The team  with certain exceptions seems to be relatively strong.   The weak links are De Jongh at center, Notshe at no 8 and Nyakane as prop.   
The game is Friday afternoon at 16:30 on Friday.         

 
I like that tight 5.

Why didn't they release Jaco Kriel to the A side? He deserves game time. Is there an issue between him and Quota Coetzee?

Sure seems like it.

 Playing De Jongh is very short sighted, don't see the point.

 All the players selected in this team are liabilities.
What is the point in having a second team when the first one plays already so poorly it must be terminated?
What TV network bought the right to broadcast?

Nobody has a valued interest in that thing.

 T, rugby people will have some mild interest.  Spit out the bile and have a beer to wash out the bitter.

 Valued interest. Poor game, even worse than the other game.

 T, why watch SA rugby when you hate everything about it? You were hoping for a loss, wer'nt you?

 Hoping for a loss... Sometimes, thinking before writing could be great.

It was answered multiple times.

The continuation of rugby in SA is a mystery. AU are in a similar (if better) situation and are level headed toward it. They can accept the termination of rugby as a prospect and do not feel the urge of hiding behind tales like the quota story.

 Waffle waffle...a.n.
