[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 1053810, member: 39190"] I have a lot for time for those boys. I just wonder how many of them will make the step up. I suppose if someone like Wiese and Nicolaas JvR can come into the Bok fold out of the blue its not unimaginable. Still a ways short of Vermeulen are the likes of Wiese, Roos and Louw. But they are young. You can add Jaco Coetzee and maybe even JJ Van der Mescht into the mix if we are talking big ball carriers. Hell, with the way Jake White is moving Jan-Hendrik Wessels across the pack he might end up at 8. A couple of those boys are HEAVY. I hope we put a pack into the field just for size just for fun one of these days. I have this obsessions with a "1 ton scrum". Coming in at 1017kgs: 1 TdT, 2 JH Wessels, 3 W Louw, 4 L Roets, 5 L De Jager, 6 Vermeulen, 7 PSdT, 8 Van der Mescht. I get where you are coming from with the exclusion of Coetzee but to me that still doesn't make sense when you look at the inclusion of Kwagga Smith. We were short on experience with Vermeulen and PSdT out and FLouw retired. Coetzee just made sense. Him and then 1 or 2 of the promising youngsters. [/QUOTE]
