It’s all too easy to see the black or coloured as just quota players when they fit in that category. Regardless, quotas are the only way to address unconscious bias. sometimes it will mean undeserved players get picked, sometimes it will mean deserved players get picked when they wouldn’t have otherwise. I don’t want to derail this thread, so I won’t reply back here, happy to take it elsewhere. I kinda agree re the 18/13 split, but I think other teams don’t have as much luxury in terms of utility in the backs. Pollard can play flyhalf, fullback and 12, Jantjies Too, kriel can play centre and wing, Herschel has come on at wing once I think, Frans can play midfield, flyhalf and fullback, Damian can probably play centre, Gelant at wing, ...
