[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 523096, member: 24910"] Louw is by far the closest thing that South Africa have to a genuine openside right now (as Brussow seems to be out of favour / injured right now), so I think his inclusion is definitely warranted (as SomeOke has already mentioned). I would consider him a openside first and foremost - he is capable of playing on the blindside because of his size, but his style of play is that of a genuine openside flanker (e.g. hitting every breakdown, running great support lines etc). I probably would have kept Daniel in the squad too, but I do think Louw is a much better openside than Daniel in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
