Two games in PE coming up on consecutive weekends.

Surely the stars of Saturday need to be rested and with all the injuries it'll look in teresting who runs out on the pitch.

Yep….a few key players on the bench one would think. Etzebeth and Pollard for example.

Jasper Wiese and Eldstat need to be dropped. Neither have the skills required for international loose forwards. They are just ball carriers. 

Steph DuToit;s injury must be serious given he is not in the squad.

Wiese has some potential. Elstadt was exposed in 2019. Why the latter was elevated is a mystery. Wiese improved dramatically in the third test. He just needs to cut out the errors. I don't know whether he will, as Saffers don't tend to learn from experience, but there's still hope for him. I really blame Josè for dropping Kwagga and starting him. It was a big ask to make one's debut in such an awkward series. Kwagga played himself into the starting side. Poor analytics from Josè again.
