I like the team sheet Boks.


Like I said from the beginning of the year, it must be nice to not only have a bombsquad, but a bombsquad with that amount of experience backing some of the youngsters / new caps getting a chance on the field.


Excited about Am at 12. Not something I thought would be on the cards. If SA 12 doesn’t have to be a sh1t house anymore, we have some fabulous ballers we can play at centre. Whether inside or outside. Much like we have many options at wing.


I’m glad we’ve taken a route at 15. We need a specialist 15 long term to fill Willies shoes. No doubt Damian is the incumbent at 15 - but we another specialist. Here’s your chance Fassi. Make it count.


And especially glad about the choice at front row. 😁


And some people said we couldn’t unearth the talent quick enough to replace the oldies. Some people know nothing.
