Committed to failure
12 Sep 12 09:47 by Maria Delport (Letgo) | 1 Comment
You know what the worst part is about Heyneke Meyer’s newest team selection? Not that he dropped Marcell Coetzee, arguably the best player across the 6 tests Meyer has coached so far. He has been selecting Coetzee out of position anyway and this team needed a genuine open side flanker and some balance from the start, so bringing in Francois Louw makes some sense. I am not absolutely pissed off with this selection because Meyer selected Louw or dropped Coetzee to the bench, even though I think there are few who can say the Boks had a better loose forward out of the 8 Heyneke Meyer has used so far (only two of which are unavailable). [...]
