[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 666799, member: 39190"] Sport24.co.za says Malherbe's out for the rest of the tournament. That is a blow. Cobus Visagie has called for Brian Mujati to be called in but I doubt it's a possibility what with the government interfering and Mujati himself having stated (and not having said anything to indicate a change of heart since) that he doesn't want to play for the Bokke again. So.. what now. Even if HM would have been inclined to call in Redelinghuys he is also out injured. We've made the right call on dropping Oosthuizen but we might have to go back on that decision or call in reinforments from Europe though who that'd be I wouldn't know. I would be happy if we were to call up Heinke van der Merwe at loose head but at tight head I don't know where to now? I do expect changes in the pack and at 9 or at least I hope we see some changes now. We were all calling for Pienaar and our props to be dropped and maybe these two games are a blessing forcing HM's hand while not resulting in an actual loss. I know HM's hand has been effected with injury and him not wanting to make wholesale changes but something has to happen now. We have some glaring soft spots. [/QUOTE]
