Scotland really missing WP Nel

They lost the tight test against France mostly because their scrum was being rolled up. WP was totally reliable last 6 Nations. This happens to Oz all the time, and with guys like Koch the Boks are increasingly vulnerable. Proper teams need proper tightheads.

Just a question - did you nort previously wrote Nel off when he played for the Cheetahs?

Well judge for yourself....was I writing him off? ............... 'WP Nel sure diffused the Greyling threat.... July 02, 2012, 18:54:53 Fattie Greyling sure was having a field day beating up on an inadequate Cheetah's tighthead. This is what his proponents see in this penalty machine....krag, krag and more krag. On comes rolly polly WP Nel and in the very first scrum he shunts Greyling sideways and pops him. What WP can do, Franks can do ....but with the whole AB pack behind him. Greyling would be a disaster in the TN. Speaking of WP though, one has to love the way he and Oosthuizen play prop. Aggressive at scrum time....and aggressive with ball in hand. WP's runs against the Bools were classics out of the Richard Band's text book.' ................ Don't bother apologizing, I fully accept it's just another lie.

I asked a question and do not require being called a liar because of that.   I keep to my New Year resolution to be polite on this site and refuse to drop that level.      

 Mike, I think Moz gave WP some credit, long before he went to Scotland...in fact, I recall a Moz like thread where someone lamented the fact that he did not play WP...I might be mistaken though.
