I thought it might be good to have a thread to discuss the likely squads of the various SA teams.
---
To kick off I'll cover the Stormers as well as I can.
Out
Damian de Allende
Eben Etzebeth
JJ Engelbrecht (Sharks)
Sikhumbuza Notshe (Sharks)
Dan Kriel
EW Viljoen (Munster?)
In
No-one confirmed as far as I know
Rumors
Cobus Wiese out? has been linked with Saracens but Dobsons has said its rubbish. Let me just keep it here.
Huw Jones in? supposedly wants to return according to the ***le of the article but the actual text does not even say a thing about Jones intending to come back to the Cape. What type of reportingis this! Or is Mr Mostert just trying to alert our recruiters to the fact that Jones (a quality centre) is supposedly afloat since we are sans centers. Anyway, here's a link to the article:
