[Draggs]

I think we will see the return of Bresler, Ludik, and McLeod.
Plumtree claims that Jordaan is OK, whether he is fit for the match or not remains to be seen.

I think we'll see: Chadwick, Burden, Herbst, Sykes, MaraisJA, Botes, Kleinhans, Deysel; Reinach, Viljoen, Sithole, Bosman, Jordaan/Joubert, Ndungane, Prinsloo/Ludik; Hadebe, Redelinghuys, Bresler, Mtembu, McLeod, Joubert/Speckman, Ludik/Prinsloo.

Trying to take the Plumtree factor into account here.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

Added the line-ups for both teams. Ludik, McLeod and Bresler are back, Prinsloo, Marais and Reinach move to the bench. Best move is Kleinhans to the starting line-up with Mtembu going to the bench.

Why???

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

I don't understand. Charl McLeod is the most overrated scrum-half in SA Rugby since Ricky Februarie.

That would imply people rate him (aside from Plumtree), my friend.

I really wish we would have given Jordaan the week off. Last thing we need is our best outside centre prospect to do is have a reoccuring hamstring injury. I know I'll regret saying it later, but we do have... marius joubert...
