The ideal traditional Bok team
November 20, 2012 in Uncategorized
With so many people defending the so-called “traditional” Bok game plan of forward driven, bash it up rugby I think it’s time for Heyneke Meyer to select a team that should be able to do this to perfection.
The Boks’ one dimensional ball crashing approach reminds me of the Little Red Riding Hood joke
LRRH: “My, what big teeth you have, Granny”
Wolfie/Grandma: “The better to EAT you with!”
LRRH: “Eat, eat, eat. Doesn’t anyone want to RUCK anymore?”
Possible team:
15 Zane Kirchner
14 Pierre Spies
13 Marcell Coetzee
12 Brok Harris
11 Andries Bekker
10 Morne Steyn
9 Ruan Pienaar
8 Duane Vermeulen
7 Willem Alberts
6 Francois Louw
5 Eben Etzebeth
4 Flip van der Merwe
3 Jannie du Plessis
2 Bismarck du Plessis
1 Beast Mtawarira
16 Adriaan Strauss
17 Coenie Oosthuizen
18 Pat Cilliers
19 Rynhardt Elstadt
20 Siya Kolisi
21 Ryan Kankowski
22 Josh Strauss
23 Wynand Olivier

The only selection I am confused about here is at 23?

Wynand? he is also a good ball crasher.
Greg said on November 21, 2012
Now you are just dreaming, Wynand will never crash with ball in hand, he would just mess up his carefully coiffured hair!

Play Bekker at 2 ….. he could just hand Etsebeth the ball

How could you leave out Chilli? Surely he is the best cover at midfield?

He he he he he he @ general , Ja so true Brock is more an attacking FH he would be best suited for the 12 Channel ” A great substitute ” For JDV since they play the same type of game under HM. Get the Ball and Run straight/over the oposition.

Personally I would have selected Brok at 10 it has always been his best position. But I guess HM would not like the fact that Harris is more of an attacking FH than a kicking one?
Baylion said on November 21, 2012
Thought about it Generaal but we need the two kickers in Morne and Zane

He he he he Baylion you funny. At least I see the sarcasm in your blog. Very Funny, but think about it, so true. Who need centres, wings and Fullbacks when they not even used. Or hardly get any ball. Ja give brock Harris a chance in the mid lokl he might see more of the ball than De Jongh did. Unbelievable u a centre and you only touch the ball once. Dont worry Bay my bru I understand what you trying to say here. Funny dude….

Thanks. Sheriffff gets upset as soon as he doesn’t see Lambie’s name in a squad

Pierre Spies Wing? Andries Bekker wing? Are you drunk?
The Dutchman said on November 21, 2012
But you like the idea of Brok Harris and Marcell Coetzee at Centre? Not the brightest tool in the chest…

This is by far the lamest thing I’ve read in weeks. Don’t give up the day job mate, assuming of course that you even have one.
