[QUOTE="Durbanite, post: 873284, member: 73156"] Needs of the many and all that. Sharks are gonna wallop the bulls and we won't learn anything to help the boks. It's a selfish decision, especially when your squad has only won 3 of 8, why should the national coach back the bulls halfback pairing when their own team doesn't trust them to get the job done on short notice as that's what'll happen at the boks in effect if they're selected. Let's hope I'm wrong and Mitchell is doing what's best for his union, would be nice for the bulls to turn their season around but even if he does still don't think it should be of detriment to the boks. If it was my union I would probably see the wisdom in not playing them, like the Sharks with Bosch when he was dropped, waited a week to play him etc. Been thinking and I'd rather have Chiliboy as backup hooker over Bongi. [USER=40658]@TRF_heineken[/USER] why not Duane? I thought his surgery ruled him out of the rugby championship? For me the real quota selection wasn't Rhule staying but Paige, Hougie started before him almost every time, Paige should've been dropped when Schreuder was called up, not Hougaard. Would rather they both went tbh. [/QUOTE]
