Late Tackle: Injured Springboks road to recovery
EXCLUSIVE: Springbok lock Lood de Jager sheds some light on his road to recovery, what has been keeping him busy, and shares his thoughts on the Springboks' embarrassing defeat to Argentina.
De Jager reveals the extent of his injury and how he gone about his recovery from 20:23 before mentioning something pretty interesting about him remaining involved with the Blue Bulls for the Currie Cup.
There is a slight change to the start of the show as Morgan Newman's place was taken by West Coast Crew 10s president 'Moose', who digs up some dirt on what Newman is really like in the 10s scene.
He goes on to speak about just how big the social rugby scene is around the globe before Newman makes an appearance as the discussion switches to the second round of the Rugby Championships from 06:23.
Anton 'Worms' van Zyl makes an interesting suggestion about restructuring the format of the competition just before Lood de Jager makes an appearance.
The show concludes with Newman loving his fantasy points after another exceptional Beauden Barrett performance just before the shortened Currie Cup gets some time in the spotlight.

If Razor picked jaded players, where is the role of a squad? Where is the anticipated innovation from this group? The season has been a big disappointment considering the talent available (but left sitting on the sideline). Was ready for a fresh approach after the frustration of the Foster era but we only got more of the same and a timid coaching group.
Go to commentsWatching the game now I get a sense of things to come. Ref puts his flag up when Patricks legs go over the line ages after he has released the ball. That is not out in touch.
Then Tele'a has a brain fade and tries to jump into touch, slapping the ball back, when he should know and be trained in running from outside touch and jumping into the field of play with it. If he had of done that simple fix of altering his approach angle there's noway anyone is getting to him to stop the try.
