A formidable center pairing with olivier, who has been named to play in the match on Saturday so i 'assume' he has passed a fitness test.
So JP's decision was upheld. I think this is a very bad decision in the light of what happend over the last view weeks! I think they just wanted to make right what they could get right over the last couple of weeks.
Bakkies should've been banned for that face-palm.

Listen I don't care if he deserved it or not, the man is aggro and will be treated more harshly because of it. He is a reular offender and so yes he will get nailed for tiny infringements. Take Butch James for example yes he did used to shoulder charge alot and was targeted by ref's for it. Get over it.
A candid interview with JP, even Stephan went to bat for him, but they still upheld the decision, another talent lost to SA.
JP's 'shattered Bok dreams'

He played more than 1000 mins without an problem. IIRC he has not given away a penalty in this years super 14..... This is not Ballet, this is rugby
IMO he would never have made Springbok, he is just not that good, but he has had a couple of good games for the bulls this year. I do feel the call was a bit harsh...
