Spies blow for Boks

Spies blow for Boks

Pierre Spies has been ruled out of the Rugby Championship because of an injury to his left ring finger.

The No 8 injured his finger in the Super Rugby qualifier against the Crusaders last month.

According to Springbok team doctor Craig Roberts, initial X-rays did not reveal any significant abnormality.

‘However, on review and further investigation, including a CT scan and assessment by a hand specialist in Cape Town, it was found that Pierre had a fracture into the joint,’ said Roberts.

‘Surgical correction is needed in order to prevent permanent damage. The usual rehabilitation time for these kinds of injuries is eight to 12 weeks.’

    @poppa69-204:
    Yeah bro,looks like the Aussies looking fresh,so if Abs can get over them in this game will set them right for the rest of the comp….well heres hoping.

  • 206.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    AB team named tomorrow isnt it? with the chiefs making the final quite a few of ours should be rested too, so think that isn’t really a concern.
    always tough to beat in Aus, but think their midfield is a real weakness. would be nice to be back in NZ with the win, want to be the inaugural winners of TRC. time will tell though

    @poppa69-206:
    Most of the Abs basically pick themselves, with Nonu coming in for Smith and Corey Jane slotting in at right wing and Read at no 8.Would like to see Cane picked ahead of Thompson on the bench.
    As for Oz, if they click on the night,and Abs are slightly off their game, then Abs will lose, will be won or lost at the breakdown, Pocock v Ab loose trio.

    Pity you typed so fast in your anger that you f uc ked up your comeback!

    Doos!

  • 209.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    whatever. anger? at you ? bwahahaha. predictive text. we all know what I meant, aye keos b.itch.

  • 210.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    he’s right though about you being such an intellectual giant. your one of the front seat window lockers aren’t you?

    Te Ranga – yep cant understand why Thompson is selected, doesnt make the step up Pocock is a great player, but he doesn’t have the support in the loose. that’s where Aussie fall down and where SA stumbled when Brussouw went off in the WC 1/4 final.

  • 211.whatever: Reply to this comment

    your anger is well know on this site………………thrown your toys many times and threatened not to come back. If anyone is Keo’s ***** its you………it’s like a drug, you just can’t do without……….ask Keo

    Doos!

    @Stormerforlife1-12: I doubt it mate…Captain Marshmellow never figures in any tactics by the AB’s or Wallabies…they just blow him away…doesnt matter who turns out for your Team…they will get beat…end of story…! Go the Argies

  • 214.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    whatever. bwahahaha

    look at the tough chicken running. meathead d.utchboy neanderthal.

    still enjoying the dole in NZ mate? why don’t you contribute more than just the repetitive doooos that you have used in your last couple of comments

  • 215.Greenies: Reply to this comment

    Well not to sound mean to the chap as he is on a state,
    but not a big loss.
    Think he would perform in the backline better anyways, was orinally a winger who is only medioca at lossie. Who would have the ball to try him at centre?

  • 216.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    whatever

    it’s just fun seeing dckheads like you constantly trying to be the man. it’s hilarious.
    tell me again how you can be s
    o certain of tone and intent on a blog?

    lmfao. I’ve been laughing at you for years,, but then, I should show more compassion

    you can’t help your condition.

  • 217.Transformation: Reply to this comment

    @Te Rangatira-207: is sam cane a lineout option though? thomson @ 1.96m has been a beacon for the landers lineout…

  • 218.whatever: Reply to this comment

    @poppa69-214:

    You see, you just get so worked up you froth at the mouth and start sprouting the insults………..classic poppadoos rant.

    ps, I don’t have a drop of Dutch blood in my body, not that thats a problem anyway, but just so when you rant, you can rant the truth.

    Doos!

    I know it gets to you!

  • 219.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    again whatever

    how can you possibly know my state? you think im all frothed up? lmfao you can’t know you dckhead,, you make an assumption thats all wrong, and that’s what’s so funny

    but hey, three straight comments you’ve brought out the doooos remark. looks like keo was right.

  • 220.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    all this because whatever couldn’t handle my comment stating SA doesn’t have an eight man with the all round skills of Read

    didn’t counter that with reasons or a name, is it because you couldn’t counter it?

    tell me, which SA 8 is as good as Read?

    you don’t have one with the all round game Read possesses

    but then, we’ve all heard the absolute malarkey of incredible depth saffa retards like whatever continually spout.

  • 221.whatever: Reply to this comment

    @poppa69-220:

    Got nothing to do with Read, it’s got to do with your past performance here on Keo.

    You are a prize doos, there is no other word for you, deal with it!

  • 222.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    hahaha

    so my past performances on keo still upset you so that you come out swinging every time? even when my first comment was rugby related? still no rugby counter though? what to expect from a weepee chicken runner.

    thanks, that’s made my day. the fact you have to get me for past transgressions says it all

    classic

    1-0 poppa

    bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

  • 223.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    so my past performances on keo get you frothing so much you have to put me in my place?

    bwahahahahahhahahahaha

  • 224.whatever: Reply to this comment

    No, just think you are a childish little doos, simple. Nothing more to it really.

    Even your posts today evidence this, as I said, deal with it

    Doos!

  • 225.poppa69: Reply to this comment

    you mean your first response to my rugby related comment displayed your adult maturity? the fact you’ve indicated that revenge is your only motive isn’t a display of your childishness?

    haha keo was right about you

  • 226.Slartibartfast: Reply to this comment

    Jy mors jou asem op die knaap, nie die moeite werd om eers te antwoord nie.

    As for the hand specialist, I hope he never runs out of beer or whisky or whatever he prefers…

  • 227.Te Rangatira: Reply to this comment

    @Transformation-217:
    I can only recall one lineout Sam Cane won in the third Irish test and that kind of fell into his hands,so yes Thompson is a far better lineout exponent than him, I think Hansen should be looking to the future ,whether Cane is the answer has yet to be revealed, only game time will see if he can produce the goods on a consistent basis. As for Thompson,ever since Samo palmed him off last year, the writing has been on the wall regarding his future, and anyways haven’t you bagged him in the past.

    @Slartibartfast-226:
    Hey Slarti who would you replace Spies with?

  • 229.Slartibartfast: Reply to this comment

    @Te Rangatira-227:

    Hoofs for hand Thompson, he gives you 100% every time though, is just not always good enough. How old is Cane, player for the future I am sure.

  • 230.Te Rangatira: Reply to this comment

    @Slartibartfast-229:
    Twenty I think. He was eligible to play for the u/20s this year so he has a big future ahead of him.

  • 231.Te Rangatira: Reply to this comment

    @Slartibartfast-229:
    Depends what type of hooves you mean….. Angus Bull perhaps, me thinks you mean goat.

  • 232.Slartibartfast: Reply to this comment

    @Te Rangatira-228:

    Tough one TR, probably Alberts at 8 but he is not the fastest. We actually have a weakness there with Kanko also a possibility (if available) but he seems to suffer when he puts on the G&G.

    I am a massive Brussow fan and without him the balance of the backrow is a little skew no matter who you put there. Hopefully the Meyer will pick him when he is well…

  • 233.Slartibartfast: Reply to this comment

    @Te Rangatira-231:

    The ones without opposing thumbs to catch the ball with…I like him as a player though just because he always gives the 100%.

  • 234.Te Rangatira: Reply to this comment

    @Slartibartfast-232:
    I like Keegan Daniel cause he has a skillset that is different to most no8s. Brussow is an excellent player and still has alot to offer test rugby.
    @Slartibartfast-233:
    Thompson does give 100% but I have come to the realization that he is not the one.

  • 235.Slartibartfast: Reply to this comment

    @Te Rangatira-234:

    The Meyer is obsessed with size, don’t think he will ever go with Daniel.

    Yes I know but I still like him as a player.

    Valerie comes across as very emotional and sorry to say, angry, not a good look.She was robbed however of something she has worked for over four years and she is entitled to be a tad bitter towards the Belarussian, probably milking the angst side of things way too much, but unfortunately that seems to be part of her personality. Usually she is quite pleasant and very straight up.
