Is the exodus of so many top players diluting the strength of the team...?

 

...not so clever mike pray tell should all these over seas based players be considered or should Meyer stick with those SA based players...

 

There is still quite a big pool of talent without any overseas based players is'nt there ?

 

...not so clever mike could this be yr current top fifty home based players or there abouts from which Meyer will pick his next Springbok team or have i missed too many Bulls players?

Brycy: you have a good point mate, recent evidence revealed that the frog teams are getting stronger at the expense of the Boks.

Brycy


the only team that is getting weaker is the AB's - sorry to say.   Looking at todays game I have my doubts as to whether the Crusaders are going to beat anything in Super 15 and they are the ones with the All Blacks in abundance.

 Yeah, I think it's redundant to suggest that the All Blacks are getting weaker. Bearing in mind that they own every piece of rugby silverware on offer and have just completed the first ever perfect season, there is nowhere for then to go from there but down. Folks just need to remember that even a "weaker" AB team is still 10-15% stronger than their nearest competitors.

Ha ha Clevermike: as the sorry stormers & other SA teams have proven, coaching counts. As do synergies. Of course there are on or two ABs in the Blues team as well, lol
