May be laking some tall timber in the middle of the lineout, but with Ribeye at TH lock they will have plenty of go forward.

Room for an upset.

They aren’t taking this game serious, they’ve selected a 5/3 bench…..

See Robbie Dean's is coaching this team.

Good way to scout some talent for his Panasonic Wild Knights

You know the Boks are some team when he is consistently named at 23 or not at all.

He'd walk into any other team in the world at 12.

Or Hoss to 12, PUJ to 13 and JRK to 15!

@Nepia

Well it's coached by two Cantabs

Be interesting to see how Leicester F goes against Kriel and de Allende

@pakman They should have listed Sotutu at 23 instead of Boshier to really play on that as a mind game

@brodean said in Springboks v Barbarians:

Frizell at 8 over Sotutu. Ffs.

Well he does have Carl Hayman proportions (from the book of Blackdragon).

Jesse Kriel will lead the Springboks against the Barbarians at Cape Town Stadium on Saturday after regular captain Siya Kolisi was ruled out of the match due to a ‘niggle’.

Marco van Staden has been drafted straight into the starting line-up as a replacement for Kolisi

The Barbarians have a very good shot at winning this game

Imagine the Fern if Sotutu comes on and plays a blinder....

Jacomb still hurting from last week it seems....2 cold drops already.

Jamine out of position there
