And some no-sense prevails again ..... Twatson in and J van Niekerk out :confused::mad: Rest of the team looks ok, glad that Du Preez and Percy are starting again. Also good to have Schalk back and Steyn :D Danie Roussouw might be a bad option though after that weird 'heart palpitations' thing he's just had .....

Game on you all black bitches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Killadoob why did you just post the squad again???
At least Steyn is back in the squad and du Preez back in his rightful place.
 
*lines up and shoots Just_Ice dead* ....... he's made that spot his own has 'ol Jacobs.
 
Nope that is a tri-nations winning team, while i don't like watson i will give the benfit of the doubt until such times as i know for sure he is only in the team because of who he is.

I will have to use force and apprehend you before you can do that.
I am sure my 3 friends from THE COLLEGE in that squad will also help me out.
You better watch, they are bug guys! Two of them play in the front row!
 
For emphasis, that is one great looking team.

Apart from Watson.

He may have saved 5 points on Saturday but he also cost at least that by running a blocking pattern on James. Idiot.

Also not too sure on Strauss - but I suppose he didn't get to play in a position of choice last Saturday
 
Adi is playing well. Twatson im not too sure about. If we really looking for a fetcher and trouble maker in the loose we can look at Heinrich Brussou or Cobus Grobbelaar. Schalk would be best choice though.
 
Hopefully it won't be too long before someone takes note of Deysel ...... that chap can pluck the ball from anyone it seems :D
 
Not a bad side but again we lack pace in the loose. Eish, we going to get stomped on in that department IMO...

Back line is probably our strongest combination's at the mo... Ricky's service against Argentina wasn't particularly sharp but interesting to see Du Preez in ahead of him... I would have started with Ricky and brought Fourie on 20 minutes into the 2nd half. Ricky's got good form against the AB's...

Juan as talented as he is, is looking a bit slow for me, I would have started with Joe at 7 but I'm not sure Joe is fully fit yet but surprising that he isn't even on the bench. Suppose he needed to score 3 tries against Arg to impress...
 
I am pretty happy with the squad, I would have big Joe in place of Twatson and I would have Johan Muller starting with Bekker on the bench. He has so much experience and we need a big physical guy to partner with Vic.

Playing a flank/8th man who is big enough to play lock who has wierd heart problems at lock is just silly.

I'm sorry but as talented as Danie is, he is no where near quick enough to be playing flank at test level.

IMO he is not talented to play any position in test rugby. I think a brain should be a prerequisite.

QFT ..... he has no ability to play any type of expansive game and he's poor on defence most times. "Me Ug, me take ball and crash, me lose ball, oops" :mad:
 
Oh my lord, I see the political squad is out again in parly claiming that "we are taking steps back from transformation"....idiots. I love this new line-up, except for ol bakkies not being there and jacque fourie not starting on the bench, its a great line-up.

I'm sorry january is good, but is not nearly the scrumhalf that du preez is, that man, saved our collective butts on saturday, with butch james (finally), they kept that ball alive all the time
 
you never change a winning team. i would have snormam bring on percy,fourie and schalk brits and impact players.

Could have also started with chavanga or nokwe and have overrated habana on the bench
:D:D:D
