What Player will we be all be Talking about in Years Time

[Zed]

Francois Hougaard (Bulls) - for making Bok rugby exciting for the neutral
Pat Lambie (Sharks) - to settle as 1st choice 15
Bismarck du Plessis (Sharks) - to show why he is undoubtably the world's premier hooker

As for new players.. well, these players have already had 5 rounds of Super rugby and have shown to different extents why Saffa's rated them beforehand so they aren't totally unknown but i would say, in order, -

Johan Goosen (Cheetahs) - playing off the bench at 10 and nailing it
Eben Etzebeth (Stormers) - getting gametime in the 3rd June test (the dead rubber after SA secured the series win )

Also wouldn't be surprised to see any of these players make a sucessful step up-

Jacques Potgieter (Bulls)
CJ Stander (Bulls)
Elton Jantjies (Lions) if he can regain form after coming back from injury
Jaco Taute (Lions) as back-up to Lambie
Marcell Coetzee (Sharks)
Siya Kolisi (Stormers)
Rynhardt Elstadt (Stormers)
Steven Kitshoff (Stormers)
Robert Ebersohn (Cheetahs)

Also, I think whoever the Bok captain will be will be somewhat... news-worthy.

I saw some footage of some young SA player - Timo Swielby (?) he looked pretty awesome. Not sure where he is now? Did he end up playing S15?

Anthony Watson.

For England:

Christian Wade (if he recovers form after injury...)

One point to each of you!

Timo Swiel won the Currie Cup U21 with Western Province, and has now signed with the Sharks for 2014.

Cool thanks. Looking forward to seeing him play.

Same here! He has played fullback and standoff, so where he will play is up in the air. We have Lambie as the incumbent standoff, along with Fred Zeilinga and now Robert du Preez and Jean Luc du Plessis coming up. Hansie Graaff can also cover standoff. If he wants to focus on fullback, he only really has SP Marais to compete with, and possibly Sean Robinson.
