Hooker, anybody?

Poor lad hasn't put a foot wrong since he became a Bok and yet I don't recall him ever having his own thread(I could be wrong).

After yesterday's game, he certainly deserves some flowers.

I'm trying to think if I ever recall something he has done in green and gold which has reminded me that he's a noob. I can't think of anything.

Last night was yet another game where he made his own luck. That seems to be a theme with him, making his own luck. He makes something out of hardly ever being passed a ball, out of high balls, desperate defence efforts and seemingly having enough power to lean into it when he needs to.

...and he's good on the mic.

Plumster you will doubtless recall that I selected Hooker before Arendse. He has a great rugby brain.
I think in future our back three could be Kolbe, Hooker and Willemse. Kolbe though has a broken jaw so he will be out for a while.
That said Arendse had a good game and wont let us down if he plays.

I like what I have seen thus far. He looks switched on and engaged. He looks for work, and sums up broken play instantly. He has all the ingredients for a successful career at test level. Interestingly, he is one of the new faces I haven't seen before. It's great to see a new generation stepping forward to stake their claim.

Great player...will play many tests...I must watch more Sharks matches...

Hoor hoor, kid is doing a fantastic job. I've been watching him play in a really poor sharks team for the last two seasons. He never stops, busy all games if the line is broken, he chases down. Where as some on here have been harping on about Jerenzo Julius who can break the line, but that is about it. Doesn't play the rest of the game.

Only 23, time for him and Moodie to he in the same team.

If I was hooker I would go to the bools or the Stomers, hell, even the lions.

Just worried of he plays to long on the wing if he would ever become a centre. That said, he may be a bit too lean, but he has serious pace and very strong
