Your thoughts?
 
Morgan Newman plays for Western Province. I'm glad for Deysel, watch him in future. He is one big dude. Normally takes 2 or 3 to take him down.
 
The BEAST rules. I tell you if that guy has to come running at me I will let him pass. Schalk must come and help hahaha.
 
Still thinking if I should laugh or cry ... Morgan Newman? Earl Rose?... W T F
 
Morgan Newman played well the little bit that I have seen him.

Earl "The Pearl" Rose and Januarie? WTF?

Glad to see brussouw and Deysel there, they both have proven themselves to atleast be worthy of a chance.

Ps Why o why is bosman there? He is K@K! :mad:
 
Is this game going to be televised? i have not heard/seen any confirmation on Supersport yet, and i think the game is tomorrow.

Nope, don't think so. Even the official SARU website doesn't list it as a fixture. I think because it's not an official Bok game (they're being called the SA XV) and more of a warm-up session (with SARU picking some of the "Namibia" invitational team players too e.g. Derrick Hougaard). It's a bit worrying since the Boks don't have any other warm up games planned where ALL the official players will play before the Lions game.

Wonder what jerseys the boys will wear. Hmmmmm :rolleyes:
 
See snorre says that Bosman is there becuase they are looking for a replacement for de Villiers on inside centre....

WTF is wrong with him?! Bosman is k@k, infact I would rate lawrence sephaka as a slightly better inside centre as him.:mad:

Deysel being a "replacement/backup plan" for Juan smith is correct though. :D
 
Bosman a replacement for DeVilliers .... wtf! We have a plethora of centres that kick Bosmans behind with their eyes closed :mad:

And IMO, Deysel is miles ahead of Mr PenaltyMachine/Mr Spiteful (aka Juan Smith) ......

Lol, yeah agree about bosman, not about smith. He is a machine and he is also one of those players who plays 110% better in a boks jersey :)
