    @sidbarret Stormers are in great form.

    As a Boishaaier you,d know that Moerat will be a future Bok captain.

    Gelant & Roos should be there.

    Mid week matches for SA XV and ABs XV will be good for both our squads

    The Wales teams struggled in the URC. Our lot shouldn't underestimate them. There are a lot of experience in that squad.

    @Machpants this is the squad till end of year. Our season ends next week, so they need a big squad. There can be SA A matches aswell.

    Good to see some new faces.
