His transition from loosehead to tighthead has taught him a good few lessons
Trevor Nyakane is not one to shy away from a challenge or new adventure.Nyakane made the considerable transition from loosehead to tighthead so long ago that he cannot recall with certainty when it happened‚ but injury in the Bok camp has necessitated a move back to a jersey he is familiar with.
“In my younger days I was always a loosehead‚” reminded this weekend's loosehead. “There came a time at the union where we were short of tightheads. I was asked to start covering that position. At the time‚ if you asked me‚ I would have said I'm a loosehead just helping out at tighthead. But as time went on that started to change.
But the conversion isn’t easy and must initially feel like putting your left foot into your right boot. If not adequately prepared‚ you could easily put your foot in it.
