[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 917484, member: 40658"] Ross Cronje is injured and unavailable for the tour. So I think that Papier and Van Zyl will definitely be in the squad. The question will be however that who will be our 3rd pick in that position? The candidates are: [LIST] [*]Louis Schreuder [*]Cameron Wright [*]Shaun Venter [*]Cobus Reinach [*]Francois Hougaard (if Rassie can maybe persuade him to detract his retirement from international rugby) [/LIST] As for the backline, yes I agree that it's the areas we will need more strength. I think Jan Serfontein will get a call, especially since returning from injury and showing great form. Maybe Pat Lambie will also join the squad? But my concern is our right wing. If Serfontein returns, will they move Kriel back to wing, or keep him at 13 (where he has been great all season)? Or are we going to get someone else in as my suspicion is that Kolbe and Willemse will be used at Fullback with Willie gone. I think Leyds is the front runner now for that spot, he's been part of the group during the June tour, and he's been fantastic for WP during the Currie Cup [/QUOTE]
