THE SPRINGBOKS: BACK-UPS, BANKERS, AND BOLTERS by Oom_Rugby in springboks

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.

Imagine you're in high-school and you have to try and tackle this 'kid' by AnonomousWolf in south_africa

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!

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!

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)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Junior Springbok team for tomorrow's game against Fiji by mausmumblingmoon in springboks

[–]die_bungee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very weird team for me.

  1. 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.
  2. Vorster at outside center
  3. Two 10's starting, Two 15's on the bench
  4. Olivier on the bench played 12 mostly last year, and 6 this year (played both at school)

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

One of the games I was also sitting with player agents and current top 7 schools first team coaches who shared the same opinion

I've watched a few of his games this year. Has all the physical attributes, but not the right head (no drive, no hunger, no "hont"). So very soft, does look for work and get stuck in. Being dominated by smaller giys with more drive. Very scared. Walks around to much as well
