feeling a bit better now. We need Flo to start Boet, he is the missing link. I am still a bit upset after the Puma test to pick a whole team. We need a strong pack first up. I wont swop Hougaard for Pienaar.Paarl whilst I completely agree with you please tell me what changes Snor made?
Anyway Vermeulen and Goosen are in the squad and there is a surprise recall for openside Francois Louw from Bath. I have no problem with that. Thank goodness it's not Stegman.
Juan de Jongh is recalled and I don't know what Kirchner is still doing there. We are stuck with Bekker and M Steyn as well.
Springbok squad – Willem Alberts, Andries Bekker, Craig Burden, Pat Cilliers, Marcell Coetzee, Juan de Jongh, Jean de Villiers (c), Jannie du Plessis, Eben Etzebeth, Johan Goosen, Dean Greyling, Bryan Habana, Francois Hougaard, Zane Kirchner, Juandré Kruger, Pat Lambie, Tiaan Liebenberg, Francois Louw, Tendai Mtawarira, Lwazi Mvovo, Ruan Pienaar, Jacques Potgieter, Frans Steyn, Morné Steyn, Adriaan Strauss, Flip van der Merwe, Jano Vermaak, Duane Vermeulen.
Out of this squad my starting 15 would be:
F Steyn, Hougaard, J de Jongh, JdV, Habana
Lambie, Pienaar
Vermeulen
Coetzee, Alberts
Kruger, Etsebeth
Cilliers, Strauss, Beast
Louw plays off the bench.
But I am bloody dreaming. It's going to be exactly the same team.
Regarding Snor, at least he dropped his love childs like Rose and Januarie. Do the name Brussouw ring a bell? He did not pick him at first and just had to pick him after some great performances. Anyway I hope Meyer use rassie more in his thinking approach, Laubser and kie dont give me much faith, hope they prove me wrong.
