Louw had the reputation of being the top tight-head in SA and Dave is still saying he is his first choice player in the Springbok squad this year. Louw was never a player contributing much outside of scrumming, but n crucial cases a tight-head's major contribution is scrumming.
This is where things started to go downhill insofar as Louw is concerned. He under Erasmus became the Sopringbok bench tight-head, but in some tests he was found wanting as a bench player as well and Erasmus went for Koch as the bench selection.
I thought that he would make a major contribution last night in the Jaguares game last night - but he failed in the game as well. So my question remains - what w ent wrong with his scrumming?
