Bok duo worry White

Springboks Fourie du Preez and JP Pietersen are doubtful to start against England after suffering injuries in last week’s Super 14 final.

National coach Jake White is already without Lions pair Andre Pretorius (buttocks strain) and Jaque Fourie (groin) for the opening Test of the season. Du Preez was initially expected to sit out the final because of multiple shoulder injuries, but played against the Sharks and is paying for it this week. Pietersen injured his hand and like Du Preez will undergo further assessment in the next few days.

Apart from these potential setbacks, White was happy with the standard of fitness apparent in his charges. He also told reporters in Bloemfontein the short preparation period would not limit their chances against the Poms on Saturday.

“This is the best condition and most impressive fitness levels the players have produced since I’ve taken charge of the team [in 2004],” he said.

“Most of these players have been playing together [both at provincial and national level] for some time now, so it should not be a problem.”

    Hougaard is ‘n kak loskakel, nes James gaan hy nie vir jou games in die WC wen nie.

  • 52.Drunkmonkey: Reply to this comment

    JC, guys!

    Come on, SABC news has new info from the bok camp that you guys don’t. What’s up with that?!

  • 57.Drunkmonkey: Reply to this comment

    oh ja ek weet meer as jy want Hougard die beste.

    Sien eers was daar CARTER wat super14 gewen het vir crusaders. Toe het hougard hulle gat geskop iets wat geen ander speeler regekry het nie. Toe skop hy die wen punte teen sharks. :)

    Dis feit Bulle het gewen en Hougard is SUper14 Player of the year

    Een of ander meeting wat Jake met die politici of pres raad gehad het en dat hulle “bankvas” agter hom is, terwyl hulle van niks weet nie…

    Jis Karen
    Ek fok sommer so bietjie met die dronk bobejane. As ek aan Mal Jakkie dink, dink ek ook aan ‘n dronk aap. :lol: ****** bly hy speel nie vir ons nie.
    Ek gaat nou eers die OBS uithaal. Het jy gesien hoe laag le die sneeu??

  • 61.Karen: Reply to this comment

    Jis dis soos “the blind leading the blind”. Wel bankvas kan baie dinge beteken – bankvas met ‘n ultimatum ook ja. Jis maar dis darem ‘n groot gemors hierdie – hopenlik kan die ouens net op rugby fokus en na die WC sal daar hels baie vd squad seker oorsee gaan speel.

  • 65.Karen: Reply to this comment

    Ek weet dan **** ek vandag ek moet warm klere inpak vir my Joburg trip die naweek – gedog ek kon wegkom van die koue maar nou ja. Ek sien die pas by Oudtshoorn ook gesluit oor die snuee. Het darem vir heater panels gaan koop en dit teen die mure gemount – help darem.

  • 68.Karen: Reply to this comment

    Dis die einste Karen Fanna – genoeg rooiwyn die naweek gehad – kwota is klaar vir die jaar :lol: Let wel die net koffie en nie aquardente in die koffie nie en ook nie iets anders nie.

  • 69.TOPCAT: Reply to this comment

    lets hope white doesn’t play steyn on the wing,the last two games for the sharks proved that the guy is limited on the wing.

  • 70.fanna: Reply to this comment

    Ek het my kwota ook gehad, maar die koue het my clock ge reset….LOL

  • 71.Karen: Reply to this comment

    Fanna moet nog vanaand leer na die kinders gaan slaap het so ek kan ongelukkig nie ‘n glas rooiwyn of OBS drink teen die koue nie – dis ek, die boeke en ‘n helse pot koffie.

  • 72.fanna: Reply to this comment

    Sterkte daar, moet net nooit laat iemand jou vertel die stormers het nie selfbeheersing nie… ;)

  • 73.Karen: Reply to this comment

    Ons Stormers is goeie mense man :mrgreen:

    At least het ons genoeg goeie rooiwyn tot ons beskikking – en die plase is ook sommer net ‘n katspoeggie ver. ‘n Klomp WP/Stormers supporters gaan hoekal die eerste game teen die Lions begin by ‘n wynplaas of twee of drie of vier voordat ons Nuweland toe gaan. Doen die wynroete na Nuweland.

  • 74.fanna: Reply to this comment

    Lol Ons het n wyn roete hier ook, ons vat n vyfmankan dan maak ons n draai by al ons pelle…. :)

  • 75.Karen: Reply to this comment

    :lol:

    Wel ek se eers cheers – gaan nou leer. Lekker aand vir jou en geniet jou wynroete.

  • 76.fanna: Reply to this comment

    Karen die kaap is mooi jong, ek was nog net 3 maal daar, maar ek glo dis die plek waar n mens moet wees. selfs die kak weer lyk goed in die kaap, en ja dan is daar die wyn,ens. Ek kom oorsp. van die baai, maar in Secunda vir die laaste 22 jaar. die enigste see wat ek in die transvaal kon kry….SeeCunda

  • 79.Karen: Reply to this comment

    :lol:

    Ja nee ek sou begin vd jaar opgetrek het Pretoria toe maar het daarteen besluit – sal nie die Kaap maklik verruil nie – ons weer in die winter is baie reen en nogmaals baie reen maar dis wat dit so lekker maak. Selfs Nuweland in die reen is sports – solank ‘n mens net die OBS kan in smokkel – en dis heel maklik glo my.

  • 83.fanna: Reply to this comment

    I think we should put two bok teams in the WC, we could say the one is from Oranje (boer bokke), but this year Ill bet that they will play in the final against each other, SA’s rugby is really tops this year!
