Verrassing is Green op 12

Ja dis 'n skuif om dop te hou, hy is lekker sterk en dit kan werk, blykbaar het hy ook al baie losskakel gespeel in sy jonger dae so om nader aan die aksie te speel as vleuel sal nie onbekend vir hom wees nie

Span opgedateer in die eerste pos

geen kommentaar? Al wat ek kan se dis 'n baie jong span en ek dink omtrent niemand sal die beginspan haal nie, dalk net Simelane

Lyk of die wedstryd geskuif is na 3 uur so 'n uur later as wat ons vroeer vertel is

Stokkies could never reach the same level after his injuries. It's very sad, but it does happen sometimes.

It happens actually quite often, for example Jaco Taute, etc.

Then some players keep getting a free ride, ala Jean De Villiers, after it happens, thanks mainly to their reputation.

True that...

Just surprized, last I heard he was moving to the Kings or being loaned to them and now he is out of the system all together... If I am not mistaken, he is still quite young, so just surprized that he has not been contracted by anybody? Cant believe that he has lost so much form that he cant even make the Kings's side.

Ek lees vandag Stokkies Hanekom speel nou klubrugby? Hoe is dit dat hy so in onguns verval het by ons?

Hy speel vir Roodepoort se eerste span. Alwyn Hollenbach is die afrigter daar.

Hy het al laas jaar klub rugby gespeel

It will be interesting to see who the fringe players are.

Die span vir die wedstryd word more (Donderdag) bekend gemaak

As ek reg kan onthou het ons die laaste 3 jaar maar swak gedoen in ons opwarmingswedsstryde, so ek sal nie veel in die uitlae van die wedstryde lees nie. Die Bul ondersteuners sal natuurlik dink hulle span het klaar die SA konferensie gewen as hulle ons saterdag klop.

daar was groot opgewondeheid te die bulle die leeus laas jaar gewen het in n warm up

Presies, so Whiteley, Orie en Dyantyi klink na die enigste regulars wat gespeel het.

Watched by among others Springbok captain Warren Whiteley – who’s back from his stint in Japan and fit to lead the team in Super Rugby this season – the Lions warmed up for the competition with a convincing 66-22 win against neighbours the Bulls at Ellis Park on Saturday.

Up front former Pumas flank Marnus Schoeman, who can also play at hooker, showed he will be a good addition to the Lions squad in the coming weeks.

None of the Lions’ regulars, like Andries Coetzee, Rohan Janse van Rensburg, Harold Vorster, Elton Jantjies, Ross Cronje, Franco Mostert, Andries Ferreira and Malcolm Marx were considered for the outing, with De Bruin opting to keep them fresh for the team’s opener against the Sharks.

Also, many of these players are only expected back in Joburg this coming week after wrapping up their commitments in Europe and Japan.

For the record, the Lions scored 10 tries through Willie Engelbrecht, Marvin Orie, Manny Rass, Aphiwe Dyantyi, Jo-Hanco de Villiers, Gianni Lombard, Tambwe, Tian Meyer, Louis van der Schyff and Reynolds.
