Trans – Emerging Boks is not registered as the official SA second team. Still a team, but the union has to nominate an official second team. SARU did not. If you followed the recent tug between Wales and Scotland over a player it was same thing. Did Wales nominate their u20s as their officials second team in 2010. Turns out they did.

@Koning_Rassie-39: Yes quotas claim another victim, barritt was never good enough to usurp jean de villiers, francois steyn, meyer bosman - who have all played 12 for the Boks since he left for the UK...bloody useless quotas

@gecko-40: how did the Emerging Boks compete in the Nations Cup in Romania without being registered with the IRB?

SA has no second string side. SARU disbanded SA A side, started Emerging Boks but never registered it with IRB as SA second string side. Spectacular own goal.

Looking forward to seeing how Brad gets on, and at 13.. At least some more Rugga to watch in wait of the Super 15.

@Forseti-16: Read Kevin Pietersens book. His a d*ck of note. Farking tatooed the 3 Lions on his arm. Says that proving the cricket loving public in SA wrong is the driving force in his career. He hasn't had a decent knock for the Poms in 2 years and will soon get the chop. Trott on the other hand is cocky but is a freakishly talented.

@Transformation-29: If his Mum is English, why is he non English? Half English half Saffa. Botha is a different story....

How come Barritt is eligible to play for England?
According to IRB regulations A Player who has played for the senior fifteen-a-side NationalRepresentative Team or the next senior fifteen-a-side National
Representative Team or the senior National Representative Sevens Team
of a Union is not eligible to play for the senior fifteen-a-side National
Representative Team or the next senior fifteen-a-side National
Representative Team or the senior National Representative Sevens Team
of another Union.

For the purposes of this Regulation, a Player is deemed to have played for
the senior fifteen-a-side National Representative Team or the next senior
fifteen-a-side National Representative Team of a Union if:
(a) He is selected for such team to play in an International Match against
the senior fifteen-a-side National Representative Team or the next
senior fifteen-a-side National Representative Team of another Union
(or in a fifteen-a-side international Match against another Union’s
senior or next senior Touring Squad during an IRB approved
International Tour) and is present at the Match played by that team
either as a replacement, substitute or a playing member of that team
and has, at the time of the Match, reached the age of majority;

Surely the Emerging Boks is our next senior side.

A pity this young man was lost to the green and gold.

Always rated him.

Better than Donkey De Villiers…. maybe not better than Francois Steyn though.
