I agree with Rolf, PdV should be thinking 2011. A new captain should also be identified much earlier. Vic is my choice as he still has a few seasons in him. JS does not have the fire BdP has.

Smit at hooker for sure--Bismarck is good in the loose but gives away penalties and Smit's captaincy is essential. He isn't a top class prop--ok but not top class. Guys--the scrum doesn't only consist of the front row-important though they are. When Italy pushed the Boks backwards the loosies were already detaching instead of pushing--biggest but not the only culprit Kankowski--all forwards must maintain the push until the ball is out, and watch the difference.Thye Boks desperately need to restore parity at scrumtime with everyone-not just the weaker nations.

Smit is not the best, but the team perform better when he's on hooker. A scrum going backwards puts pressure on the whole team. If it's a "weak" point having him on hooker, then so be it. He is a great captain, and we can't afford not to pick him.

The Irish scrum is not as strong as other recent opposition, so Boks should start with Smit at prop and Bismarck at Hooker. Then, depending how it goes at scrum time, sub Bismarck for a prop later on moving Smit to Hooker.
Kanko should be held back, his rangy frame and pace is better suited to dry conditions and hard fields.

This is a tough one. For a win against Ireland, I'd say start with BJ, Smit, Beast. Then, at 60, bring on Bismark, move Smit over to tighthead to keep him on the park and close it off. Then, bring on CJ for the Beast. Or, CJ first and Beast at 60. Sheesh, I'm glad I'm not the coach.

all too old. the boks need to develop a squad for 2011. if they continue bringning on the old guns, and not select the best players available, also thos abroad, they wont get anywhere in 2011. but down.

John Smit for hooker! On the opposition ball the Bok scrum will be very powerfull with virtually three props in the front row.

Bok scrum not only gained parity but actually started to dominate once BJ went to TH and Smitty went to Hooker.

John smit at Hooker for sure. When the change was made SA were not just going forward again they were hammering the Italian scrum. No question Bismark is a solid player but so is John Smit and he is in my mind the best captain in the world right now. Could even be one of the best captains of all time.
