Burger grilled and roasted

SCHALK BURGER may be nominated for the IRB Player of the Year, but South Africa coach Jake White’s patience with him is wearing thin.

Burger picked up a yellow card, and a subsequent €625 fine from his country, for persistent killing of the ball during Saturday’s test win over Wales in Cardiff.

And White has threatened to drop the forward for the crunch showdown with England at Twickenham if he transgresses again during this weekend’s game against Ireland at Lansdowne Road.
