This is weird.

It differs from what the SARU website published.

Best thing is to have a black team made out of the best black players in the country join the S14 and have the rest of the coaches choose their teams on merit, including or excluding the black players left in the rest of the franchises.
Maybe call them the Black Mambas;
The thirty players could include:
15. Conrad Janjes/Shandre Frolick/JP Pietersen
14. Tonderia Chavanga/ Jongi Nokwe
13. Bryan Habana/ Gobani Bobo
12. Wayne Julies/Dewey Swartbooi
11. Ashwin Willemse/Cedric Mhize
10. Earl Rose/Andre Hough
9. Paul Delport/Ricky Januarie/Bolla Conradie
8. Sean Plaatjies/Jonathan Makwena
7. Tim Dlulani/Solly Tybilika
6. Kabamba Floors/
5. Wayne van Heerden/Nicholai Blignaut
4. Quinton Davids/ Devon Raubenheimer
3. Eddie Andrews/ Laurence Sephaka
2. Hanyani Shimangi/ Chiliboy Ralepele
1. Guthro Steenkamp

I recon this squad could give any of the “white/merit” a run for their money. A few youngsters that could make name for themselves? Maybe a bit in the lock position, but other than that, bloody powerful!!!

The Cats and Stormers shouldn’t have a problem meeting these targets. They have Nokwe, Chavanga, Delport/Conradie, Andrews and Shimmangi. So they could have at least for 4 or five players of colour at every given time. For the Cats there’s Janjes, Human, Willemse, Julies, Sephaka and Januarie who should be starting.

“We are perhaps the most dominant force in world rugby today…”

Bulls — absolutely NIL; Otago Highlanders 23.

That’s the most recent encounter’s score!

Can ANY SA side ever field an all-white team?

Oh, the answer is no?

That means that a quota system is in place.

Personally….I think it is a cop out.

I would have been happier with a target of 4 compared with 2.

I don’t think game by game analysis is correct either.

This would logically suggest 3 as a better number….however, incentives (possibly test match allocations) should be awarded to franchises who excede the target.

We need to try and make this program as incentive based as possible…..money seems to be the only thing we understand, why noy make it the bench mark?

Also, if anyone was to suggest franchises would field only black/colored players(even ones who are not ready for S14 level) so they could get to host all the test matches…..well then they need to be careful of relegation from the S14?

comments?

KWV Hanbana is a wing, end of story. Sorry but the guy is the best wing in world rugby at present. So why should he be considered a quota player for the Bulls on Wing?
And i think the Quota thing is bullshit.and most of the kak people speak here to lol.
Habana a quota player LMFAO. Here lies the problem, Habana is black, yet the best in his posistion, so now the dooses that make these desicions have let this backfire on them?

New Zealand is finding it increasingly difficult to field four “pakeha” in their super 14 teams. In a year or so the Auckland Blues & Waikato will be 100% polynesian with only Canterbury matching anything like the true demographics of New Zealand. Meanwhile, Fiji, Somoa et al continue to struggle with rugby at grass roots while the NZRFU rub their hands with glee as the cash flows in like a tidal stream

KWV,

Yes he is a centre as well!

By: KWV

hkgk,
habana is a CENTRE (never-mind brilliant), yet he’s filling the spot in the Bulls team that is reserved for a quota player. Even I’m pissed. Play him at centre.

Quota confusion will never be resolved. As long as there are quotas, there will be confusion. What exactly is a quota player?

What for example is so black about Bryan Habana – he went to KES, he is a Bloubul liefling, he is brilliant, yet he is filling the spot in the Bulls team that is reserved for a quota player. I will be pissed of if I was him.

There has never been real commitment to development. That is the reason why there is a surplus of wings other than white. Identify the talent from U/19 and U/21 and give them preferential treatment. There is nothing to be ashamed of to give talented youngsters other than white preferential treatment. It worked for almost 40 yrs under NP rule, and for a nation still in transition, it could work.
