our starting locks and loosies should be:
Locks: Etsebeth, Alberts
loosies: Deon Fourie, Vermuelen, Flo

I think HM saw the RWC QF the same as me – Brussow getting thrown around like a rag doll – which was sad

And talk about dropping Duane….are you mad?!? Oh thats right, just a bulls fan

here we go, south africans can’t be proud of their players without some sourpuss feeling precious that their countryman is not mentioned…Flo is playing well end off, you don’t like it being mentioned …jump off a cliff.

i for one praise players for form or class regardless of nationality…

@NZINCHINA-55: lol agreed. They are already starting to liken him to McCaw. Silly stuff really.

Hmmm. Wait a second. ABs get double Scots’ points. Boks get double Scots’ points. Boks terrible, ABs incredible?

Hey. I agree the boks were not as good as I wanted, but everybody’s blowing NZ’s win out of proportion. There were a few minutes in the Scotland game (2nd half) a week ago that it did seem like the ABs would receive a good kick in the behind.

@NZINCHINA-55: Agree about JPP - he is good but very overrated on KEO. Flo has been colossal though. Not the best forward in the world, but looks like a future Bok captain.

Won’t be too long before Flo is proclaimed as the best forward in world rugby by the KEO scribes, they awarded JPP the back award a few weeks back.

@Transformation-53: Only played 4 matches against the AB = not often. Name any test against the AB that he got smashed?. MOTM 2 out 4 times. I made no claims on Brussouw beating the AB single handedly. Only asked you if Flo got any MOTM awards against the AB? Be sure brain is engaged before mouth speaks.

that is just a kak stat…brussow does not beat the all blacks alone…he plays new zealand teams often & gets smashed!

pocock has a EVEREST of a loss ratio vs All Blacks, he must be kak in your books…

no player should get credited for beating the all blacks singlehandedly

Still very grudge like towards my bulls players? So be it if you get heineke not to choose bulls players then ill selfishly be very satisfied cos your *** and tat negativity is getting beyond bored at this moment already… Start supporting our bok players as a collective and not on a individual basis leave that to superrugby please!!!

@The Sharks rugby pedigree is packaged as dog food-28: I still don't understand why no-one is mentioning Joe van Niekerk at 8. I've seen a few of his games for Toulon and he's been pretty good.

@Transformation-25: Brussouw never lost a game when playing the AB. MOTM awards in 2 of the 4 matches played. I would call that done and dusted,

@grant10-43: I'd like Brussouw, Biz and Flo on the field at the same time.

@capebull-40: Nope. Read carefully. (Pretend my words are stats, as you seem to understand those....)

By: grant10

grant10 — Mon, 19 Nov 2012 09:14:05 +0000

For me its Vermeulen and Kanko for 8 spot

Brussow and Flo for 6 spot

all the rest can fight for 7 spot….

@capebull-39: Nope, I don’t buy into stats full stop. That’s your game. Which is why I am arguing Duane’s case for him, based on something YOU seem to base your entire rugby rating system on…….

If you take the so-called ‘bad’ stats, you have to take the ‘good’ ones as well.

The day stats can record how effective a tackle was, or how effective a run was is the day stats will mean something to me.

(PS: this weeks stats according to your school of thought, do not show Vermeulen as being simply OK. They show him to be one of the MAIN contributors. The Bizness…..)
