He cant be any worse than Burden who was made a p**s by Etsebeth on Saturday .

@Bagel-1: He keeps throwing the beers after fetching too many!

With Flouw out, he may be a Bok openside flank next…

Ou doos is quite right on Fourie – he’s by far the best hooker currently playng in SA with Bismarck out – any wp side with fourie in is 20% improved and he’d do the same for tge Boks – our lot are absolute fools.

He really developed into a higher level player this year. Affective in both flank nd hooker positions. Does throw poorly at times. But his dual ability will be a big help to the squad

didnt really rate him before this year, but he showed his class this season

is he test quality .. We’l have to see. Tiaan isnt exactly setting the world alight when he appears of the bench for the boks. In fact tiaan looks alittle out of his depth

maybe im being harsh. But whn bismark is the positional bench mark its hard to compare

scarra showing alot of promise. Was all over the place on saturday making tackles, providing support etc

I would have kept him at 6, i think that scarra is a very promising player, I would like to see more of him next year,

He’s a super rugby bench player. Poor thrower as a hooker, Tian far better option. And he wouldn’t get a look in the back row with Schalk, Duane and Siya fit. Everyone gets all excited saying how disappointed they are because he didn’t make the Boks side. Put it in perspective guys, he had a good Currie Cup campaign… thats all.

Great thing we could manage to keep Deon, he’s very useful in a long SRugby tournament where injuries come into play.

@grant10-5: Am also very pleased for you guys that you get to keep such a player. It hasn't been the trend you know, where guys not in the Boks mix, decide to stick around. Even Louw left, which I feel has less to do with WP letting him go.

Deon Fourie makes for a fantastic option on the bench, since he covers hooker and loose forward.

Great impact player.

Brilliant player to have in the Stormers mix….I am bloody relieved we retained him.

@Transformation-3: Hehehe Trans and him moving back to hooker when the real boys stand up in the back row makes a mockery of his claim that he is the best loose forward in SA as well! So we can scratch those two skop selections from the board, only leaves us with 523 others...

” In WP’s 12-match campaign, team captain
Fourie (a specialist hooker) only started in
the No 2 jersey in two games during the
opening rounds of the domestic
competition.”

and skop would like to harass us to believe that fourie is a better hooker than strauss, chiliboy etc yet he hardly ever starts for his own team, please.
