Fatprop F Steyn only joins the squad next week so they need another plan. Word at the moment is that Adi is unlikely to start this weekend and we might see: M Steyn Lambie Habana / Kirchner Great on attack. ***Shiver*** in defense. We will know this afternoon is Jean DV is fit.

You just say you had Fitzgerald as cover. So you had another 13 and a guy you seem to think is adaptable to play 13. That's two options. SA have one guy who hasn't played rugby for a year to cover 12 and 13, and one who by all accounts will not be fit. That's it. There is one other guy in...

Spies/Smith/Kankowski in the 8,7 & 6 positions. That back row was not good enough in Brisbane. What''s changed. If they play that back row, I give up.

Well now you've jinxed him. He will be tried at 15, 12, 9, LH, TH, Tight lock and everything else but 10. Then he will follow Ruan Pienaar to Ulster.

That was hilarious. He's not all to blessed in the noggin.

My comment about Joubert was a throwaway to illustrate how desperate the situation is. He has been out the system for five years so even remotely thinking he will be pulled in is dilly. Don't you get it? We have no fit 13 and one broken 12 in a Springbok squad. Do you want me to explain it...

Coming along nicely. Looked very sharp in the CC semi. Not quite the Habana we hope for but way better than what we saw earlier this year. We do know of course that under PdV he will be reduced to kick chase so I give him two matches and he will start sulking around the park again.

No Hernandez had a one year contract, not renewed. Petooors came off the bench a few time and started once or twice. Seemed steady enough. He'll struggle to get a S15 contract with the Sharks though.

At this point with all the injuries, SA need this game like they need a hole in the head.

I read somewhere that MCaw won't play in the first six rounds or something. They might lose a few to the likes of those teams mentioned. Looong comp, don't thing we'll easily see teams go unbeaten.

Assuming de Villiers gets over his groin strain, yes

Some are, but does that imply taht Steyn is crap? PS one option is to play Lambie at 10 and M Steyn at 12 where he has played quite a bit of rugby.

Two finals ion a year and they choked. Better team on paper. Both times. :)

We have bigger concerns that jerseys. Like having no centres and a bit if a back row selection headache.

1. With the centre crisis Lambie will possible start there amd regardless I don't think he would have started anyway. 2. He should go worse up there. His game is less suited to NH conditions. guys like Alberts will be far better suited. 3. The other LH is a 21 old rookie so yes.

BOD will run through our non existent midfield on one leg.

I saw two recent Clermont games and he didn't start.

Now suddenly M Steyn is bad? Rubbish.

What call?
