Cancel everything else and GO. You will never have another chance to see a Shark/Sader game over there. This is very special. First Super game ever played over in NH. Don’t WASTE this great opportunity. GET to the game. Don’t even ask questions. Get your mates and get yourself to Twickers.

Damn if I was there I would put EVERYTHING on hold and get to the game. Only a 45 min flight out of Holland. GO.

Do you know 4man that used to post here? He is organising a get together with other Shark supporters. Speak to Carol. She knows about it. Or I will speak to 4man on RT.

It would be gr8 fun to go it and maybe I’ll get a few other Saffers to go with.

Plum is no fool. By playing John a bit in each position he is getting him match fit. Also it is a bonus as well by giving the others a bit of a rest.

Remember John did play a full 80min in the warm up game at Newlands. Would be nice to see him eventually shift over to hooker and give Bissie a rest. Think we gonna need all our front row to have a bit of a rest for the Saders game at Twickers.

Are you gonna try to get to that game at Twickers? Less than a hour flight from where you are.

Heaven forbid you may be right but you cannot conceivably couch it as truth when you have an iota of fact.

Now what Transie said about JS propping against Henderson is true, but tell me Transie how did Henderson figure in the other games played by the Reds. As far as I am aware not too shabbily.

Plum’s conundrum is to get JS match fit without compromising results too much and in my HUMBLE opinion he is going about it the right way, by keeping Bissie on the field to cater for JS lack of match fitness and rotating JS with the other 2 front row forwards. That seems to me to be a more logical explanation as opposed to being forced to accomodate JS but then again I have no inside info or facts to support it.

We give Beast a rest and hoping John can play the full 80min. Then move him over to hooker and give Bissie a rest. We gonna need some rested players for Saders at Twickers.

Not many teams can have one player that can play there and give all the front row a bit of a rest.

its a long season so why not rotate the guys if you can?

i find your chirp about brok hilarious :lol:

No problem with rotating players especially in the front row, but after 3 games it is laughable !!!

Again JS playing LH has nothing to do with rotation, but everything to do with JS being capatin and wanting to start, you can disguise it by having a dig at Brock, who played 35 consecutive games and got two 2 major finals all you want but it does not change the facts re JS !!!

Brok Harris?
Did you seriously just slide Brok Harris into your argument.

Perhaps if you watch the Stormers front row performances from last year and specifically Brok Harris’ in the CC final, you will realise the need to rotate players when you get the opportunity.

After 3 games the okes in the front row need a rest ?????????????, goodness me , Brok played 35 consecutive games !!!

The okes in the front row after 3 games have yet to even find their rhythm, it has everything to do with accommodating JS ,he is skipper after all.

Do not try and cover it up with a rotation policy strategy, it’s just enhances your obvious stupidity !!!

Trannie, all that confirms is Plums shrewdness at rotating his players.

He realises Smits worst position is probably 3 so he rested Jannie and gave Smit some game time.

Now he’s resting Beast after a huge battle with Somerville, a great scrummager and playing Smit against Nathan White.

Even speedo boy would love to have this luxury.

Come on now.

Plum must play him @ 3 against the Crusaders @ Twickenham.
