Super 14 Teams Round One

[RugbyReg]

C'mon Chiefs and Sharks!

Get your act into gear.

SANZAR needs to bring down a rule that all teams must be named by Thursday noon Brisbane. Purely to suit my purposes.

Lions
Earl Rose,Tonderai Chavhanga, Deon van Rensburg, Doppies la Grange,Wandile Mjekevu, Carlos Spencer, JP Joubert, Jonothan Mokuena, Franco van der Merwe, Cobus Grobbelaar (capt.), Willem Stoltz, Jacque Lombard, Ross Geldenhuys, Hannes Franklin, Heinke van der Merwe.
Replacement: Charles Emslie, JC van Rensburg, Todd Clever, Jacques Coetzee, Derrick Minnie, Burton Francis, Michael Kilian.

Todd Clever, bench lock? Or do they just have another man capable of lock in the 15?

I'd be interested in seeing Clever at lock. I would guess it would be his position were he was born in a Tier 1 nation.

Franco van der Merwe is a flanker/lock. Clever will play 7 or 8. Watch out for Minnie, pure iron that man.

Rocky Elsom is in doubt after pulling up sore after the Captains run yesterday. :angryfire: Mitchell Chapman would take Elsom's place with Henry Vanderglas on his way to Perth to take a bench role if needed....

Not the best start for the Brumbies then, both start recruits out of the first match!

Elsom gone, Chapman in

 

[Calexico]

Elsom gone, Chapman in

Makes me angry :angryfire:

 

[Scarfman]

I've already tipped the Force. :thumb

 

[fatprop]

I've already tipped the Force. :thumb

Yeah me too, I think Mitchell will have the Force pigs primed now that he actually has some props and I think Cowen will do well at 2.

Tipped the Brumbies, Force struggle at home.
