Interesting, thought the Lions wants him badly. Rayno Gerber apparently is running with the Brutes.

I still cant believe Ireland dont use 7s? Now that it change to an Olympics sport it has added value. Watching the young William Small-Smith from SA playing at the level you sure are going to hear a lot of this kid in future. He has been great on schoolboy level in SA and took it last year one...

My pleasure Boet, I am fortunate enough to live in a rugby mad enviroment. Regarding Jets avator, that can be a very good reason to start playing touchies on the beach? :nta:

Sadies Brutes offer was way beyond his experiense. WP had a line of players with his experiense and no way they can offer them all the same amount of money. Pretty sure SA have the same thing as you described.

Doc you should never lost some good old rugby values when growing the game, need to grow the values with the game.

This week it moves to PE for the first time in SA. Previously the event was in George and pretty sure it will be huge for the Port Elizabeth area and in the Nelson Mandela Stadium Pools for the Port Elizabeth leg of the HSBC World Sevens Series: Pool A: England, Argentina, USA...

Another very popular summer series in SA is our own touchie series along the Southern Cape beaches. 2011 FOUR COUSINS HOT SUMMER OF TOUCH There Are 7 Opportunities To Own The Beach This Year In The 2011 FOUR COUSINS Hot Summer Of Touch. Does Your Team Have What It Takes To Dominate...

7s in SA have their plans well in ahead for years to come. Just after the regular rugby season ends all the regions throughout SA have their 7s tournament per school qualifying for a national tournament in Rustenburg. We even have a 7s Craven Week for U13 & U18 age group from this year. U18...

They are all good ones specially Berry & Immelman. I am just glad to see LeGoete gone, he was an imbarrasment. Watson do a great job bringing young refs to the party. I know at Paarl Gym (Versveld) put in a big effort in getting young schoolboy laaities to the ref option these days. SA have...

hallo Boet, have no idea why bayonne released him. Maybe braaivleis the reason. Only one season.

SA Ref Panels for 2012 SARugby

Very true. First the school have to provide the sport type. Kids have to play it and in their language it must be cool to play that kind of sport. At Paarl Gim its cool to play rugby, hockey and cricket. Its part of the school culture. Once you get that, you are on your way of growing the sport...

From a SA perspective it sound duff. You need to grow your schoolboy base at the very bottom. The SA rugby structure fast line = schoolboy, Rugby Academy at provincial level, U19, U21, Vodacom, CC, S15. CC can be a long drive from a small province to a S15 franchise. Slow line = schoolboy...

The CC final was a week after the WC final and it draws more spectators to the Stadium? To grow rugby in any country is to grow it at the bottom structure. Thats where you start. If you get one under7 player at school to play, he bring his mum, dad and sussie, boetie watching his matches...

Wait a second Boet before you jump here with ineptness. Jac Fourie was still in contract when Sadie got his R Million contract from the Brute which was comparable with the senior players like Schalk Burgers contract and he wanted a starting spot in the Stormers team to stay. Jac Fourie Japanese...

Ja they surely will try and hold on AD Jacobs as a backup specially in 12. The others are very young and I'll rather have his experiense then Berton Klaasen. Grant can play 12 aswell and JdJ both.

I am glad he is leaving, just sad that Rassie and Wagner tried way to long to keep him. They should have fired him and offered Sadie his contract. Now if we can just stop picking overseas Bokke. make it much more easier for players like Jac to chase money.

Yep but this will give others a change. The new player cycle starts in 2012 and I do blame him for the loss WP made when losing Johann Sadie. Pretty sure we could have kept Johann if Jac made up his mind earlier like FdP and Danie Rossouw about his plans. Johann moved because WP wanted to keep...
