Blood brothers done

I HAVE A GREAT RESPECT FOR VICTOR MATFIELD AND HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT HE COULD HAVE BEEN A GREAT CAPTAIN ESPECIALLY IN PARTNERSHIP WITH BAKKIES.
UNFORTUNATELY THE TIME HAS PASSED AND I CANNOT SEE THE POINT IN VICTOR LEADING THE BOKS IN WARM UP GAMES IF HE IS NOT GOING FORWARD TO PLAY IN THE WORLD CUP NEXT YEAR.IT MAKES MUCH MORE SENSE TO PUT BISMARK IN NOW HE HAS DONE A GREAT JOB FOR THE SHARKS AND HE HAS MOTIVATED 13 MEN TO COME THROUGH AND WIN A GAME AGAINST THE ODDS.ALSO IF HE IS PLAYING NEXT YEAR IN THE WORLD CUP HE CAN BE AVAILABLE AS CAPTAIN OR VICE CAPTAIN.I THINK IT IS A NO BRAINER TO USE VICTOR AS CAPTAIN.

No! I think the smart thing to do is start again with a younger skipper ...

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
