What point is there in winning this particular fixture, or not just winning but overkill, just 'big names'. Sure a form player like Hendricks has been included while De Allende and Etzebeth, Malherbe, PSdT and Arno Botha are injured and would be considered if fit but... **** me. No Serfontein? JPP has been poor and now out of position. I'd be surprised if our outside backs get the ball from anything other than fielding kicks and loose balls. Botha and Matfield together? Jannie du Plessis is not 1st choice any more or at least shouldn't be, Ruan Pienaar's continued selection boggles my mind. HM has all but ringfenced Bok selection and has far overstepped the line between finding a balance between home based players and overseas talent IMO. So much so that what is the point of any SA player playing in SA? I mean, if you are in you are in and it doesn't matter where you play and if you are not then in yet, you don't get any preference in selection from playing here so why not earn 4 times elsewhere?
