Actually the thought process was explained.... “Although Julian Redelinghuys was also considered, he’s still new in the team and not familiar with our patterns of play and especially the line-out calls, while Coenie knows the way we play well,” said Meyer..... yes JR is a way better in scrum, but there is more to the game. Once JR is up to speed with the game plan and calls, he will be a much bigger asset than Coenie.... I think he will see game time later in the tour
