Yeah. We kicked it down in the opposition territory and then apply the pressure forcing teams into mistakes. You started running from inside your half making mistakes we capitalize on it. We did use other options in previous Tri Nations tournaments. Got smashed though we scored tries from...

Mate you can swim to NZ. You do not have to stay away a long amount of time and drink some beer that sounds something you will find in a sex shop ot practice in the mud for weeks. Not like Australia and NZ are 8 time zones apart. Just look at Sharks last year. You think that was fun? I am not...

We scored the most tries with kicking? I can remember a Fourie bomb. Try Matfield. A Fourie Bomb try Habana and a Fourie bomb in last game vs NZ and Du Preez scored. How did we pin everyone back? Well without his tactical threat Steyn would have no space to kick into.

I was actually referring to old days where teams like the Cats went over early and lost first two lost next to by a huge margin then crawled the bottom of the log for rest of the tournament. At least you guys play the two go home train at your own facilities and swim over to NZ a day before as...

I really think that is a bit harsh. Especially on the Highlanders. They are ranked as one of the top sides attacking its just that final ball getting over the try line that is missing and that final ball possession is not as clean as it was last year. And the one who was responsible for that...

So its just 2 games in SA and back home? Where SA teams have time travel and do 4? Imagine if the conference system wasn't there how a bad trip over there can spoil your chances very early and very quickly

How the mighty have fallen and this is shocking. Comparing 2009 Tri NAtions with 2012 Rugby Championship First 2009 Source: IRB ANALYSIS TRI NATIONS 2009 REPORT So above basically meltsdown to Matfield. From 2004 ro 2009 South Africa’s backs have scored 40 of their 46 tries a far higher...

The kick and chase game. Something we have come to accept as SOuth African rugby. Box kicking just for the sake of it on the highest level? Then I don't think you belong at international level. The idea is to have a no. 9 who is a good tactical kicker. I like to use Fourie Du Preez as a example...

So if you can knock the knickers of someone and act daze and confused you will skip any punishment? Like some one did last year by taking Mvovo out.

How about predictable? You know the Bulls fax you their game plan with the words come and stop us written underneath.

Good thinking. I take it their fitness levels ain't at peak. But Bulls also use to replace their 9 as they do a lot of running. But they do conserve their energy by kicking the ball 60 meters back. So if your opposition and you are going to try and run it back as well as try and keep ball in...

What about that one hit wonder OMC or something who's only hit was How Bizarre?

We have the following problem. No matter who at 10 he is going to kick as we play a territorial game. Also we need to go away from this one dimensional guys like Willem Alberts who stands off flat then get thrown every single ball where he will be gang tackled and ball slow down. Another point...

Its because they were taken lately by the Brumbies, lackluster performance by the Force and Rebels well was just being the Rebels. SA sides one needs to blitz make them make decisions quick and just look at the line up and gang tackle the big oakes running of the 9. Kings are also defensively...

Almost exactly that scenario I am concerned about. Tonga play in the so called 2nd league of it. So they will stay there till they get picked of year by year. They, Samoa and Fiji do use a lot of 19 year olds. Its like they are a development team for a certain country and to see who cuts it who...

This use to be the U/20 championship. Why aren't previous winners of the U/21 tournaments recognized?

I think what took the Tah's down and take most sides down there is the altitude. Its hard for South African teams to go there I can imagine how hard it must have been for Australian teams.

I would like to see Deon FOurie move to the flank. He is brilliant there,

THey actually use the hybrid version of the blitz/drift same as the Kiwi's. A good example of this is the try from Barrett against NZ. Conrad Smith jumping out. He did not make a mistake. It is the part of the defensive pattern. Then 2nd last man will jump out and nail the ball carrier which...

But still Wales first try came from attacking that same region as above there in the 2nd test. 2nd Try cam from a mistake behind the ruck as well
