[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 979071, member: 39190"] Shickerling and Wiese both are very good. Wiese might have a higher ceiling IMO. He is also a bit younger and hasn't really featured as much as Shickerling though both have been involved with us for a while now but probably him. Will be interesting to see how the Stormers use PSDT. I expect we'll stick with blindside though TBF I agree with you to some extent that PSDT will be better at lock for us at least in the more open SR. Test rugby is another matter but we have depth aplenty at the loose forwad so maybe PSDT can play at lock for a spell for us. I'm actually glad you signed Notshe then. he was our version of Pierre Spies. A bit of a race horse and looks good if you are already winning but I'm not sure how much he contributes to actually winning. Kolisi, PSDT, Coetzee, young JDT, Van Dyk, Van Rhyn and Augustus. We'll struggle to give everyone game time. Probably we'll rest Kolisi and PSDT a lot. Notshe is no loss. I quite like Ackermann as a blindside/8 but that is beside the point. There are sooo many players ahead of him in the pecking order and rightly so. PSDT, both Du Preez twins, Vermeulen will stick around for the B&I Lions, young guys coming through.. yeah, Ackermann probably doesn't form part of the equation. [/QUOTE]
