[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 439873, member: 39190"] I'd say Aplon can't kick. Not as far as to effectively relieve pressure like te likes of Lambie or Steyn and Viljoen as well. Steyn hasn't shown any interest whatsoever of joining the line effectively or counterattacking; if he recieves the ball from someone clearing from their 22, he'd go for a drop rather than run it up. Lambie is our best bet in the squad but under an injury cloud. Remember that Lambie played for SA juniors at fullback and only started at 10 for the Sharks later on in his rugby carreer. 10 is where SA needs his talents most in the future though IMO. I agree Viljoen should have been in this squad or rather he should have been in the Springbok fold earlier (while Kirschner was doing the rounds) to have been part of the structures allready rather than a last desperate call-up which he would be if we were to call him up now. Post RWC I'd like to see both Jaco Taute and Louis Ludik at least given a fair go for the #15 and #22 jerseys. If Steyn wants it he should come to SA and play at 15 and lose the excess weight and get an attitude adjustment and rather eat pap than pastries for breakfast. [/QUOTE]
