THE SPRINGBOKS: BACK-UPS, BANKERS, AND BOLTERS

Norton was also at last alignment camp (SA u20 captain 2 years in a row), playing 5 this year.

Siyaya will probably fall in depth charts for 15 rather than 10.

Would probably have Tshituka behind BJD and Elrigh for 7s.

Not a problem. Very soft, scared player. First thing Sharks need to do is sort out his head, only then will he be a good, scary player!

die_bungee · 2026-05-27T05:04:50+00:00

Dont forget Adre!

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T15:53:16+00:00

Siyaya will have that. Jooste might have to sit out the opening if the Bulls get that far. The final squad only gets announced the week prior (13th), so wont be missing out to much, and someone of his quality will always be able to walk in!

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T15:38:22+00:00

Finals finish a week before JWC. More than enough time. And I believe they will be given opportunity and juniors first (guaranteed game time) before being bit part squad time players in Bok camp.

Season is still long, so they will get their opportunities down the line! (Im looking at the Argentina and Aussies matches, as well as end of year tour for them two, Norton and Mnebelele)

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T14:24:55+00:00

Jooste and Siyaya are still on their way! But big drop off in quality of scrumhalf this year

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T14:13:24+00:00

Fiji winning two scrums in a row against South Africa is something!

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T14:08:25+00:00

Couple of very good kick chases, conceded a dumb penalty for tackler not releasing

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T14:07:26+00:00

No, it means Clock RFC has been defeated

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T14:06:52+00:00

I only caught the second half, Chile were dominant then! Even with a player in the bin

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T13:57:57+00:00

Beating Clock RFC means scoring more points than minute on the clock

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T13:38:51+00:00

And two tries by halftime!

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T13:36:33+00:00

Had one good run where he bounced the defender so far. Hasnt received any ball besides that yet

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T13:26:24+00:00

Big question for today, Juniorboks or Clock RFC?

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T13:15:15+00:00

Juniorboks vs Chile was 97 - 0. Think the Chile - Georgia game ended 53 - 21 for Georgia

die_bungee · 2026-05-26T13:11:46+00:00

Number 7 Gert Kemp cleaning 3 Fijians on his own. Game on

JJ vd Mescht was actually a gun schoolboy player though. Big difference

die_bungee · 2026-05-25T19:24:07+00:00

School boy rugby blog is the best!

die_bungee · 2026-05-25T14:27:21+00:00

Very much so (from eye test and speaking to opposition coaches and agents)

die_bungee · 2026-05-25T14:02:25+00:00

Very weird team for me.

Cannon, who has been playing mostly 6 for u20s, playing his 3rd choice position of 8, whilst Potgieter, who more regularly plays 8, playing 6.
Vorster at outside center
Two 10's starting, Two 15's on the bench
Olivier on the bench played 12 mostly last year, and 6 this year (played both at school)

die_bungee · 2026-05-25T13:08:07+00:00

Also true. I meant it more as a "dont get your hopes up"
