If any of these unions were smart they’d snap up Wandile Mjekevu from the Lions…..Perhaps the Cheetahs who are playing at 10 on the wing and Benjamin is a hard worker but average…..The Sharks could have a look as well cos he is better than both Ludik and Richards…Sithole & Mjekevu on the wings…..Woooweee!!!

Mjekevu if possible must play some 7′s next year if Lions mess around with him.

Yes I do, i know he played for Wp, just saying that there are an abundance of young players ready to step up!

John-Henry Harris Junior Boks 2011
Michael van Vuuren Junior boks 2011
Piet Rademan Junior Boks 2011
JC Astle Junior Boks 2011
Carl Wegner called up to Junior boks 2011 as cover
Johan Goosen Junior Boks 2011

Then you can add Mjekevu, Jaco taute, and paul Jiordaan as well. See many players outside WP

AC on why Catrakilis is better than Dollie….

“Since Van Aswegen will be out for much longer than expected we [WP] had two ways of addressing the matter,” said Coetzee.

“The one approach was to be conservative and the other was to be aggressive in our selection.

“I’ve had a chance to look at the two players at training and I looked for one that had the ability to run the show along the backline.

“I needed a flyhalf who could give the side direction, make good decisions, make the right [playing] calls as well as holding his own on defence.”

Catrakilis’ goal-kicking ability may have also swung the vote in his favour as Coetzee referred to him the “most accurate place-kicker in our system”.

Coetzee felt that Dollie will have a chance to prove himself again at Currie Cup level but felt Catrakilis was the one to go with for Friday’s game.

“He’s [Dollie] a talented player and it’s my duty to provide him with an opportunity to show what he can do at this [Currie Cup] level,” said Coetzee.

“I also won’t consider bringing in a flyhalf from outside to solve the problem because at WP we want to back our own guys.”

@mxhosa(mxhosa)-36: Ha ha, you two should get out more, there is a big wide world outside the borders of the Cape! Not every player coming out of the Cape is SA's next best hope. The players mentioned are all good players, but there is hordes f young players equally as good! You only have to see how the WP performed in the Craven Weejk, to realise, the future of SA is definately not in WP!! The WProblems have had wnderful players over many years, but alas STILL NO CUPS!! 11 years and counting!!
