Boks call up 'consistently superb' rookie to replace Arendse

The Springboks have called up an ‘exciting’ rookie to replace Kurt-Lee Arendse, whose Rugby Championship is effectively over after he was banned from playing for four weeks.

Arendse was banned for a dangerous tackle against New Zealand in Nelspruit last Saturday, which will only see him cleared to return to action in mid-September. This means the flyer won’t be available for the Boks next three games and will only be available for selection for their final outing.

The collision saw both Arendse and Beauden Barrett needing medical assistance, with the South African speedster ultimately being taken off on a medical cart. Barrett player on, despite landing directly on his head after being hit in the air.

      “I’m going grey” – Ian Foster

      Arendse has been released from the wider Springboks squad as a result of the suspension.

      In his place comes Canan Moodie, a standout in this year’s URC with Jake White’s Bulls. The 19-year-old is one of the brightest prospects in SA rugby.

      “Canan is one of the most exciting young backline prospects in the country as he showed in the Vodacom United Rugby Championship this year,” said Nienaber.

      “His consistently superb performances earned him a place in the final against eventual champions, the DHL Stormers, and this, combined with his Junior Springbok experience in the 2021 Under-20 International Series, will set him in good stead as he enters the Springbok environment.

      “Canan was due for a second stint with the Junior Boks this year but unfortunately missed out because of injury. He has a high work ethic, and he’s a skilful player, so we are excited to see what he brings to squad.”

      Crusaders prepare for 'dangerous in all elements' Chiefs game-breaker

      It all began in late 2024 when I fell victim to a sophisticated phishing scam. An email, seemingly from a reputable crypto exchange, prompted me to update my security settings. Unbeknownst to me, this was a trap. Within hours, my Bitcoin holdings vanished from my wallet. Devastated, I scoured the internet for solutions. That’s when I stumbled upon NanoAethosCoinRecovery, a firm renowned for its expertise in retrieving stolen cryptocurrencies. Skeptical yet desperate, I reached out to them. Their team responded promptly, assuring me of their commitment to assist. They explained their process: utilizing advanced blockchain analysis tools to trace the movement of stolen funds and collaborating with exchanges to freeze and recover assets. Over the next few weeks, they provided regular updates, detailing the trail of my stolen Bitcoin. Their persistence paid off. They identified the wallet holding my funds and, through their network, managed to facilitate the return of my Bitcoin. This experience was a stark reminder of the risks in the crypto space and the importance of swift action and expert assistance. Thanks to NanoAethosCoinRecovery, I not only recovered my assets but also gained invaluable insights into safeguarding my digital wealth.

      Where is the new breed of All Black 10?

      These kids have been playing in leagues comparable to SR, not the NPC

      The likes of games these guys get introduced to are closer to NPC than SR.


      This is the team Sam played with in his first Leinster game;

      Ed BYRNE

      Tadgh MCELROY

      Tom CLARKSON

      Alex SOROKA

      Brian DEENY

      James CULHANE

      Will CONNORSE

      Max DEEGAN

      Nick MCCARTHY

      Sam PRENDERGAST

      Dave KEARNEY

      Ben BROWNLEE

      Liam TURNER

      Tommy O'BRIEN

      Chris COSGRAVE

      It’s too short, not as competitive and there are (usually) no test players in that comp.

      You’re talking about something else altogether, sure, I’m not saying people around the world want to watch the NPC, but locally its just the same with a large amount of internationals playing, even All Blacks.

      The evidence the NPC is not on par is in the U20 WC. SH sides haven’t won it since 2017

      You obviously have had very little exposure to New Zealand rugby. The NPC is made up all the Super Rugby players, plus the club battlers trying to get a gig. Far above u20 rugby level.

      Guys like Attisogbe, Gazzotti and Louis BB were in those sides. They were Top14 regulars at the time and are test players now.

      What you need to understand is that NZ rugby is not like France, basically the complete opposite. AB jerseys are not just handed out like that and there is very little room for u20 as every player in these squads is battling for an AB jersey basically. Super Rugby only has 5 teams, not 14. Sure, you can argue more exposure is better, but season length is not going to do that, you just have to get onboard with how NZ does it. They are the best after all.

      NZ used to chuck talented youngsters in at the deep end in SR. Carter, McCaw and quite a few others from the 2011 and 2015 WC winning teams were in SR at 20, 21 and ABs a year later.

      You are definitely star struck. I like it, reminds me of playing Championship Manager. It’s no different now, heard of Wallace Sititi, Peter Lakai, Noah Hotham? NZ was one of the youngest squads going around and a good number of 20/21 yo’s coming into SR each year.


      You don’t want players under pressure at that age, hence what teams do in those comps I mentioned. NZ definitely takes that to a different level for 17/18 yo, and even younger, but when you hear what happens to them when you don’t, I think that’s the right path.
