    122 @ grootblousmile:
    Oh dear but I suppose its nit picking from me to highlight this when they are scoring tries for fun, but in tight games these things (missed kicks) can come back to hurt you.

    USA not the team to measure yourself against… they knew very little about tackling, that is for sure.

    But I must say, there some serious speed in some of the Bokke backline okes!

    Tries Savea (0), Collins (3, 68), Fuatai (31, 60), Visinia (37), Dam (45), Scrafton (54), Manihera (78)

    See Savea scored his try on the zero minute mark, wonder how many seconds passed before it was scored

    133 @ superBul:
    Yes superBul this is what my concern is then as so much has been made of Pollard and next year he (or whichever other flyhalf gets the inside track) will have to step up at the Bulls to fill Morne Steyn’s boots. It was interesting for me to see Tuks play Willie du Plessis at flyhalf with Pollard at centre, seeing this team made me wonder if they did this in consultation or even on request of Dawie Theron.

    @ Bullscot:
    Maybe we will see a Bulls team next year that wont rely on the boot of their number 10, we might get these great backs we bought running riot. Wishful thinking? Not really, i see a great thing coming.
    The Stormers will have to teach their team from scratch how to play with ball in hand, remember practice makes perfect, exciting times await us.
    Be brave

    Sewes-sensasie se ouers, Vrystaat bars van trots

    WELKOM. – Die Blitsbok-sensasie Seabelo Senatla (20) se ouers was die naweek voor die televisiestel vasgenael.

    Wanneer hy ’n drie gedruk het, het sy pa, Bery, gedans en gesing, terwyl sy ma, Patricia, van trots en blydskap gehuil het.

    Bery, ’n kolonel in die speurdiens van die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens, het gesê sy foon het onophoudelik gelui. “Mense wat ek nie eens ken nie het ons gelukgewens. Meer as tien was boere. Ek weet nou ons as gesin sal in ons spoor moet trap. Ons kan Seabelo nie in die skande steek nie.” Paul Treu, afrigter van die Blitsbokke, het Bery ook gebel. Sy woorde aan die trotse pa was: “Dankie dat julle my vertrou om na julle seun kyk.”

    Senatla, wat die afgelope naweek ses drieë vir die Blitsbokke gedruk het, is saam met Paul Delport deur gesaghebbendes op die toernooi vir die Dream Team gekies. Dit is die tweede keer dat dié eer Senatla te beurt val.

    Hy het rugbykommentators gaande gehad met sy krag en spoed. Hy word beskou as een van die vinnigste sewes-spelers ter wêreld. Hy, Chris Dry, Philip Snyman en Jamba Ulengo was die vier Vrystaters wat Sondag in Glasgow in die eindstryd van die Internasionale Rugbyraad (IRR) se sewestoernooi die Blitse gehelp het om die All Blacks 28-21 te klop.

    Voor sy sukses in sewesrugby het Senatla verlede jaar vleuel vir die Vrystaatse o.19-span gespeel. En daar is nou sprake dat die Vrystaat-Cheetahs gaan probeer om met Treu se goedkeuring sy dienste vir die Curriebeker-reeks te bekom, wanneer die Blitse gewoonlik ’n blaaskans kry. “Dit is wonderlik om ’n seun te hê wat Suid-Afrika verteenwoordig,” het sy trotse pa gesê. Senatla se droom is om ’n volwaardige vyftienman-Springbok te word. Sy visier is ook op die Olimpiese Spele in 2016.

    Senatla en Justin Geduldt meld hulle dié week ook aan vir die oefenkamp van die Suid-Afrikaanse o.20-span. Die Jong Bokkies neem later vanjaar aan die wêreldkampioenskap in Frankryk deel. Hulle sal gevolglik nie vir die sewestoernooi in Engeland en die wêreldtoernooi in Rusland beskikbaar wees nie. Senatla het ook reeds vir die Griffons se o.19-span vleuel gespeel.

    In 2012 het hy vir die Vrystaatse o.19- én o.21-span gespeel en was met sewe drieë een van die voorste driedrukkers in die nasionale o.19-liga. Senatla was in Desember ’n uitblinker vir die Samurai-span wat die Premierliga-sewestoernooi in George gewen het en is toe deur Treu nader getrek. “Paul het aanvanklik gesê dit sal ’n jaar neem om Seabelo tot sy reg te laat kom, maar ná drie maande het hy reeds sy stempel afgedruk,” het Bery gesê.

    Sy ma was op haar dae ’n kranige netbalspeler. Sy pa het ’n rekord in die 100 m opgestel.

    Senatla se suster, Pulane (25), is ’n chemiese ingenieur. Sy werk vir Eskom in Witbank, terwyl sy broer, Katleho (16), ’n leerling aan die Hoërskool Riebeeckstad is. Katleho hou meer van sing as sport.

    Still under 17 and still in matric, he soon took giant strides in that direction by blitzing the 100m in 10.6secs.

    “I loved running. I watched Marion Jones running on TV,” the 19-year-old recalls.

    Senatla’s speed soon got him noticed and a call from Jacques Juries, the coach at the Harmony Sports Academy, was the encouragement he needed to start playing rugby seriously.

    “I thought I was going to go to CUT (Central University of Technology) in Welkom but in 2011 I joined the Academy. Last year CUT in Bloemfontein offered me a sponsorship so I went there. I got called up by the Cheetahs and played Under-19 and Under-21,” he says.

    Then national Sevens coach Paul Treu came knocking with the offer of a two-year contract. Naturally the speedster jumped.

    “You can just express yourself so much more when you are playing Sevens,” he says.

    On his future goals he says: I would really like to play in the Olympics in 2016.”

    @ superBul:
    Its a shame the Bulls don’t have poaching money left to buy themselves a forward pack……

  • 146

    145 @ Bliksem:
    Let’s count the current Springboks in the Bulls pack… Spies, Flip, Juandre (going to France), Arno, Chiliboy – that is 5
    Now let’s count players who have played for the Bokke in the past who are not current Bokke…. Jacques Potgieter (going overseas), Dewald Potgieter, Deon Stegann, Werner Kruger & Dean Greyling (useless) – that is another 5.
    So Bulls have 10 Bokke in their pack alone of which 2 are going overseas and 1 is useless, so it leaves 7… which is more than WP / Stormers have in total.
    Now go look at the Bulls champion Under 21 side as well as the Bokkies Under 20 side and go count the Bulls forwards…

    Now let’s do exactly the same at WP / Stormers, current Bokke in the pack… Eben, Siya – that is 2
    Now let’s count players who have played for the Bokke in the past who are not current Bokke…. Duane Vermeulen (longer term injury), Andries Bekker (going to Japan), Schalk Burger (has not played for 2 years), Tiaan Liebenberg – that is another 4.
    So WP / Stormers have 6 Bokke in the pack in total of which 3 are has-beens / crocked.
    Now go count the Under 20 WP forwards in the Bokkies… hehehe

    It’s a pity the Stormers / WP don’t have money left to purchase better supporters than you…

    Oh, but don’t let facts spoil a great illusion for you, Chop!
