We're gonna get hammered... 14 okes starting the match ;)
 
haha, i think even with 14 men, we could still give them a go.... the lions also has 7 changes...
 
Morne Steyn goal kicking is brilliant but his tactics is nowhere most of the time he didnt seem to know what to do and mainly he was in no mans land like he was lost. His hand to ball kicking is pathetic kicking down the other teams throats 90% of the time. Ruan Pienaar also didnt play well at all his goal kicking was beyond usless.

Mmmm did you see the 2nd Test?

When the pack is going forward the flyhalf is a lot prone to make a hash of things. Expecting a flyhalf to perform great behind a weak pack of forwards that were continuesly being driven back (the 3rd Test) is asking a bit much.

Anyway imo Steyn is the best we have atm so its either Kick him to the curb after 1 full test (while he played behind a shlt lackless pack of forwards) and plug someone like earl rose in there or keep him and give him a fiar chance behind a decent pack of forwards.
 
Yea in all honesty you cannot look at that third game in regards to steyn, we played our second string team, as devil says start him with our tri nations team and then let's have a look.

We saw what he could in the second test, the 3rd we did not care if we won or lost.
 
ruan pienaar...

this boy can play rugby.

Morne just plays a more kicking game..what happens when the conditions suck? muddy pitch , heavy winds ?

rather have a man who can play running rugby , more assertive of getting points plus Pienaars playing skills is overshadowed by morne's drop goal ability in the super 14...

just my opinion...
 
I know who gets my vote:

That is exactly when you want somebody with a better kicking game. You will be relying on kicking and goal kicking more in these conditions than usual.

Pin the other team back in their own half and bash it up with the forwards, get the penalties, slot them over.
