[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 868923, member: 40658"] He's a tighthead... And yeah, your guess is as good as mine why he wasn't picked. Maybe the quotas had to be filled with Nyakane and Gqoboka both able to play at tighthead. hmmm. Good Question. I think it will look like this: 1. Beast Mtawarira 2. Malcolm Marx 3. Trevor Nyakane 4. Eben Etzebeth (captain) 5. Franco Mostert 6. Jaco Kriel 7. Siya Kolisi 8. Jean-Luc Du Preez 9. Ross Cronje 10. Elton Jantjies 11. Courtnal Skosan 12. Jan Serfontein 13. Jesse Kriel 14. Raymond Rhule 15. Andries Coetzee 16. Bongi Mbonambi 17. Stephen Kitshoff 18. Coenie Oosthuizen 19. Pieter-Steph Du Toit 20. Oupa Mohoje 21. Francois Hougaard 22. Curwin Bosch 23. Francois Venter/Warwick Gelant My guess is that AC will try to pick as many guys as what he used during the French tour, as he's big on consistency and unless some of the guys don't perform too well, new faces will emerge. At no. 8 It's between the 2 Du Preez brothers, of all the guys in the squad, they are the most accustomed to that position. Unless he wants to start Kolisi and Mohoje together and then play Kriel at 8. Etzebeth has been confirmed as the captain in Whiteley's absence. And I think Mostert's performances will move him up ahead of PSDT and Lood De Jager. As for the backline, I can't see too many changes happening. Bosch is one of the guys I think will get a debut, while Pollard is still recovering. Also, did you guys see the Red jersey the Boks are going to play in against Argentina??
