After initially indicating that the Springboks would not call on replacements from SA, following the injury of Andries Bekker and J P Pietersen, Bokke management has decided to call on Johan Muller to strenghten the Bokke squad for their remaining two matches on the Tri-Nations Tour.
With Danie Rossouw having had injury worries and with slight niggles to the knees of Bakkies Botha, it makes sense to call on a decent lock as cover down under. Questions must be asked however whether Johan Muller was the suitable candidate for the job.
Johan has ample Bokke experience but David de Villiers or Anton van Zyl might have proven better choices, whilst at the same time getting them used to the Bokke setup.
@bdb – stem saam die comment, te veel ouens word getraaai.
2. Ek het gister weer na die Bokke se driiee gekyk. Wat opmerklik is is die rol wat die kombinasie van die drie hoofbesluitnemers, Spies, du Preez en Steyn, speel. Baie bloggers besef nie dat hierdie drie as ‘n kombinasie tans by verre die beste in die wereld is nie. En hulle is almal Bulle. Die verlies van hierdie drie sal enige span jare terug sit.
Wat ook opmerklik is in die huidige CC span is dat daar tot dusver nie ‘n soortgelyke kombinasie gevestig is nie. In hierdie drie posisies was daar tot dusver te veel veranderinge, ten spyte van talent wat beskikbaar is.

Nou gaan ek eers bietjie slaap, night all.
@carol – Huh?
OK folks, that’s me for the night !
Goeie nag, slaap sag !
@Ed_the_Lion –
I wouldn’t fret too much about anything that oke says.
He used to ban me to get my attention!
Retard.
He thinks using the ‘f’ word and blasphemous language is being leftist, radical and ‘withit’.
Well, maybe it is being ‘withit’ over there at Voldy’s nowadays.
Bur who cares, as GBS says.
Let them be.
They are on their own now.
@grootblousmile –
Seems I missed all the fun last night!
Bloggers and old friends from Atlanta across County Cork to Kuwait!
Good stuff.
Things are going jolly, smooth and peaceful here at RT Tavern (as Carol calls it)….the ‘Home of Rugby Gurus’.
PisMier and Tight Head are sure to make mayor contributions, and it was great to have them join our site.
I have also had a few mails from guys like WPforever and Weskusgermaan inquiring about RT, they will be over later today.
Cheers all, see you at the games.
Only Bot and me here, it seems…..
Weepeeforeva…you are approved, blog away!
How are the Scandinavian girls treating you?
Morning Koos/Manly
Seems we missed a good ol’ get together last night, all the ‘goodfellas and gals’ were here on RT.

371 @Manlybok Sheesh, no naughty pictures I hope! Internet was down yesterday and only fixed this morning…

@Koos -I am resigned to blogging at game time mostly, but I do read the blog here and there during the week.
Just to enjoy the banter and to see my old friends again.
