[QUOTE="Iron Mike, post: 326266, member: 42045"] I do not know, a lot of the Boks front row, but if you guys won't critisize me for that I will pick a 4-15 team. The reason I quote you is because I disagree with Bekker at 4. Bekker does not hit rucks, which I have said before many a time, Botha is excellent at that, you can't really have two skilled lineout jumpers, that is like putting Morne Steyn and Peter Grant in 12/13, because one of them could play 12, but another type of that player in 13 would mean you have no direct runners in the team, I know this is a bad example but I'm tired and can't think of a better one right now. Or two Ma'a Nonus, I mean sure, you have the power, but you don't have the skill and the distribution you would have if you had different types of players. Botha and Matfield compliment each other. 4) Botha 5) Matfield 6) Brussouw but injured so, Schalk Burger. 7) Juan Smith (or is he still injured?) 8) Pierre Spies, or Schalk Burger if Brussouw is fit (I'm not a huge fan of Spies, and against France you could see how easily he was bullied off the park by Morgan Parra, never gained a metre apart from his try) 9) Rory Kockott (If this is how you spell his name? Huge fan of his) 10) Morne Steyn, Peter Grant as backup (did he get called up?) 11) Habana 12) Juan de Jongh 13) Jaque Fourie 14) Gerhard Van de Heever (8 tries during the Super 14, what more could you want?) 15) Stefan Terblanche [/QUOTE]
