Dweba and Vermeulen were substituted in the first half as the much-improved All Blacks powered to a bonus-point 35-23 victory over the world champions, the visitors having led 15-0 inside 20 minutes of the Rugby Championship clash at Ellis Park.
There was plenty said in the build up of the decision to start Dweba ahead of Malcolm Marx when Bongi Mbonambi was forced to withdraw to a knee injury. Marx was Man of the Match after the Boks thumped the All Blacks in Nelspruit a week earlier, while Dweba was starting just his second match since mid-June.
As there was no out-and-out wing replacement, Willie le Roux came on at fullback and there was a backline reshuffle to accommodate him, Damian Willemse shifting to inside centre, Damian de Allende to outside and Lukhanyo Am to wing.“We take players off early if they have done their job, or if they no longer do it,” Nienaber said. “Because we have six forwards on the bench, we can make those early substitutes. As soon as a player does not give everything, he is replaced.
No chance he will win us a world cup.
I'm no coach, I do not understand how you would want a player to find form against the All Blacks, these players should be given a chance against Australia or Argentina once you've taken care of the All Blacks 2-0.
Dont know why the conversation is centered around players yet again. When are we going to address the lack of attack at the boks.
No guts JN
No admission that mistakes were made. I respect this coaching ticket, but this denial of any wrongdoing is starting to get to me. Dweba's poor performance also caused the loss of the 2nd test against Wales. I am dumbfounded why Grobbelaar is not there
Duane is too old, Roos is the new man. Marx is the man of the moment. Any fool can see that. 1yr out we're still fielding 36yr olds at starts against fired up teams. Plus we have makeshift winger when there are loads in SA. Kriel past it too. Wise up coaches. 😒
Time to blood younger players ie Roos and Louw. Dweba should be offered more game time off the bench...come on last 15 or 20 minutes. It will do him good playing for Stormers in URC💪
Yesterday I said that Dweba and Duane should have bever started. 🤔🤨🙄
Really have no words for this piss-taker anymore
Man up to your error there. Give people a chance against other teams not the all blacks
Delusional
