[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 98604"] Lions line-up: 15- Earl Rose 14- Louis Ludik 13- Jacques Fourie 12- Doppies la Grange 11- Jannie Boshoff 10- Andre Pretorius(capt) 9- Enrico January 8- Willem Alberts 7- Ernst Joubert 6- Cobus Grobbelaar 5- Anton van Zyl 4- Cobus Grobler 3- Kenny McKenzie 2- Willie Wepener 1- Heinke vd Merwe Reserves: 16- Ashton Constant 17- Brian Mujati 18- Gordon Gilfillian 19- Franco vd Merwe 20- Jarno Vermaak 21- Louis Strydom 22- Jaco van Schalkwyk Quite a few guys who are not exactly household names except in their parents` homes here- the Lions will struggle in the loose forwards, with 3 big units who can do precious little but "carry" the ball. Except for V D Merwe, the front row is a bit of a non-entity, and the locks are at best honest grafters. Pretty decent halfback pairing, if January kept up his off-season training regimen- he`s known for packing on the pounds over December. Doppies is a pretty handy attacker at 12, but defensively very vulnerable. Some decent attacking runners at the back, but one cannot live on turnovers alone- they just don`t have the firepower up front to, well, front up. [/QUOTE]
