Bismarck blow for Boks

Bismarck blow for Boks

18 Aug 2012

Bismarck du Plessis is expected be sidelined for the rest of the year with a serious knee injury.

The prognosis of Du Plessis’s injury is not yet known, but Springbok head coach Heyneke Meyer has confirmed to keo.co.za that initial signs indicate that the hooker will be out of action for a lengthy period.

Du Plessis was carried off the field as he damaged knee ligaments during the opening moments of the Boks’ 27-6 win over the Pumas.

‘The doctors haven’t given their final call, but Bismarck should be out for the rest of the season. It’s a big blow for us,’ said Meyer. ‘We have an inexperienced pack and Bismarck is one of our leaders and experienced players. With Chiliboy also injured, we do lose a lot of experience at hooker as Adriaan hasn’t played many Tests and Tiaan Liebenberg recently joined the squad.

‘But I do have faith in both those players and they will need to show their worth with these opportunities coming up.’

Adriaan Strauss will start for the Boks during Du Plessis’s absence against Argentina in Mendoza next weekend, while Liebenberg will come on to the bench.

Meyer also confirmed that lock Andries Bekker and wing Bryan Habana received medical attention after the game, but both players should recover in time for the trip to South America.

    Ritchie’s still batting for the other side though

    Is he a bender or a sender?

    Does he have scratch marks on his chest or on his back?

    You surely have discussed it on Silver Fern?

    @victoriabok-159: you seem to have a fascination with man on man action..

    why is this?

    have you repressed your feelings?

    I personally dont know what Ritchies or Dans sexual persuasion is, but your obsession with their sexuality cant be healthy..

    I hoep you are able to find out just to ease your troubled mind… but hey, id sort of hope they arent benders, because it wouldnt say much for your Afrikaaner/South African male if NZ benders were regularly giving it to them on the rugby field huh?

    again, do try to use the thing between your ears, I know its difficult, but concentrate and try..

    If we have three million people with real access to sports facilities, coaches etc of International standard it would be a lot

    Most people are more interested in having something to eat and warming their shack than training for the Olympics

    do you enjoy living in a country where you dont need to be in a gated community and you dont have to have security guards with dogs patrol the perimeter to keep the “undesirables” out?

    @poppa69-170: In the immortal words of Trevor Noah: “Caster, he’s a woman”….

    Fark me, Banshee got a Kiwi mate called Carol… She makes Caster look like a delicate prima ballerina and had a face suitable only for a Burqa, strues bob… Bless both of their souls.

    Now Carol apparently is an Auckland “hottie”…. When I realised this exercise in relativity I immediately felt sorrowful solidarity with the rugga buggers and Keolings of Shaky isles… You poor sods… You should know by now, sheepshagger aint an insult… its almost a word conveying pitiful understanding :lol:

    @victoriabok-184: he did better than yours too..

    but dont forget, the people we sent over, they met the Olympic qualifying standard, and we could afford to send them..

    again, I know your country is too concrned with the greed of individuals to ever collectively come together and move into the 21st century.

    just dont blame us for doing what you guys cant seem able to…ok?

We just get on with it.
