Dyantyi and Whiteley are recovering from injuries‚ utility player Willemse returned to action for Western Province against the Griquas at the weekend in the Currie Cup, while Coetzee was replaced early in the 24-18 win against Argentina. “And we will go and look at our injuries and combinations‚ he is one of those who is such a great guy and versatile and you always know what you'll get from him.
“We really fast-tracked him in a big way from 15 minutes of Currie Cup rugby to a Test match because we know what we have in him. “If we get an injury‚ we will have to go that route because it makes sense. But at this stage it is a timing thing and there are others who are in the same boat.”
