[QUOTE="unrated, post: 868838, member: 45773"] I'm not satisfied by the explanation given by AC on why he left out the lions pair of Combrinck and Rjvr. He said he decided to reward the players who played well against France. But how did the players get into the Springbok side in the first place? They played well in Super rugby. So now the Springboks play well for three games and he claims to discount Super rugby form in favor of supporting players who did the job in national Colours. So AC is basically saying yes Combrinck played well but Skosan and Rhule played well against France therefore I don't care about the Super rugby form of Combrinck. That's the one side of it . And at the same time that he makes these claims he goes and includes uncapped players amongs them Bosch and Dan du Preez. Now I have no problem with their inclusion because I think they are good players but doesn't this go against what AC just based his argument upon ? He discounted the form of Combrinck saying he knew he played well but then does not discount the form of these uncapped players included. Why does he not stick with the players who played against France for the positions of Bosch and Dan du Preez for example? it kind of seems as he just preferred not to include the two lions players because he simply does not like them. He proved his own argument wrong. [/QUOTE]
