Yes I do feel sad for Roos but he has to sort out his penalty/error rate. Apart from that he is class. It also doesn't help in the fact that we are spoilt for choice with talented loose forwards, especially 8th man.

He is the loose forward with the most tries and meters gained in urc but also highest penalties conceded and possesion lost. If he could just improve his dicipline pretty sure he would get into the squad but in tight games he can easily loose you the match.

That's a strong team, but Rassie holding back a bit though.

No Malcolm Marx, no Juicy Kriel

I hope Fassi finally gets exposed completely. Shouldn't be near a Springbok jersey tbh.

Strong team, power up front and pace at the back. Glad Eben, Lood, Siya and Sasha are back. Only change I would have made is Quan Horn in for Fassi.

Maybe SFM will move to 15 when Pollard comes on, or if Fassi has a real shocker on the day Pollard can come on and SFM just moves to 15.

Yup. Let's just hope the players who haven't played in a while don't have shockers.
