Yeah, I meant more in the 'talented youngster' way more than he's like Steyn way :D

Yeah, I didn't mean like right now for Tri-Nations etc. I just think that given the chance to join the training camps & a few minutes game time they will shine.

Jip I would send them to the training camps. Zane prob has the inside track if Pdivvy does not select Frans steyn from over the great waters :p

Zane isn't bad he is just not a game winner imo.

Lambie - yes, he reminds me of another Frans Steyn .... Pietersen - has never really impressed me, so pass.

Mmmm kind of like Percy imo...... But hay percy was a really really terrible full back :)
 
Look even though Percy was a great servant for South Africa, and did play a faily good game to the end of his career and helped us win the World Cup. He still wasnt a Andre' Joubert or a Frans Steyn.
 
@ Devill - exactly! It's like Pietersen needs to mature and go away and come back and then be good type of thing :D I truly think that Lambie could put one over Kirchner if put in the Bok team. And it's not a Bulls/Sharks thing, that's just my feeling on it ......

Placing Frans in with Jouba is a bit premature imo.

Like I said if Lambie holds form for another season then he should be included in the Boks group. You can read my statement about Zane on this very page :p
 
@Devil

Why do you think it’s premature? He has done so so much already and he is only 22 years old. Juba only really started play well in his last 6 years of his rugby and remember that he retired when he was 34 in 1999. Juba only played for SA 34 times and Steyn has already played 38 times. Yes I know Apartheid played a major role, but then again before Juba there was Theo van Rensburg, Gavin Johnson, Johan Heunis who was excellent. Also remember that Juba had lots of injuries when he played in his early years. So I doubt he would have played many more times for SA. So comparing apples these two guys are very similar, and both have different strengths that makes them both strong and great in their own.

Now this was a fullback LEGEND !
 
Well played to the Bulls... but they will have to lift their game for the Stormers fixture.
 
Very well played to the Bulls... its unfortunate for us, but it was a good game.

erm nr one because Steyn played as bench warmer for a lot of those games. his form in the green and gold was only consistant in the last prob 10 tests he played.... he can become a great but calling him a great now is really really silly.
 
we only played for the first half, should have kicked their arse when I saw them in the morning at the airport, lol
 
Curious as to what the team-talk was at half time that resulted in The Sharks not turning up to the game for the second. Was a kark second half performance from the Sharks and to be honest, the bulls weren't even having that great a game either. They will need to pick up their game against the stormers...

My thoughts exactly. A tale of two halves!

Or maybe the toxic mixture of high alt., good play by the bulls, PTA cold weather and some back breakers from the bulls got to them ;)
 
mmm. not one south african team has spoiled anything for another this year, so i'm going with sharks to win :p but only just, 32-29, something like that....

good luck to both teams, make it a good one!
