Lexx Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 And Kolisi is not even in the bok squad......... They are Underestimating England,and its going to bite them in the ass, and choosing wynand Olivier. Oh please.......
'Dale Posted June 2, 2012 Author Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) I thought that those missed line out calls would sink the Stormers.Their defense was just awesome. :-) Edited June 2, 2012 by Puncheur
Christie Posted June 3, 2012 Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) Bulls vs. Stormers was a tight game. Bulls back-line play was one dimensional, the wings never got the ball. Imo it is a mistake to move Hougard to wing, it takes him out of the game completely because of how they play, and weakens the defence in the 9-10 channel. Perhaps the back-line driving was because the Stormers forced them to play like this. They could have drop-kicked more, when they saw they could not breach the defence. Good win for the Stormers, with a lot of injuries. Kolisi was super Habanna had good games. Â Re. the bok squad:It looks quite good, looks like form playes were selected. Glad to see no old playes coming out of retirement, although I thought the Fourie dP captain anouncement was already made? We have enough talent, and need to look towards the next WC. Kirchner and W Olivier will not make my B team, prefer Lambie, Steyn, Taute at 15, and how about de Jong at center? I also wont go with Spies and Potgieter [edit re Potgieter: I may be confusing players ]with the fwds. Edited June 3, 2012 by Christie
Benjamin Posted June 3, 2012 Posted June 3, 2012 Sweet stormers. That last try was technically brilliant. Great line and offload by Siya. Can't teach that. I rate him to be a bok for a long time. Bok squad? Where is Brussouw? I thought he was a guarantee. Nice for Keegan though. Hope he starts at 8. Jean at 13?

Kolisi was super Habanna had good games.   Bulls' ball was too slow to stun the well organised Stormers defence, alongside their one-dimensional play.Steyn's drop kicks (missed) was a psychological boost for the visiting team as the Bulls could not penetrate.Even the Spies try was questionable.

He is getting old.
flymango Posted June 3, 2012 Posted June 3, 2012 Not sure whether to comment about the Bok squad on this thread or on the "More Steyn" thread, but here goes ... ... based on the squad announced, here's my starting line up with the bench for the tests. Then for fun, I select a "midweek" team, with the starting test team not allowed in the midweek team at all. With my eye on the future, Chili's my captain, much the same way Francois Pienaar was chosen as captain by Kitch Christie (i.e. not the first choice player in his position but the first choice captain yet can stand his own in his position).  MY TEST TEAM15 Lambie14 JP13 Jean12 Francois Steyn11 Habana10 "More" Steyn9 Hougaard8 Spies7 Alberts6 Marcel Coetzee (displacing Brussouw - biggest shock)5 Juandre Kruger4 Eben Etzebeth3 Jannie2 Chiliboy (captain)1 Beast TEST BENCH16 Ruan17 Zane Kirchner18 Werner Kruger19 Bismarck20 Franco vd Merwe21 Keegan Daniel MY "MIDWEEK" TEAM15 Kirchner14 Basson13 Wynand Olivier (I wouldn't have him in my squad)12 JJ Engelbrecht (even though a wing but based on my own selection criteria)11 Mvovo (up until the Loftus game he was my first choice but Habana playing of his best rugby at the moment - but Mvovo's time will come)10 Elton (deserves to be in the squad, but I think lucky that Goosen is injured)9 Ruan Pienaar8 Keegan Daniel7 Jacques Potgieter (he may yet make the test line up - together with Kolisi the find of the season in my view)6 Kankowski (doesn't deserve his place compared to Brussouw and Kolisi)5 Flip van der Merwe4 Franco van der Merwe (good player - he'll still have his day in the test team)3 Werner Kruger (solid tighthead and may yet displace Jannie in the test team)2 Adriaan Strauss (world class player at the wrong place and time with Bismarck and Chiliboy)1 Coenie Oosthuizen (his work rate may yet see him on the test bench ahead of Werner - all depends on who is going to play 80 - Beast or Jannie?) MIDWEEK BENCH16 Jano Vermaak (Why he's in I don't know. Good, solid player, but I'm not sure he's international caliber. And the way the Bulls use him and move Hougaard is a strategic mistake in my view. Cost them big time against the Stormers.)
