le Roux and Coetzee.  

I think a substantial number of players will have to proof themselves in Super 15 and I really would not like to express an opinion on any players - we should wait and see what they come up with in Super 15 next year.
