This feels like a reckoning. You know how badly Rassie wants this. Surfboard Jesus needs to put his dick on the table.
New move in the breakdance repertoire.

Not a bad plan to bring a fresh Holland on in the second half.

I was surprised at first but after giving it more thought it’s probably to add some grunt to that bench with patty unavailable

I think it’s a combination of Patty being unavailable and Holland’s game time to date. With Vaa’i, who is an 80 minute player we have options to see how the game is going and how we manage substitutions.

If the backs play poorly again it's time for a serious look in the mirror.
We can't just meander through 2025 if things aren't working. -
@ACT-Crusader strongest available scrummaging locks starting.

@W32 not with Faf looking fit as a fiddle.
Power and grace with a little verve thrown in.
Close, but not enough hair product.

So is that Cortez and is Wayne Smith replacing him?

@pakman Must be geo-blocked as it isn't behind a paywall.
Cheers @Bovidae . I imagine that will be within two of actual team.
Please no ALB or Christie. both are well past it.

We’re screwed:
Did he say if he’d pick any Boks in a combined 15 ?
He didn’t. But I will go as far as saying, I wouldn’t select one Springbok, Puma or Wallaby in a combined RC XV.
Puma captain and former Crusader might make the bench….

I think Christie is a necessity given where we are at with halfbacks, but they can easily select Quinn for the bench back spot.
