[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 334814, member: 24910"] irrelevant comment.... Anyways, I'll have a stab a who I'd pick (from a NZ perspective, without having seen any Currie Cup... so go easy on me :p): [B]1.[/B] [B]Steenkamp[/B] [B]2. Du Plessis[/B] (It would be a big call to drop Smit, but I think he's a liability defensively.

Matfield[/B] [B](c)[/B] [B]6. Louw[/B] (I really rate him - does a huge amount of work at the breakdown) [B]7. Smith [/B](Has really been missed so far this year, class player) [B]8. Kankowski [/B](I really don't rate Spies - it has always amazed me that a guy who can outrun a cheetah, overpower a gorilla, and defeat 5 male lions in hand-to-paw combat can be such an average rugby player at times). [B]9. Hougaard [/B](With Pienaar out I'm not sure who I'd put here - I haven't seen much of Hougaard at 9, but I understand that it is his best position. He certainly seems to be a very talented player) [B]10. M Steyn[/B] [B]11. Habana[/B] (Things haven't being going his way, but I still think he has a lot to offer. I can see the benefit of giving another wing a chance though e.g Aplon or van der Heever) [B]12. de Villers [/B](I think he will perform much better when actually playing in his correct position) [B]13.[/B] [B]de Jongh[/B] (looks very promising) [B]14.
