Don't want to offend any 'Boks fans out there coz I don't know how well liked Heyneke Meyer is in SA but so far into his tenure I think his player selection is mad!
- He picks the very good but not Test class (yet) JJ Engelbrecht ahead of Gio Aplon
- He plays Zane Kirchner at full-back! (again, Aplon?)
- He continues to ignore Anton Bresler and Charl McLeod (as squad players I mean, they're better than J. Kruger and Vermaak)
- And the back row! Keegan Daniel was dropped for Jacques Potgieter!!
Did I mention Zane Kirchner?!
Maybe it's just my opinion, coz everyone has strong opinions on selection but I just don't see any reasoning behind it all.
It seems to me that he's picking too many Bulls and not enough Stormers or Sharks (Kolisi, Aplon, McLeod, Bresler, Vermeulen, de Jongh, Kankowski, Grant, etc.).
