[QUOTE="stormer2010, post: 284346"] Peter de Villiers is said to take a touring team of 37 players. That is a huge squad but he has indicated that he is interested in taking youngsters along if only to give them exposure to the "Bok culture". Here is my list of who I think should tour in order (based on Currie cup and 3Nations form); Props WP Nel Wian du Preez Tendai Mtawarira Jannie du Plessis John Smit (still not a prop IMO but can't see selectors facing it yet) Hookers Bismarck du Plessis Adrian Strauss Tiaan Liebenberg Locks Victor Matfield Bakkies Botha Anton van Zyl Andries Bekker Flankers Heinrich Brussouw Dewald potgieter Juan Smith Francois Louw Schalk Burger Danie Russouw (can cover lock along with Juan Smith) no.8 Willem Alberts Ashley Johnson Pierre Spies Scrum half Fourie du Preez Jano Vermaak Sarel Pretorius Fly half Morne Steyn Ruan Pienaar? I fear SA's lack of depth at pivot will be exposed. Playing El Mago in the CC hasn't helped. Centers Jacques Fourie Wynand Olivier Juan de Jongh Riaan Swanepoel Wing Bryan Habana JP Pietersen Gerhard van der Heever Lionell Mapoe Fullback Stefan Terblanche (still the best player in the Sharks outfit but sadly won't see the Bok jersey again) Riaan Viljoen Francois Hougaard has to tour but I don't know wher toplay him.. 9, 11, 14, 13, 12?? Well, that adds up to 37 with a 21/16 forwards/backs split. Lets hope and pray Morne Steyn doesn't get injured and JdV and Frans Steyn returns before 2011. [/QUOTE]
