Injured Gio Aplon should have played 100 Tests for South Africa, says Jake White Ashfak Mohamed © Provided by Independent Online (IOL) CAPE TOWN - It was a classic move – Gio Aplon came into the line from fullback following a Bulls lineout, and he stepped the first defender in his sight, Pumas wing Tafiwa Mafura. There was also a little show-and-go in it, showing his absolute class as Mafura fell for it hook, line and sinker. But he didn’t quite see Erich Cronjé coming in from his blindside, and the Pumas No 13 brought him down. In the ensuing breakdown, both Cronjé and teammate Etienne Taljaard were competing for the ball, while Madosh Tambwe and Chris Smith were trying to clean them out.
