    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    Utter boknai (translated: bullshit) Bismarck is a wrecking machine. It has nothing to do with highlight reels. It's every ruck he hits, every offensive tackle he makes, his lineout throwing, his ability to carry the ball. Smit struggles to make the rucks and is a defensive liability. There are...

    Yes, just like I refute the idea that the Thief would enjoy an advantage over the Non-tackler in the wet.

    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    Bakkies is not match fit and can't play more than 40 anyway. He would have been a liability in this game I reckon, Especially with a guy like Rossouw he has been our best forward.

    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    Steenkamp is a way better scrummager than Beast. Beast on bench never make sense. Can't cover 3. Bakkies gone is a blessing. Poor form and Danie Rossouw deserves to start. Extra back because of the F Steyn injury. Need more options on bench. Butch on bench because of chance of rain if Morne...

    We need him. Defense and linebreaks have been good.

    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    In the wet I will take the crash baller especially if I have plenty of kicking in the rest of the backline. No brainer to have Beale, Cooper and JOC (James O'Connor) popping up as first and second receiver to kick and Genia will kick a lot if it's wet.

    With the chance of wet you need to keep it close which means setting it up through ball carriers so McCabe makes sense to me.

    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    Opportunity squandered. Bismarck and Alberts should have started and it will be our undoing. All the noises from PdV before the Cup were that Bismarck would start the knockout games. I guess the PDiv / J Smit pact is even stronger than we thought. Wobs by ten for the simple reason that we...

    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    Who does? Bit the discipline and lack of retaliation speak volumes. I thought halfway through the second half that there was going to be a blow up. Samoa expected it and when it didn't happen they started to lose their rag. Still, most people seem to think 2 wrongs make a right and Samoa's...

    Burger at training. Also hanging onto his balls.

    It's on Supersport.com but they block Aus viewers. Someone posted it on the Fern though but I won't post the link here. It's like calling "he who shall not be named" Voldemort in public without an appropriate spell.

    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    Schullik McBurglaugh I believe. Dirty fucker. Do try keep up. I said clearly that I do not condone any past actions by Bok players. You're not the first person who seems to think that makes Samoa's actions somehow justified. But I give you the benefit of the doubt that you didn't watch the...

    Uhm, clearly no. It didn't work. Also didn't work for the Lions. Playing rugby is a better idea.

    RWC 2011 QF1: Ireland v Wales (W Pool C v RU Pool D)

    Isn't Shane Williams 'Ikul'? What's with you people from the hills and your nickname for everyone business? I knew a Welsh bloke once who had a nickname for his car, his bike and had a nickname for everyone including his girlfriend.

    I asked the receptionist at my hotel before the SA Wales game if he thought it was going to rain and he told me to wait until after kickoff and ask him again :)

    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    Samoa beat the Boks? Oh you mean the way they played? What, holding defenders down, constant offside, delibaretely trying to provoke the Boks into a fight (for which all credit has to go to Matfield, he was constantly ion everyon's ear to not retaliate. His leadership in that game was nothing...

    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    All the talk has been about who to play at 12, the breakdown, forwards manning up etc. In my opinion that's all good but the real factor in this match will be whether the Wobs can unlock the Boks umbrella style defense. We have never employed this strategy against Australia. It has worked well...
