[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 594886, member: 39190"] On the bright side (sadly philosophically and not of any practical value) I think it is a good sign for Bok rugby that a win by 20 points over a top team like Aus (current form notwithstanding) is cnsidered not good enough. What I got from this match; FdP is just a class above what we have otherwise. Even if he is unavailable I don't want to see Pienaar Ruan another game for us- see what I did there? Very clever. I pray Hougaard gets back to some form to deputize seeing as Vermaak is also off to France. Flip van der Merwe and to a lesser extent Zane Kirchner are stop-gaps. Pity both Juandre Kruger and Gerhard Mostert are based in France as I think Flippie wouldn't have had the chances he has had otherwise. He is solid enough but IMO doesn't add a whole lot and is prone to ill discipline. I hope with PSdT noow back on his feet we'll see him get an extended run in the no.5 jersey and we'll see how he goes and if he can deliver on his potential. Other than that we have Goosen and Taute to play at 10 and 15 when fit so we are not stuck for choices if not for injury. Le Roux could always have another run at 15 when JP Petersen is back and there is always Lambie getting the cold shoulder. Would also love to see brussow have a go while Louw is at Bath; think we are losing out big time there and that Brussow can have a massive effect on a game BUT things are taking shape and I have some trust in HM.
