    I fear that we have more injuries in the backs and none of the others coming back as yet.... when Brache went off on the weekend it did not look good. Who is left? Dellit is just not working and with Morahan and DHP out as well, we are light on out wide. Suggestions??

    Bit tough on Gus/Benny. Apart from the Stormers result, our back three have been rock solid. Maybe bring Stander on a bit earlier this week. While Coleman's work rate at the breakdown has been impressive, we've missed Steenkamp's experience in the lineout.

    OK, so steenkamp in isn't too hard to manage, either Coleman or Wykes are OK to sit the bench. I wouldn't mind trying Wykesey on the pine actually. He's played long minutes and put a lot in recently, so some recovery time wouldn't hurt and it will clarify whether Coleman has been the issue at lineout time (which is hard to believe given the size of the lad) Wykesey is the caller ATM, a duty which Steenkamp can fulfil and they won't lose too much around the field.

    Who do we leave out for Stander....the obvious answer is Gus, but IMHO benching Gus (or any other backrower) is a travesty! Brynard is being held out of the team because you can't justly bench any one of them. Perhaps one of them is carrying a niggle (wouldn't be a surprise at all) and could do with a half game, but that would be the only fair way of making it happen.

    I thought that Steenkamp got injured in the Tahs game. He hasnt had a run on game since IIRC.

    Perhaps Foley is trying to manage his injury/recovery as best he can whilst still making Steenkamp available from the Bench as required.
