    Reds vs Waratahs, 2011R10

    It went wrng when TPN went off. The very next scrum was not as dominant with Uligia and could have resulted in another penalty and quite possible a penalty try after that. TPN just doesn't have more than 60 in him. With Moore as backup that would be okay but with a rookie it can be costly...

    Reds vs Waratahs, 2011R10

    An enjoyable error fest. Scrummus horrubulus. Classic case of the Waratahs not knowing how to win games when it matters. They had every chance to score and royally fucked it up. Scarf. No ref would have given that a try. There was no way of seeing it. Kepu surely has to be the...

    SA Rugby matters

    Well he plays 7 most the time but I think you mean of all of them he is the most specialised at 8 having played there more. Anyone else noticed how often Brussow packs at 8 on defense for the Cheetahs? O reckon defenseive scrums with Schalk on the openside and Brussow running from 8 could...

    SA Rugby matters

    Brussow showed that he needs little game time to get back in the swing. I would love to see Schalk at 8. He has all the skills. Brussow / Schalk / Juan with Alberts on the bench Else Brussow / Alberts / Schalk But Spies will play at 8 no matter what. God he has been absolutely zero...

    Force V Bulls - 2011R10

    The way the Bulls have been going, that Force team can beat us. Take it wide. Holes open up outside. Like the Reds showed. The Force pack can make a scrap of it and get enough ball.

    JOC (James O'Connor) to Rebels as well?

    Or maybe you know you are not good enough and there are three guys above you in the pecking order.

    PdV does not watch Super Rugby: http://www.keo.co.za/2011/04/20/another-div-inspired-pr-disaster/#more-76980 He will stick woth the old guard. The new names in there are no hope. Unless Rassie will have some influence over him. Which I very much doubt.

    Force V Bulls - 2011R10

    Pretorius out at 13, replaced by Dippenaar, slowest cente in the history of Super Rugby and the most baffling Bulls cap in 5 years.

    Force V Bulls - 2011R10

    Lol. Paarl doesnlt like the Force. That much he has made clear in the past. Agree. Not a pretty game in store for fans on either side. Ok Charger I retract. He is talking crap. ;)

    SA Rugby matters

    Typical argie bargie schoolboy throw your toys stuff. PdV has been after Rassie for a while and the Western Province management haven't been too happy to let him go. All in all an extremely positive outcome. At least we go to the Cup with a bit of extra brains.

    Force V Bulls - 2011R10

    So announcing a team early in the week has a subliminal message? You're talking shit.

    Force V Bulls - 2011R10

    Last year I felt we still had a lot left in the tank and were beaten at the end of a long tour and knew we would go back to Pretoria and ride the thing home. This year I have a feeling that was about as well as we can play and there are many teams better than that. Like I said, it all happens...

    Force V Bulls - 2011R10

    Not so fast. Work has sadly taken over my life and there is no end in sight. I haven't even seen the last three Super 15 rounds which must be some kind of record for me. I resigned myself to a mid table finish for the Bulls at the beginning of the year and I think that will more or less...

    Reds vs Bulls 2011R09

    Too much being made about teams using what is written in the media to motivate themselves. I had a discussion about this with a recent Bok and he said they used to laugh at the stuff written in the media and said it played abolsutely no role in how they prepared for a match. As for the actual...

    who is confirmed to leave?

    What a terribly naive post. You make it sound like it's a doddle to reinvent yourself. Not. These guys have this 5-10 years to take advantage of an opportunity that is staring them right in the face. Right now. But heck, they should go for glory. After all, they can always reinvent...

    Stormers vs Queensland Reds @ Newlands - 2011R08

    Agree on Kafe. I have reversed my opinion about him 100% since all his bleating about the Brumbies being so wonderful started. Comes across as a prize dick at the moment. My view on beating the stormers is you have to dominate the breakdown consistently on attack and make them commit bodies...

    Actually, yes, considering the card count but I follow you misguided point.

    GC, Keo.co.za can not be seriosuly considered "media". He needs to spew shit so he can get the rabid masses into a fury and sell advertising on his blog. The "Real" media like the Cape Argus and the Cape Times appear to me to have been very realistic about this weekend's game. They are...

    Importance of SA's Vodacom Competition

    Barbarian I am sitting on the fence at the moment. I still think the derbies for SA and NZ are overkill, but acknowledge they are what is needed here in Aus. I have enjoyed the Rebels but in my opinion there is a very thin case for them developing Aus rugby but that is my opinion. For every...
