Watching the CC game between the Stormers and the Bulls yesterday

I was on the lookout for a couple of players specifically - namely Thompson at flyhalf and Dan Du Plessis in particular - since the Stormers backline is a mess.
Matter of fact I was impressed by Dan du Plessis andafter yesterdays performances in the Super Rugby game I would select the following backline for the Stormers:-
15   Cheslyn Kolbe14   Kobus van Wyk13   Dan du Preez12   Damian de Allende11   Juan de Jongh10   Jean-Luc du Plessis 9    Nic Groom
I would put Schreuder, Thompson and Kotze/Zas on the bench.
My problem is that De Jongh really is too small to be a center and is a very poor passer of balls,   However, the counter is he is a weak kicker of balls - but on average I would prefer to see him on the wing rather than in a center position.  
 

 Mike, De Jongh seems to play better rugby this year. I agree that he's no world beater, but he is better than you normally gives him credit for...interesting that you would still pick him at wing. I actually like him at 12.

 Agreed Draad.
De Jongh isn't a wing.
He has a nasty step and is relatively strong in the upper body ... that would be wasted out wide.
I do not rate him as a possible test player but he's a quality centre an d makes a difference when selected there. 

Draad
De Jongh is physically too small to be a center with the result that over  the last three years he consistently statistically had he highest missed tackle ratio of all SA centers,   That is why I distrust his defense - especially against the physically bigger centers in other teams.   
The problem is that although at times difficult to tackle - he cannot really make telling line breaks and balls often dies with him or are even turned over by opponents.  

He also has a problem with passing balls and tends to make forward or inaccurate passes.
He has pace and should be a top class player when he can operate at pace nd he would have more space on the wing than at center.
