[QUOTE="SomeOke, post: 538089, member: 59145"] Yeah I'd hate to see Taute moved to the wing, I'd saying playing him at outside is already less than optimal, and moving him to the wing is just buggering him around. Besides outside's who are moved to the wing, have a tendency to drift in occasionally on defence, so I feel like it would be more risk than it's worth. It is quite a good point that we have secured a top 4 spot but I'm not sure that means HM will want to experiment, winning every game in the NH will do a lot to consolidate public pressure back home, however there isn't much doubt in my mind that: 9. Pienaar 10. Lambie 11. Mvovo 12. JdV. 13. JdJ 14. Hougaard 15. Taute Would be the best bet in terms of keeping things fairly staple while giving Taute a run in his preferred position and Mvovo another chance (which he does deserve especially considering Hougaard has been given a fair opportunity on the wing). As for forwards? Bench might get dabbled with but in Flip's defence the penalty last game felt more like an accumulative team punishment rather than something Flip did himself, and as I said I'm not sure who I would replace CJ with at such short notice, tight-head is a really worry past Jannie atm. edit: Oh [URL="http://www.rugby365.com/article/50760-bok-lock-cited-for-eye-gouging"]****[/URL], Eben citing for alleged eye-gouging.
