I haven't been reading much rugby of late and now I find no reference to his injury...hopefully it's not a repeat of the one he sustained earlier this year.

It is called All Blacksitis - wear and tear of softies who come up against the ABs ! Quade Cooper sucumbed to it in RWC 2011 and he hasn't been the same since .

Mozart
It seems to be a foot injury similar to the one sustained by Malherbe. That type of injury happens apparently when the surfaces of the fields of play is sub-par like the Springboks encountered in their three games.
He has had the operation - but it is less serious than Malherbe's one and he should be back playing again in April.
There were no indication that the latest injury was similar to the previous one. As far as I can remember the previous one was an ankle injury.

Hakawa you need more focus oak! Remember I am watching you.
Re Etzebeth the injury was not as bad as first thought. We have that Argentinian test lock to help out.

hmmm thats going to be a bit of bugger fantasy rugby wise.
lady elzabeth and stephanie du toit were going to be my nancy boy locks in fanatsy rugby, especially in round one where only SA teams are playing for some absurd reason.
was hoping to play lady elizabeth and retallick for most of the season with stephanie on the bench for cover, but it looks like im going to be rolling with stephanie and reatllick, at least until lady elizabeth comes back from his ankle injury.
good luck lady elizabethe, coem back soon cos theres a strong link with ur absence and the stormers being kak like they were in 2013.

I can only surmise that Etzebeth terrifies you Kiwi chaps. Bakkies is the same even today, mention his name and a bunch of Thorne amnesiacs are prattling away. But as Adolph said when the Poms asked where the German forces were...."we are coming". Turned out he was dead wrong, but I think you chaps can count on Stephanie and Etzebeth. It's like seeing your own accident in slow motion!

yes were terrified of lady elizabeth whose contributions have helped the Boks win zero test matches against the All Blacks,
i wonder if whitelock and retallick ever returned those balls they stole of lady elizebth during the Bok lineouts,

Well good to see you are in good spirits Mozart & looking to the future with such optimism. The resilience of the human spirit after being disappointed for so long is a wonder to behold. I made the same observation to my good mate Beeno.
You & Beeno remind me of Jeeves & Bertie Wooster. I leave it to you to decide which character you might be but offer this quote about good ol' Bertie :
"He had a distinctive blend of airy nonchalance and refined gormlessness".
