WTF is Coenie Ozthuizen doing in the squad. 
He is useless. Easily the worst scrummager in world rugby.
Surely the A team should be primarily younger players with the potential to be Boks- not some tire kicking person trying to bS that he can scrum. Why persist with this waist of space?
Minisi and Peterson are unfortunate not to be in the squad. 
Having this A side is great to test new talent to see if they have the potential to step up. 

 Agreed ... Coenie as as useless as they come. Always has been.

The A side is really a poorly selected squad. 
Form and talent wasn't a priority. Race was.

Feel for Venter, Marx, Marutlulle, Koch and Snyman. All deserved a Bok call up.
