Bok and DHL Stormers forwards Evan Roos and Deon Fourie praised Rassie Erasmus’ decision to go with a 7-1 bench for Sunday’s clash against Scotland at Murrayfield.
Roos highlighted the impact potential of the forward-heavy bench, listing the powerful options Erasmus has selected. “Look at who is on the Bok bench – players like Malcolm Marx, RG Snyman, Siya Kolisi, Pieter-Steph du Toit, Jasper Wiese, and Grant Williams. “Grant can play scrumhalf and wing; Kwagga can go to wing as a loose forward if needed; even Pieter-Steph can go to the wing. The Boks are blessed and spoiled to have a player like RG and the set of loose forwards,” he concluded.
