Probably the best break he could get.

At least 2 months away from the field, this will give him time to hopefully study his own game and will still be able to do most of his training.

Will come back well rested & with greater hunger, a blessing in disguise really that he’s not with HM as it seems a lot of reputations will be in tatters after the Boks Australasia Tour.

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-62: Just joking, agree, would be a strange move for him. But, money talks

@Mr Black-61: hehe i'm not sure elton sees himself that way. he is after all the 1st choice 10 at his union and, according to his dad, mor than capable of being the 1st choice springbok 10. this will be interesting to watch.

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-60: Exactly, thats why we want Jantjies. He is a Youngster to provide backup to a Sprinbok player.

@Mr Black-59: not quite the same. the bulls develop an incumbent and he keeps the starting spot with a youngster groomed to provide backup. the incumbent, form permitting, plays most of the critical cc/super games and the the youngster plays mostly vc and a few cc games and if theres an injury he slots in for the incumbent.

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-58: Bulls have been doing it for years. Many boks has warmed the bench for the Bulls when they could have played for the lions.

@Craven-57: thats my thinking, its gonna be tricky managing both of their expectations. and the worst thing woud be a loss of form for one of them. then sa rugby loses.

Jantjies is too good a flyhalf to have him warming the bench all the time.

@Fern-54: @sharks_lover-55: ok if they're both happy with such a setup then its a good move. it isn't the standard practise here or in nz so would be novel my the sharks. i always thought freedy was brought in because of lambies age and injuries with the coaches looking to have him mature into the established 10 role.

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-52: To with the SR comp you have to have 2 top notch 10's, Like when Lambie got injureds, we luckily had Freddy, think we would have went as far if we didnt have that depth???

bakkies it is called having depth
we need someone when lambie is with the boks

wp is a burial ground for rugby careers.

@Fern-44: is this a tacit admission that lambie is not good enough at 10? wow cant see the reasoning otherwise. there's no point in having two talented 10's sharing the the 1st team spot. either or really.

sl,it is odd how most players careers nosedive when they move to province

@Fern-48: For Sure, like i said i dont think we need many players, Cilliers would halp as we know he is a Durban boy and we need a better backup, specially now that he is a Bok Also Jantjes would be good with Lambie, center is now in a good place, even Locks now good, specially with PSDT comming through as he has

sl
the problem is the players must understand that the sharks can only have so many contracted players.
the worst players just have to settle for western problems

@Fern-44: Yup, Guess the Sharks mean business lol, we still need Cilliers back home as well as maybe Taute??
