    @schnoggs(schnoggs)-450: This is what must be worrying for All Black fans and even more worrying for Bok fans come world cup time. The All Blacks can not really improve massively on the Crusaders. I would also add Mealamu to the players you have mentioned that can improve the national team from the provincial one. Then take the Queensland Reds who have up until now been the best team in the tournament. Make them your Wallabies, but add Pocock, Beale, O’Connor, Sharp, Polata Nou, Ben Alexander and you seriously enhance the team.
    Boks are way off the pace, but so to perhaps are the All Blacks.

    @HongKongSlong(HongKongSlong)-451: 3 of the top seven teams in the competition.i do not see that as of the pace.You cannot take the play of the Stormers backline into consideration if you take in account the horrible display by their tight five

    @optiplay(optiplay)-453: I think the problem with the Boks and a lot of the SA teams are coaching and in particular selection issues. Only a fool would say that South Africa don’t have the personnel to be in with a shout come world cup time, the problem is we all know there will be quite a few players playing who don’t deserve selection for the squad, let alone the team. From a tactical point of view there never appears to be a plan B for SA teams. Looking at the Reds, Cooper and Genia have really developed the astute and percentage side of their games. They have won games in different manners, not just the cavalier way we all expected them to play.

    @HongKong, agreed – the Wallaby team could look seriously dangerous this year with a bit more experience and some new finds in Robinson, Higginbotham, Davies, etc. There they might have again is too many similar backline players (Beale, O’Connor, Cooper) and not enough direct / larger players – I wonder if Mortlock will take the 13 jumper?

    I am clinging onto the fact that the brand of rugby the boks play suits knock out rugby (I admit its not pretty) and we have the experience. I know the other teams are building experience but it cant compare to ours and I think we will be there or there abouts. As long as the poms dont win…

    @schnoggs(schnoggs)-455: Agreed mate, except for the last sentence. The poms play the most exciting rugby in the world, it would be great to see them win (I’m English)!!!! ;-)
    With regards to the Aussies, I think O’Connor showed a few time this season that he can do a very good job at 12 and he’s wasted on the wing. Beale fullback, Cooper fly half. Ashley Cooper probably best bet at 13, but he’s been horribly out of form this season and then Ione and Davies on the wings if Mitchell doesn’t recover in time. SA have a great game for knock out tournaments, but they have a terrible coach. As long as the Kiwis don’t win….

    Have to agree with Mark and Ryan…it was an awefull display by the stormers…with such excellent supporters they should have done better.They must get rid of proudfoot cause our tight five can’t scrum…the guys had no defence at all
    PATHETIC WHAT A JOKE

    I still beleve that the Wp/Stormers has the best backline in south africa but they need quick ball to play.. Aplon should have been at no.15 and jantjies should never play rugby again cause he is clueless

    So Keo and Vrede take credit for no Cape crusaders but won’t admit that they have over estimated an average team all year.
    You can’t play modern rugby without a decent tactical kicker in your team. Nor can you win big matches if you can’t score tries.
    Stormers may have finished top of the SA log but it was a year where the Bulls didn’t pitch up because their senior players were targetting the WRC.
    Next year will be business as usual when the Bulls seniors retire or chase the euro and the Stormers fail to impress. No SA teams in the semi’s next year unless the sharks or Cheetahs finally take the step up.
    Stormers need to find a flyhalf and a wing (assuming Gio moves to FB) and a more dominant tight 5 will always help otherwise we will have to listen to those 2 dweebs crying again.
