The tail of woe that is the senior career of promising WP prop JC Kritzinger continues.
Kritzinger, who has missed the bulk of the last three seasons as the result of successive knee injuries, went over on his ankle in training and has had to be withdrawn from the bench for his side’s Currie Cup game against the Sharks on Saturday.
Kritzinger was one of two props on the bench and with Province suffering from a serious shortage amongst their lock and loose forward ranks, it remains to be seen who they will opt to bring into the squad as cover. It’s unlikely that yet another prop will be called up, but their simply aren’t any quality utility forwards left either, with under 21 captain Wilhelm van der Sluys already co-opted into the Currie Cup group as a last resort.
Allister Coetzee will confirm his rejigged bench later today.

@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 2) : what is this oke made of? Tissue paper soaked in HCl?
@robdylan (Comment 3) : Worse than Andre Pretorious
@Clayton(PJLD) (Comment 4) : Clayton – what’s all this shit about Toetie saying WP are “building for 2013″?
You guys have had like NO Bok callups… surely the goal must be to win CC?
Province have confirmed Yaya Hartzenberg as the replacement for Kritzinger
Kritzinger out for 3 months.
@robdylan (Comment 5) : Thats toeties excuse in advance for not doing well in the CC
@sharks_lover (Comment 8) : Toetie’s bosses should start to demand more trophies from him… he gets off very lightly.
Hell i can even recall seeing this oke play??
@robdylan (Comment 9) :
this is true, i mean Plum has his team win a CC and the Next year some supporters are calling for his head
@sharks_lover (Comment 11) : Plum has been playing the next game to save his arse for about the last 4 seasons on the trot. I wonder what Toetie would do with the same sort of pressure on him.
@robdylan (Comment 12) :
true,
nice way to get paid season in and season out
@robdylan (Comment 12) : yeah but AC hasn’t posted super rugby finishes of 6th, 9th, 6th and 6th since he took over from rassie. plum deserves his strife.
@Megatron (Comment 15) : That should read 6th, 9th, 6th, 6th, *2nd*…
@Culling Song (Comment 16) : amen
