that we have the players to give the AB's and the Wallabies a good old fashioned snotklap. Preparation for the next WC should have already started but having failed to do so Meyer has another golden opportunity to start preparing for the next WC  by making the right selections for the upcoming series. Superduds like Spies, Kirchner, Kruger and Olivier should be axed. I'm still a bit tentative about  the choice of Flyhalf but it's obvious that Morne Steyn is on the slide and if he's going to be replaced it should be sooner rather than later. He simply can't be the choice to take the Boks to the next WC. Our biggest problem though is Meyer, his head is stuck firmly up a bulls arse and until such time that he realises the bigger picture the Boks are doomed to failure.

I a,m not so sure about Meyer being stuck on Bulls players - I think he is more stuck on certain individuals from the Bulls team.   Problem is - although those players under-performed in the Super 15 and the test series against the POMS - he has apparently the idrea that they are the keys to his game plan - whatever that may be.   Fronm what he said and from the fact that Morne Steyn is only kicking in training - the answer seems to be obvious.   Personally I do not hink it is an advisable strategy that can work - we will see about that one over the next two months.
