[QUOTE="Seaton, post: 322060, member: 64443"] Juan Smith has been given leave (due to his fathers death, RIP) Victor Matfield will start, as captain. Bandise Maku has joined the squad, meaning Chiliboy will start Rossouw has been given the week off, so he will not play. Pat Lambie is with the u20 squad in Argentina, and it would be unwise to take him away just to make the bench Schalk Brits has not been called up, and therefore is unlikely to be involved. PDV said he would like to further develop the partnership between Januarie and Steyn, meaning that James and de Villiers will probably be the centers. Bakkies Botha is back in the mix, and Andries is injured (either that or his he is having wife troubles) Basically PDV said he will field a strong side against Italy, and is looking at combinations as opposed to players, this was said in an interview today. With that interview in mind, this is the likely team 1. Steenkamp 2. Chiliboy 3. Jannie/ Other 4. Bakkies 5. Flippies/Hargreaves 6. Louw 7. Potgeiter 8. Spies 9. Januarie 10. Steyn 11. Habana 12. James 13. de Villiers (or James is 13) 14 Aplon 15 Kirchner 16. Maku 17. Jannie/ Other 18. Hargreaves/ Flip 19. Deysel/ Kankowski 20. (we dont know if he will go with a 4-3 or 5-2 split) 21. Pienaar 22. Basson [/QUOTE]
