Francois comes home!!!

You know what they say about men with big shoes...

Yes, they have smelly socks!

Read an interview with Steyn, he sounds much more mature.
I think he will be a great asset to the Sharks and hopefully integrate with the team.
Lambie and Steyn 10/12 pairing...

If only we could convince Pienaar to return... That would be AWESOME!!! Imagine this line-up:


1. Tendai Mtawarira
2. Bismarck du Plessis
3. Jannie du Plessis
4. Jandre Marais
5. Anton Bresler
6. Marcell Coetzee
7. Willem Alberts
8. Keegan Daniel

9. Ruan Pienaar
10. Patrick Lambie
11. Lwazi Mvovo
12. Francois Steyn
13. Paul Jordaan
14. JP Pietersen
15. Riaan Viljoen

16. Craig Burden
17. Wiehahn Herbst
18. Pieter-Steph du Toit
19. Ryan Kankowski/Jean Deysel
20. Cobus Reinach
21. Tim Whitehead
22. Meyer Bosman


Man, that would be awesome!!! Experience and young blood mixed together... 11 Springboks in the starting line-up (considering Coetzee making his debut soon)...

 

[Draggs]

Pienaar is gone and out of form (apart from Ulster, seemingly).
We've got Reinach coming through and Conrad Hoffman when not injured (or in Plumtree's bad books I suppose)
Once Ndungane, Michalak, Bosman, Skeate, maybe Sykes are off the wages, we will be able to look around a bit more.
Paul Willemse seems a decent player, if the Lions drop we should wave a bit of money in front of him.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

Willemse is very young. I want a more experienced lock to teach Bresler, Marais-bros and PSdT the ropes.

Agreed, but it doesn't hurt to have a 2m+ second row waiting. I think du Toit might be around there.
Think we can lure Vic in?

EDIT: Ruan Botha is the big one, 2,04m.
