RYAN VREDE says that the Springboks’ preferred 22 for the big matches in the World Cup won’t differ greatly from the one named to face the Wallabies at Kings Park.

    Spot on. Just can’t agree with Aplon starting ahead of Habana. Habana puts huge pressure on the opposition from kick-offs. Didn’t have as much space as he needs in the Super 15, but is a game breaker.

    Also defensively Habana is superb. Playing rush defense – rushing up – takes a hell of a lot of courage for a winger. Instinctively we hold back and give them more space. That’s why not just anyone can step in for JPP or Habana.

    @hendrikp(hendrikp)-13Um yes he also rushes up out of his line leaving huge gaps which the AB’s have capitalised on numerous times…not sure how you rate his defence as ‘superb’…

    @hendrikp(hendrikp)-13: I agree, but we are in the minority here. Habana and JP must be our wings for the big games.

    @Atreides(Atreides)-24:

    Give me some evidence of this. The Stormers also use a rush defense where they bring the wingers up to prevent the ball going wide with any space. Habana rarely missed tackles. Don’t underestimate the part he plays in that brilliant Stormers defense.

    What he did last year doesn’t bother me. If he got beaten a couple of times for rushing out of the line, so be it. What I care about is what he can do in the future, and outside of Habana and JP we don’t have any wingers that can play rush defense – not any that we can bring in at this stage anyway.

    Habana has copped way too much unwarranted criticism. How can you criticise his defense when the Stormers rarely conceded tries? How can you question his attack when they rarely gave him the ball… and when they did he out-scored players like Masaga & Guildford.

    @dermie(dermie)-27:

    Not sure what your point is, but it’s rubbish – in the politest way possible :)

    Habana rarely even goes for intercepts. He moves up on the opposition player, shutting him down before he can do anything with the ball. I think you’re mistaking him for Pieter Rossouw during his last season.

  • 29.Atreides: Reply to this comment
    12 Aug 2011, 14:19 pm

    @hendrikp(hendrikp)-26: Easy tiger, I also think we need him but he has major defensive problems which the last 2 years haven’t coached out of him. And if he’s being marked as a possible gap by opponents then that does bother me…because they knwo he’s going to dart out looking for an intercept.

    @dermie(dermie)-27:

    And his tackle completion percentage is sure as hell a lot better then most other wingers in SA, if not all of them.

    When I see Habana going for the intercept, but not getting to the ball or shutting down the player, I’ll be surprised. You just don’t see it very often.

    come on,you’ve never seen habana rush out of line for the glory intercept.i think it’s his biggest fault.

  • 32.hendrikp: Reply to this comment
    12 Aug 2011, 14:25 pm

    @Atreides(Atreides)-29:

    He is instructed to rush out. It’s not necessarily for intercepts. How can they put Aplon in when he hasn’t played in this system before? I know for a fact that there’s more to playing a rush defense then the coach simply asking you to do it. It takes courage to break the defensive line. It’s something you need to practice.

    Putting anyone besides Habana on that wing means changing our defense entirely. Makes no sense :)

    @dermie(dermie)-31:

    Believe what you may. I see a damn good defender who often shuts down opposition backline players even when there is an overlap.

    For me, he is under-appreciated. Throw him in a Crusaders jersey where he would’ve scored a few more tries doing exactly what he did with the Stormers and everyone would be calling him our most important player.

    @hendrikp(hendrikp)-33: yeah he is a good tackler when he’s in line,it’s when he breaks the straight line,he leaves holes.

    @hendrikp(hendrikp)-26: I was a very big fan of Habana, but in that first home game against Australia last year, I lost all faith in him. He almost single handedly cost us the game with 2 very bad errors. I hope he proves everyone wrong on Saturday, but I’m not holding my breath.

    He lost his confidence, and one could see it in the way he played. Rolling his head, looking uninterested, and one could tell he didn’t want to be on the field. I hope he finds his form again, because on his day, Habana is the best winger in the world.

    @dermie(dermie)-34:

    When is he ever in line? His job is to rush out of line and shut players down!! He does it at kick-offs and practically every time the opposition are out of their own territory.

    Even if he does get beaten every now and then… it prevents the opposition from playing the ball out wide. If you can stop that you can look at counter rucking or forcing the opposition to start playing territory. Heinrich Brussow especially lives off preventing the ball being spread around.

    It’s worked for them before. And I can see it working on Saturday.

    @Jer1cho(Jer1cho)-35:

    Can’t recall the test myself but I get what you’re saying. Still though, my point about them having to completely change their defense if they were to play Aplon stands. Aplon hasn’t been drilled in playing rush defense. And for a guy with his frame it would be asking a lot. Habana has the courage to at the very least try it, and most of the time it serves its purpose.

    @hendrikp(hendrikp)-36: that’s fine,but when you go the intercept and miss,thats the ball not the man,you can’t tackle the ball.

    @dermie(dermie)-38:

    I don’t understand what you’re saying, but I get your theory on him rushing out of line.

    Expect the same on Saturday though… and for it to come off, even if it means a few cover tackles if the line gets broken.

    Correction. They didn’t get rid of him. He wanted to play cricket :) If your heart isn’t in it.

    You have to remember his wife was also a NZ netballer… so he was probably eyeing up being home a lot more.

    @hendrikp(hendrikp)-39:

    In a drift defense, which the Boks played last year, the defensive winger is often required to shoot straight on the outside shoulder of the opposing winger, because the defending 13 covers the opposing winger on his inside.

    Habana was guilty of overshooting or shooting at the wrong time, but this was down due to communication errors, not because Habs simply wanted to go for the intercept.

    It was his job to go for it, if the situation allowed it.
