I do not think there is much Meyer could do after the mess yesterday, bearing in mind what is going on on the injury front as well:-
15 Willie le Roux14 Jean de Villiers13 Jesse Kriel12 Damian de Allende11 Bryan Habana10 Patrick Lambie 9 Cobus Reinach 8 Pieter-Steph du Toit 7 Lappies Labuschagne 6 Jaco Kriel 5 Lood de Jager 4 Eben Etzebeth 3 Frans Malherbe 2 Adriaan Strauss 1 Steven Kitshoff
16 Bismarck du Plessis17 Trevor Nyakane18 Marcel van der Merwe19 Franco Mostert20 Schalk Burger21 Faf de Klerk22 Handre Pollard23 S Senatla
Bismarck and Burger looked tired and ineffective yesterday. Both should be put on the bench. Du Preez is injured and is not likely to get fit before the WC and he would not be exposed to further injuries.
We have a serious problem at Tighthead. Our loosies are bad as well. Brussow was absent from the game yesterday - Burger was a blunderbuss - Coetzee obviously was not over his injury. Louw is also injured - so time to call up others. Same with the locks - since Flippie was useless when tried out in that position previously.
For heavens sake - do not play De Allende as a loosie where he e nded up yesterday.
