Why Ruan at Full back, well at the moment if Peter De Villiers cannot see the value of playing the best Fullback in South Africa in Stephan Terblanche, he will have no other option.

 

Earl Rose would not even be selected in my Varsity third side and the thought of him putting on a Springbok jersey would annoy me more than if Luke Watson was ever recalled.

 

Steyn at first five eight is a no brainer, but then again this is the Springbok selectors we are talking about and who knows what political pressure would be put on them in selecting the “right” team.

 

I must say it was very satisfying to see Terrie Henry see his dream come true, finally getting his hands on the European Cup with Barcelona beating Manchester Untied 2-0 in Rome.

 

Barcelona were incredible making United look like some practice team. Anyway United will still be happy with the English Title.

 

Chelsea won the FA Cup beating Everton 2-1. Good news for all Bafana fans was that Steven Pienaar played a full 90 minutes and he should be fine for the Confederation Cup. On the Scottish side, go Rangers you beauties.

 

They took the Double in beating Falkirk 1-0 in the Scottish Cup and them taking the title away from Celtic.

 

With the soccer and rugby leagues over it is now onto the international scene. Confederation Cup starts on June 14 with SA taking on Iraq.

 

The World Cricket T20 starts in England on the fifth of this month. The Lions Tour has started and of course the French Open is in full swing. There is plenty to see for everyone.

 

Until next week, have fun, take care.

 

Cheers
