Agree with most of your points. Upfront we have struggled, but the with exception of the Bulls game, the young pack has been competitive. Hopefully they will harden and gain experience. Dont think we have the finances to attract big name experienced players. Since the departure of Fav, we have not had a no9 who looked close to being international class, and it does not look like we are interested in developing one. Reynolds has aspects on his game to work on, but seems one of the few inside backs with the ability to breach the defense. Midfield has been a big problem area this season. Simelane has great attacking flair as a ouside back, but he certainly is no 13. I would seriously consider swapping Pienaar and Simelane. No one has put his hand up for Super Rugby for no12 jumper. Our outside backs, especially Green, have been great on attack. Not sure how they will do on defense and under high ball against good opposition. Spot on regarding the coaching

I agree that we need some players in certain positions. To me the coaching team doesn't seem frail.
We are playing/using the same processes we have been using the past 4 - 5 years, however we have lost almost our whole player personnel. Facts are: 1. Our pack isn't dominating - since 2015 we have lost 4 first choice props, two hookers, 3 starting locks, 4 loose forwards that each can make the starting XV. - Not the coaching team's fault. 2. Our backline sometimes looks flat footed and without plan - Because the forwards don't dominate as they use to, it flows over to our backline play - Not the coaching team's fault. 3. We concede too many tries - maybe part of this can be blamed on the coaching team, but if players keep losing the ball in contact, throw intercept passes, or are not sticking to the defensive structures, you can't blame the coaching team, you have to blame the players. The difference between now and when Ackers started to rebuild the team, is that he had the luxury of not being involved in SR, which gave us the chance to develop our brand of rugby and fine tune it against teams that weren't as good as the SR franchises, or CC teams without their boks. The reality is that you need experienced players in certain positions, which we don't currently have. A prop only usually starts to reach maturity from about 27. Exept for Jacobie, our oldest prop is 24. Our most experienced lock is Orie at 26. If this team (+ the injured players) can stay together for 3 years, and we can sign one or two key players, we will again be a force in SR. Edited by valie - 21-Aug-2019 at 9:10pm |

Valie, dit voel of ek en jy altyd stry.. Ek verstaan wat jy probeer se, maar stem nie heeltemal saam nie. 1. Ja ons het 'n helse klomp top spelers verloor. Dit gaan natuurlik die span seermaak. MAAR in vandag se tyd is dit 'n jaarlikse realiteit, en ons is nie die enigste span met wie dit gebeur nie. Mits miskien die NZ spanne wat redelik konstant dieselfde bly. Om teen 'n ander SA span te gaan staan en verloor wat net soveel ontwrigting gehad het pla my. 2. Dis waar wat jy se. Maar mens kannie altyd die forwards blameer as die agterlyn swak doen nie. Ek dink 'n groot deel van die probleem le by ons 9's wat te stadig is en swak diens lewer. 3. Driee met omkeer besit is een ding. Maar dis nie al wanneer ons driee afstaan nie.. Spesifiek dink ek aan Curwin Bosch wat n paar keer die bal ontvang het vanaf 'n skop en dwarsdeur ons span gehardloop het. Sekerlik wanneer iemand skop weet elke ou op die veld om 'n lyn te vorm en die klein bliksem te tackle!!?? Oor die algemeen le ek die blaam vir ons swak verdediging voor die afrigters se deur. "The difference between now and when Ackers started to rebuild the team, is that he had the luxury of not being involved in SR, which gave us the chance to develop our brand of rugby and fine tune it against teams that weren't as good as the SR franchises, or CC teams without their boks." - daarteenoor het Swys die luxury gehad om die helfde van Ackers se wenspan te erf, plus hy was deel van die hele span herlewing so weet presies wat om te doen. Hy het wel sy eerste seisoen die finaal gehaal, maar dit was afdraende al die pad van daar af.. "If this team (+ the injured players) can stay together for 3 years, and we can sign one or two key players, we will again be a force in SR." - Dalk is ek pessimisties maar ek dink nie enige SA span sal ooit weer dieselfde span vir meer as 'n jaar of 2 hou nie. Jonger spelers gebruik super rugby om raakgesien te word, en vat dan die eerste grootste aanbod oorsee. Iemand soos Tyrone Green dink ek gaan nie lank te wag vir die aanbiedinge om in te stroom nie.. Ek stem saam oor die ervaring wat ons kort. Daarom dink ek die Bulls het 'n goeie model om te volg deur 2-3 ervare ouens van oorsee af terug te lok. Al is dit net vir 1 seisoen!

Weet nie van Matthews nie, maar Jacobie wat begin is n goeie besluit. Marnus het ons broodnodig om hulle bal stadig te maak.

12 is 'n vreeslike belangrike speler in enige agterlyn, as hy kleitrap gaan 13, 14, 11 en 15 net balle kry as die ander spanskop....LOL!

Ons het ook vreeslik gesukkel in die lynstane, en dit was amper alles met balle wat agter gegooi was, maw op die loosies en nie op die slotte nie

Sien die gereelde Griekwas loskop en skrumskakel speel nie die naweek nie. Twees van hulle beter spelers. Behoort ons 'n kans te gee.

Ek kyk so na die oefening fotos van die Leeus op facebook en kan nie help om te dink dit sou beter gewees het as hulle liewer elke dag 12 uur op een of ander skool se B rugby veld wat vol gate en dubbeltjies is geoefen het nie, n saterdag midag 15h00 in Kimerley is n harde afspraak .... jy speel soveel teen die elemente daar as wat jy teen n klomp harde manne speel.... hou dit liewer dop op die kassie met n koue een in die hand .
