Le Roux for Bok flyhalf

Bok 10 = Willie le Roux.
He has been brilliant Every single time he has come in at first receiver. A natural decision-maker with vision, flair, unpredictably & the skillset to make the right play & threaten the line. all the attributes of a world-class attacking flyhalf - but sadly against the mould for a 'traditional' SA skop-skiet flyhalf (if he was wallaby, french or NZ, he would be played 10 & be a genius puppet-master).
I would play him @ 10 and Frans Steyn @ 15.
On defence & inside our 22 (exit strategy) - Frans Steyn at flyhalf & WleR @ fullback .
All other situations, WleR at 10 & F.Steyn at 15.
Sadly this seems a pipe-dream. If Rugby scribes can't even see it, what odds on HM having the vision.

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.
