Saffex - I am missing you.

Two of the players championed by you were  very, very poor this weekend.- and we would like to have seen your comments.

Those two in particular are Jantjies and Engelbrecht.   Jantjies was very bad and was replaced halfway through the second half - justifiably so.   Engelbrecht never once got a decent ball to show anything in attacking play - but his defence was hopeless.   On two occassions JP du Plessis broke through feeble tackles tried by him. and in the second case Du Plessis scored a try.   Not a very good advertisement of defensive play.

Both really failed on CC level - so why should they be in the Springbok squad?

 an Hougaard is no longer at Scrumhalf due to a slow service provided from the rucks. Good to see him on the wing.

I saw the Hougaard issue coming for quite a while - he was one of the reasons the Springbok backline suffered badly.   Hougaard as a wing has my vote all the time.

I think Meyer hinted at a chnage - but not sure that it would happen,  As JP out nd Mvovo not really up to it - I think Hougaatd would be a logival selection on the wing.

 Hougaard, JP, and Habana should be our wings......they are all very competitive.

"an Hougaard is no longer at Scrumhalf due to a slow service provided from the rucks. Good to see him on the wing."

 

Quite funny, when I suggested the same, some months ago some clown on here said I was a spastic .....then rounded it off by saying each to his own. I wonder if he has the nuts to front up and admit to being wrong...I bet not!

Sharkbok

Thet don't smoke it down under - they use needles.   When I was in Perth and Sydney I was shocked when I went into public toilets and found the following notice above buckets:  Put your used needles in here".   Bad news that one.
