It's culture and mentality. From club level up for the most part rugby is run and coached by establishment types wherever you go. And everyone's on a power trip. Grey heads who have done things the same for years and so have those before them. It takes an innovator like Ackerman, with the...

Wow. Take a break man. It's only a game. You're getting upset because your country's teams win every weekend and dominate. :confused: I guess you have to get upset at something.

Marshall summed it up. Everything the Stormers do is totally predictable.

God it's sad if that is what makes you feel good. What on earth are SA and Aus going to do? No answer. Nothing. We cannot run with the Kiwis. And NONE of the players look like they believe they can either. It is starting to really look dire.

I'd love to as the likes of Kearns and co what they REALLY think and how frustrating it must be to not be able to speak their mind. The post match analysis is predictable drivel. I'll look out for Kearns at the shops. We seem to hang around the same supermarket from time to time, making...

In contrast Joel Stransky absolutely laid into the Bulls over the weekend during live commentary. Refreshing. He actually sounded angry. Basically said that their is nothing they should not take to the drawing board. From top to bottom. He ripped into the coaches for their terrible attack...

Long time since the Brumbies have been "succesful" It's not the basis of the argument in my opinion.

They really are incredibly bloody stupid in the way they are handling this.

All I know is that Curwin Bosch must not come anywhere near a BOk team. We have a history of destroying young 10's One bad game and the media and supporters will turn on him. It's what we seem to do. He will end up pissing off overseas in thee years time and we will never hear of him again...

Oh. We're still fucked. Just differently.

Nope. It will be Jantjes. They may have a brain explosion and put Steyn on the bench though. All depends if Lambie is fit and if they are willing to chance young Curwin Bosch or give du Preez a shot off the bench. It's pretty dire though. Jantjes has had ample opportunities and has been crap...

Match this weekend. Montpellier put 50 on Racing. Team sheets below. French players in bold. Out of the 46 players: Montpellier: 7 French, 16 Foreigners Racing: 6 French, 17 Foreigners So that is 13 French and 33 Foreigners :eek: Montpellier: 15 Joffrey Michel, 14 Joe Tomane...

This, but with the real danger that Cox ends up with too much power. This is the problem. Either a league is fully professional, with owners and the Union sitting together around a table with proper governance and an agreed charter, upheld by the ARU, or you end up in the half baked model...

I don't know whereto for Super Rugby bit as long as it is as far away as possible from the rubbish served up in Pretoria, Durban, Sydney and Perth this weekend. The basic lack of skill, vision and execution on display by 8 professional sports teams is dumbfounding. And it seems to me it is...

Australian and South African rugby is in dire straits. Derbies are for the most part dull affairs and this game just underlines once again that we are miles behind the Kiwis. I have no idea what the answer is.

I actually have no idea. :)

Stomps = Stompie = Cigarette Butt = Butt ends. :)

No chance. They are too unfit and there is no way this coach suddenly pulls a game plan and caching style out of his arse midway through the season that will beat a Kiwi team. They will stick to the on-up runners, be in the game until 60 mins and then their fitness or lack thereof will take...

What's an adobt?

The Bulls are shit. Shitter than shit. Fire the lot. Start with the coach and finish with the reserve jersey washer. Take the best from the Kings and Cheetahs, get a new coach and start again. Send all the current players to the fat farm. The Stomps are pretenders. As soon as someone takes on...
