[QUOTE="SomeOke, post: 874810, member: 59145"] Well Eben has 7 offloads this RC, tied with our top off loaders Kriel and Coetzee. I think our selection isn't perfect but it's pretty close to full stregnth as is. The only obvious guy who should be included is RjvR and considering how inexperienced the rest of our backs are, maybe playing our incumbent centre pairing is the correct call. Completely agree that our execution needs a lot of work, that also comes from our Super Rugby franchises playing ball which they have started to do (and I believe even the Bulls might follow through next year with Mitchell as head coach). Also agree that AC isn't exactly the right person to lead us in this new direction, as he's never shown any indication he's capable of coaching that kind of style, I feel like he's only coming around because he failed so utterly last year trying to get us to play AC ball. In the end we are playing in a new style with very inexperienced players, I never like losing but I can accept it as long as we are growing. It's games like Aus and NZ away this year that really make me annoyed because in those game it looked like we were taking a step back from the growth we've made. [/QUOTE]
