What is amazing about this is the following:-
*    In De Jongh's absence EW Viljoen was used at 13 - where initially he was very, very good.   In the matches in New Zealand the whole Stormers team collapsed and showed very little positive and Viljoen was in that category as well.   Besides that the inside center was injured early in the first game (Dan du Plessis) and he had to play alongside a non-player as inside center.  
*    Back in SA De Jongh was also back in training  and his first match was for  WP in the Supersport trophy competition.  He has now been put on the bench in the game on Saturday.
The reason is obvious - De Jongh is a constant flop as a center and has been for years.    How come Fleck realizes that and Coetzee does not realize it?

The A squad should be full of players who could possibly be Boks in future, De Jongh at 29 is not that. It makes 0 sense.

Exactly APD.   He is a  proven failure and that makes it all the more questionable.

 But you forget the all important fact that he is Toetie's boetie.

 Does Coetzee pick the A squad as well as the main team? Seems unfair to Ackers
