Vermaak is going to be coached into box kicking. Its hard for a 9 to attack if the outside backs are forwards and not a flat 10 or a winger at a angle.

Box kicking is the only thing they are interested in. Cause he likes to sky them he is falling out of favor. That is South African rugby sadly

I do not think he would be the danger man.

I have some sympathy for Hougaard. He is a running 9 and it is hard to attack from half back when the outside backs are coming forwards. Just watch him closely he give himself away when he is going to kick. He plants his leading foot (right foot) and takes one step to get on his left foot to...

Yeah this 4 point thing for doing nothing should be disbanded. You get the same points as a team who played their hearts out for 80 minutes

Those Lions can get sneaky. They run it around and you entertain with them. Then they go drop it with a couple of seconds left

Who is going to be the goal kicker?

JdV is a very good player. Very good talker to the referee and that is what is needed. Still I think in todays game a forward should be the captain but who was left really? JdP and imported Zimbabwean or Spies? Spies well you want a riot in SA making him Bok captain its your funeral. JdV needs...

There is a diference between telling and suggesting something. Telling is something your dad did after your mom got tired of suggesting something to you.

Question is do you go for tried and tested combinations or try something new and step into the unknown. Think combo's like 9 and 10 as well as 12 and 13 are pairings that rely on continuity and should not be broken up unless you have to

exactly

Him defending at 15 is it to counter the traffic getting sent down his channel by the opposition or is it in a attacking sense? I have to ask where is his flanker that is suppose to look after him? We had a couple of bad defending fly halves but they could get away with it by having some quality...

The Lions franchise have a Super 10 title. Al tough not accepted by SANZAR we all know that Super Rugby originated from it and in 2011 it should have been the Reds third title not first. Secondly the Lions was treated badly by politicians and higher officials at SARU. Politics in SA rugby is...

True. I will go even further. SARU have a exchange program with some English and Irish clubs. The Bulls have a strategy in where they use and brainwash them then dump them in Europe.

lol But turn overs is just one part of the attack. Reds rely heavily on their forwards and big runners to get them upfield. That is when Cooper shine. You need to create the space for him and to do that they use that quick recycles. Counter attack is good but one can't rely on it for everything...

Yeah all that roids keep him up and running. Nothing a few heart operations can fix. We had Chavanga as well but his hammies unfortunately gave problems. Now he was quick. He would have lapped that Cheetah

That is not only the only key for the Reds that is. Genia can throw it instinctively to Cooper but is it after the front 5 made the hard yards and the back three go them their quick recycles and Cooper had Digby lurking somewhere or is it receiving ball under pressure which is slow and no space...

Speight will have to turn prostitute and the ARU pimp for him to wear a wallaby jersey, and both will lose face.

But why put him at 15 when he can be even more dangerous at 10? Genia and Cooper need some continuity which they did not have a lot of in their partnership the last year or two. Gregan and Larkham had a long partnership which Australia benefited from which was build in time. Gregan ran the show...

I have to disagree. In the attacking sections the Kiwi teams lead the way. Its just the pressure of them having to play pass pass pass pass rugby for 80 minutes to keep sponsors and others a like happy that is getting to some of them. You can throw it around but if the defense is up to it then...
