[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 531416, member: 39190"] Whitehead is the one we should have held on to. Apart from Jaque Fourie here are some young backs the Stormers could've/should've held onto but couldn't all within the space of about a year; Whitehead (center)(Sharks) Engelbrecht (wing, center)(Bulls) Pollard (10)(Bulls) Sadie (center)(Bulls) Poolman (wing)(Connaught?) Cronje (10,15)(Bulls) Hoffman (9,10,15)(Sharks) Catrakilis (10)(Kings) Paul Bosch (center)(somewhere in France) Dylan des Fountain (center,wing)(?) They will go where they will go I suppose and I wouldn't drop one of Habana or Aplon. I also think Taute coming in makes up for the 15's we've lost. We should have looked at options other than sticking to JdV and Grant out of a sense of loyalty though IMO. And looked for a world class 9; we had one in the academy in the form of Hougie. That said if we can lure Jantjies, JdV gets some form.. and we get Groom at 9 then it could go well. Juan de Jongh at 13 with some space and a back three of Habana, Aplon and Taute... Pat Howard and Brache are ones to watch out for so while we lose classy players we do have some still up our sleeve. [/QUOTE]
