[QUOTE="mrH, post: 416088, member: 52464"] If Smith does not recover in time we should start with the stormers loose trio (Schalk, Louw and Vermuelen). Johnson should come in for vermuelen if he does not recover in time. It also depends on who we are playing. I think Willem and Danie coming off the bench to the 8 and 4 positions respectively is :eek:for the opposition. Danie has slowed down too much from the last world cup to be at Flank or 8 unless its really required. He still does play well in those positions. Even having Brussow off the bench instead of Willem for the last 20-30 mins would work well because thats the time that turnovers and retention become critical to winning. With all those tired arms/bodies at the breakdown it should make things easier for Brussow. Schalk could move to 8 and Vermuelen/Johnson would come off. I dont see a place for Spies. Louw should be able to resolve the flank line out issue. [/QUOTE]
