Uma kuwukuthu uRassie Erasmus noJacques Nienaber badlala umdlalo wokukhohlisa ngokuqinisekile isu labo lisebenza kahle kakhulu!
Siphelelwa yisikhathi sokuthi amaBhokobhoko abe yimbumba.
Ngemuva kokudlala kabi kwamaBhokobhoko e-Ellis Park ngesonto eledlule bekucatshangwa ukuthi mhlawumbe abaphathi bazogcina bekhombise izinhloso zabo zangempela baphinde bathumele iqembu elingcono kakhulu e-Buenos Aires. Kodwa bekungeke kube njalo.
Sifisela uBongi Mbonambi inhlahla ngokuthola ijezi likakaputeni kodwa amathuba akhe okuba ukaputeni wamaBhokobhoko uma kusemqoka (njengakwiNdebe yoMhlaba) awathembisi. Okungcono kakhulu ukuthi kuyisenzo esingokomfanekiso ukugubha umdlalo wakhe wesi-50. Kodwa lokho akuyiwini imidlalo.
Okungenani kusenokuthile okusazofundwa kuma-halfbacks uCobus Reinach noManie Libbok. UHerschel Jantjies naye kufanele anikwe ithuba kanti uLukhanyo Am ukhombise izimpawu zokubuyela efomini ngakho kufanele aye e-Argentina.
Akukakaqinisekiswa ngoDamian Willemse ngakho-ke ukudlala kwakhe kuzojabulisa futhi kungase kube nomthelela ekuqokweni kwakhe kwiNdebe yoMhlaba.
Kuwusuku olukhulu ku-Andre Esterhuizen. Umdlalo omuhle (esimweni esinzima uma idlala namaPumas) ungasho lukhulu emathubeni akhe kwiNdebe yoMhlaba.
Kodwa yini okusamele ifundwe ngoThomas du Toit, uTrevor Nyakane noma uJoseph Dweba? Akubona
abaqeqeshi kuphela kodwa wonke umuntu uyazi ukuthi bazokwenza kanjani.
Kuzokwenza muphi umehluko uma uDeon Fourie, u-Evan Roos noma uJasper Wiese bengenzi umehluko ngokuphelele?
Futhi uma kufika lapho umphumela womdlalo uzowenza muphi umehluko?
Ukuhlanganisa iqembu lesikhashana elifana naleli kusho ukuthi umphumela ngeke usho lutho kumaBhokobhoko – noma engawina.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, kuma-Pumas ingcindezi inkulu kakhulu. Uma bewina lo mdlalo kuhle lokho ngoba akukhona nje ukusebenza. Uma behlulwa uMichael Cheika neqembu lakhe bazoba nomsebenzi onzima kunalona abanawo manje.
I-Argentina inedumela lokudlala kahle kodwa kuhle kuphela uma iwina.
KumaBhokobhoko “ukunika abanye abadlali ithuba” njengokusho kwabaphathi akumele kwenzeke uma izinto sezibheda.
Abalandeli bebenethemba lokuthi iqembu lamaBhokobhoko elinamandla lizothatha uhambo oluya e-Buenos Aires liphinde libhekane nama-Pumas emhlabeni wawo.
Babona sengathi bekuyithuba lokuthi amaBhokobhoko enze kahle kakhulu ngendlela ama-All Blacks enza ngayo kuyo yonke imidlalo ye-Rugby Championship. Kungenzeka ukuthi abalandeli baqinisile.
