[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 550372, member: 39190"] I would have really liked a combination of 1) veteran overseas-based players, 2) luring 'local' lads back that recently moved to other frnachizes and 3) giving out one or two developmental spots to local black players from the area. You have 1) S Brits, E Joubert, R Pienaar, J Fourie, F du Preez, D Rosssouw, G Steenkamp, B Mujati, F Louw, A Claassen, G Vosloo, R Kockott, WP Nel, J Strauss, A Johnson, H vd Merwe, W du Preez, BJ Botha, G Mostert, B Botha, G Botha, CJ Stander, Q Roux, J Smit, J Muller etc etc to pick from... 2) E Jantjies, J Goosen, J Serfontein, J Potgieter, D Potgieter, S Kolisi and that's just off the top of my head.. 3) and add Siyanda Grey, Mpho Mbiyozo, Stick, Mangweni and the like along with Watson and the 2 allowed foreign signatures and you have a brilliant team (on paper). The reality though is that they probably never stood a chance as the window was so small to negotiate deals with players contracted elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
