[QUOTE="big ginger 8, post: 777055, member: 53057"] That's nowhere near the same thing as being in an actual team training session and knowing exactly where he needs to be on every play. That sounds more to me like Schmidt is just getting a feel for him and where to put him in his long term plans rather than the immediate future. Also I'd hope Stander has attended a few sessions in Munster :p. Given everything we've seen and heard from Schmidt and Easterby I don't think they'd ever have Stander and SO'B starting in the same backrow. Simply because of the lineout. It's one of our main attacking weapons and having really only three jumpers just hurts you too much at international level. Of course Stander could well end up there but with things as they are now I fully expect Ruddock to be starting in the 6 jersey come the 6N. [/QUOTE]
