That is exactly what you did not say... You said you will pick Hougaard... but then you listed the reason why Pienaar is the better choice.... so you will still pick Hougaard?

I am only responsible for what I typed, not for what you mis-read. I did not say what you think I did.

If Morne Steyn is picked before Lambie I am supporting the All blacks...

Good. The Boks don't need supporters like you.

Good. The Boks don't need supporters like you.

Who died and made you president of the supporters club.

 

[OrbitalDawn]

Still miffed that Crotty isn't in the ABs squad.

WP Nel and Joshua Strauss have been included in the Scotland squad for the World Cup.

Richardt Strauss also made the cut for Ireland.

Brad Barritt made the England squad.

Don't have a clue who it is but South African Niku Kruger also made the USA team.

 

[MickeyD]

Rory - France?

All genuine Bok supporters will tell you this.

Certified, genuine, blue bull supporting, HM devotees you mean?

Rory - France?

Final squad has not been named yet but he is very likely to make it.

KUTZTOWN, Pa. - Senior Michael Lawrenson and junior Niku Kruger have been named to the 2014 USA Rugby AIG Collegiate All-American (MCAA) squad. Lawrenson comes to KU via Durban, South Africa, and Kruger is a product of Pretoria, South Africa. This is Lawrenson's second year on the squad.

I withdraw that. Seems it was named.

And yes Rory made the cut

Oh and Scott Spedding of course also made it.

 

[Ho3n3r]

That doesn't make any sense. I would've told you that under any coach in the last 20 years.

And I'm proud to be a Bulls supporter, so I take it as a compliment.

Good for him, would have like to see him have a go for the Boks but at least they didn't screw him over by picking him and then discarding him.

Never mind, it's a pointless argument anyway.

 

[Ho3n3r]

Never mind, it's a pointless argument anyway.

Agreed.

 

[APoc184]

Another one.

DTH van der Merwe selected for Canada.

Biggest WTF is still Jody Rose being picked for Romania

You sure?

 

[APoc184]

You sure?

Seems he didn't make the final cut. Only training squad.

However. Pretty sure Johannes van Heerden is not of Romania descent.
