Thanks for the info on Arno, always better to get it from people that seen players in action, the media seems to overhype more often than not.
I see Evan Roos again played like a beast for WP this past week, just a matter of time before he is called up.
If you follow the local CC you would notice he was first injured, then had Covid, he is only recently back and being outplayed by the other loosies in the BB team. Yes, he has the experience and is still a damn fine player. Just not on the Springbok radar it seems. Much like Arno Botha, both...
Marcell is over his prime, injury-prone and just after a WC and Lions series it is time for fresh blood - Evan Roos, Edrich Low, du Preez's their time to come in and shine
Marcell is a constant injury concern and I think we gearing the next breed of loosies.
I'd rather see Evan Roos or Edrick Louw than Marcell Coetzee in the mix
Argentina's 6,7 and 8 are frightening, to say the least. They will not stand an inch back against any side in the world.
Wish Evan Roos started playing 2 years earlier, he is the type to take them on
My hangover rates there amongst the biggest test ever played, not even going to read the last 25 pages of crying and picking a new coach. with subtle hate amongst the 4 nations, it got old.
This was a different tour and should be seen as such. No crowds, utterly undercooked Boks to start off...
True, NZ wins 99% of the games they have fast ball and they can express themselves, they lose the same margin when you are in their faces and slow them down, when you dominate the collisions and put pressure on 9 and 10.
One week closer to 12 more years, you're welcome
Lions lost it in almost the exact same way the Boks lost it last week, Boks more accurate and clinical, they are still some distance of full potential, next week they could start to fire again
Two placers in the Stormers side to watch for the future, Evan Roos - unique talent with a big engine like PsdT and Edwill van der Merwe, might have been Cheslin's twin.
JD would been in the Boks mix was it not for injuries & Xaba full of fire up and coming loosie.
They will be no match but I...
