Ukuthi iqembu lamaBhokobhoko ligcwele izimanga noma likhethe isikwati esifanele, konke lokho kuncike ekutheni wena ubona kanjani.
Empeleni, akukho lutho olungalungile ngeqembu. Bonke abadlali bafanelwe ithuba lokukhombisa abangakwenza eqenjeni ngaphandle kokuthi bazizwe benomthwalo omkhulu emahlombe.
Abangani nezitha bayavuma ukuthi uDuane Vermeulen ungumakadebona kunoma yiliphi iqembu kunoma iyiphi inkampani futhi noma kuphi emhlabeni, kodwa ugcine nini ukudlala uhlobo lomdlalo olumnika lelo gama?
Ubengumdlali ofanele kakhulu ukuhlabana ngendondo kumqhudelwano weNdebe yoMhlaba yebhola lombhoxo ngo-2019. Kodwa lokho kwenzeka eminyakeni emine edlule osekuyisikhathi eside kakhulu empilweni yomdlali webhola lombhoxo.
Bambalwa kakhulu abantu emhlabeni abahlonishwa ngaphezu kwale ndoda eneminyaka engu-37 ubudala yase-Nelspruit futhi akaze angazimiseli eqenjini lase-Ulster. Kodwa ingabe lesi siqhwaga esikhulumela phansi nesithulayo singaba ukaputeni wamaBhokobhoko enkundleni i-Loftus Versveld? Imibuzo miningi!
Okungenani ingxenye yabanye abadlali abakhethiwe bazophonselwa inselelo ukufakazela abangakwenza.
Umhlaba wonke webhola lombhoxo ubhekile ukubona ukuthi uManie Libbok uzokwakheka kanjani njenge-flyhalf emdlalweni ofana nalo. UCobus Reinach ubukeka njengozakwabo ofanele ukuba babambisane, kodwa ingabe inhlanganisela yabo izosebenza?
Ngabe “umakadebona” uWillie le Roux (33) usengakwazi ukuzimisela nokwenza okulindelekile? Waziwa njengomuntu ocabanga ngokushesha enkundleni futhi ungusomaqhinga ocabanga ngokushesha. Akakaze abe ngumdlali oyi-tackler, ingabe ungumuntu ofanele ukuba naye emuva?
ULukhanyo Am akazimisele ngendlela ayezimisele ngayo kuNdebe yoMhlaba. U-Am njengabo bonke abadlali ubebonakala ethintekile ngenxa yokubhuduzela kwama-Sharks nokuhlale kunzima ukukhumbula ukuthi usenkundleni. Ingabe uzokwazi ukusimela kulo mdlalo?
Ku-scrum, umugqa wangaphambili ukahle futhi abangaphambili bakhululekile. Ezandleni ezifanele, elakuleli linabadlali abafanele kakhulu phambili. Ingabe uMarvin Orie noJean Klein bazokwazi ukusebenzisana.
Siyazi ukuthi yini okumele siyilindele kuDeon Fourie futhi maningi amathuba okuthi aphumelele uma esesuka ebhentshini. Asinaso isiqiniseko ngo-Evan Roos, owaziwa ngokubuya abhede (bese ekwenza kube kubi kakhulu ngokuxolisa).
Bonke abazongena esikhundleni sabadlali abaphumayo, okuhlanganisa noRG Snyman ikakhulukazi uDamian Willemse bafuna ukuzibonakalisa.
