PREVIEW: Uhuru Vanda, Johan van Heerden and James Roberts will need to be at their best at both the breakdown and at set-piece in order to pull one from Dale this weekend, writes KAMVA SOMDYALA UHURU, JOHAN, JAMES TO NULLIFY DALE When I sat across the room from Jamie Brookes a few weeks ago, he announced himself as a fetcher at open side flank. However, his specialties havent been exposed as he has been sidelined for weeks. His glimpses at open side were on show, to some extent against Selborne. Having said that, specialists at the breakdown are there in Uhuru Vanda and James Roberts. Vanda is a specialist and Roberts has always been an out and out fetcher, although his move to blindside remains warranted. Vanda, as an unpredictable player will create some much needed dynamics, fronting a Dale side that equally has its share of dynamics. His mutual relationship with Roberts has boded well in the last few weeks, bossing the breakdown and winning turnover ball. Add Johan to the equation and youre good to go. He (Johan) plays the role of a physical nature which is able to nullify any attack. His prowess in that department is unmatched. The three musketeers will make merry, bossing the breakdown and winning the battle at the gain line. Set-pieces will also rely on Vanda to be at his best. It is a match that needs to be watched carefully and enjoyed. Based on the evidence of what we have in front of us, thatll be the case MY CALL: Queens by 6 Queens 1st XV: 15 Leroy Kuyler, 14 Dancan Mureguzi, 16 Avela Jubase (C), 12 Juan du Randt, 11 Yaw Penxe, 10 Albré Wagener , 9 Raegan Oranje, 8 Alan-Graham Rautenbach (V/C), 7 James Roberts, 6 Jamie Brookes, 5 Nick Riding, 4 Johan van Heerden, 3 Qhawe Bula, 2 Uhuru Vanda, 1 Siyavuya Mlwayo Dale 1st XV: 15 Godknows Mavara, 14 Luzuko Mase, 13 Yamkela Nyalambisa, 12 Siyamthanda Mgubo, 11 Luyolo Khuse, 10 Justerino Davids, 9 Sbu Ngcokovane (C), 8 Bunono Sindi, 7 Siyanda Am, 6 Bunono Bonono, 5 Lwazi Poswayo, 4 Johann Loubser, 3 Kuhle Mokhoabane, 2 Sango Mtotywa, 1 Zimi Ngqongqwana (VC)
