Re: Stadium seating prizes?

Rusty, do you guys have a different meaning to rockspider than us? (In Oz a rockspider is someone who has sex with children)

Hell, I am half a boer, half a soutie, and half American. Add it up and you have one big mess.

I'm sorry but in that case you're fucked :lmao:

In South Africa it's another insulting name for a Afrikaaner. On par with Dutchman. Didn't know it was used to describe peodophiles. My apologies in case any of the Aussies thought I was using it in that manner.

This nickname thing is always a interesting thing and me and the ref of the forum (Lind) had a good open discussion about it. I use the Convict name for the Aussies and it seem to offend them. Never mend it that way but myself never have a problem with the nick thing. We grow up with it and you can call me anything from rockspider, Jaapie (still cant figure out why they use this one or Yarpie like some Ferners do), white Boer, dutchman, Blood sausage (the Paarl Gym one) or whatever. The one I dont like is mountain goat ,only because it comes from a arsehole like Keo.

Anyway I think nicknames for rugby supporters is something I grow up with and think its great in the rugby spirit. I mean the badder they name you, the more respect they show to you as a opponent.

What do they call the Kiwis? :nta:

Shouldn't you and the ou vrou be packing up the Mercedes for the drive down to invade Durbs and the beach for the next month? Bloody Vaalie.

Re: Stadium seating prizes?

The other nick the Durbs souties dont like is the Guppie one. For some reason they dont like it one bit. Maybe when Billy gets back he can explain where the Guppie name come from. Billy is a Westville boytjie, also Boer with a very smooth english on him.

Hell I still blame my ou toppie about the english, he refuse point blank anything about Pom in our house, walk out the door when God save the Queen played before tests and refuse to speak it. Took me flippen ages to realise language is only a communication method and not a war, like they had in their day.

Now the english have put a spell on me with my girl dropping her english one in her first year at Maties.

No offense on my part I was just wondering if it had the same connotations as it does in Oz. I was pretty sure it didn't. So why do they call Afrikaners rockspiders by the way?

I think guppies are what we call Kwazulu Natal and their supporters as in a type of shark with no bite (though I wouldn't want to be bitten by one).

PB - I'm surprised Keo's site is still going aunless it has improved in the last 5 years. I remember going there years ago as I didn't know of any other forums and heard it mentioned on rugbyheaven. It was there that I learned about the existence of the fern.

Sorry so a shark with no bite is a guppie?

I do go to Keo but never read the posts, its a bit like PR, all bitch fighting, exct and no rugby talking. Well thats where I also picked the Fern up.

Sheep Shaggers would be the most common term I've heard... although that's a bit dated now since we've moved to be stronger in the dairy industry.... I guess cows just don't have the same appeal.

:lmao: Strange they call you lot that, for some reason some Saffers call the Aus cricketers that.

Cow should work if you use right gum boots. :nta: ask the Blue Bulls supporters, they know how to deal with a cow.

Yup, as Rusty said, the Guppie nickname was given to the Sharks rugby team - probably in the days when Kevin Putt was coach and the team had no bite.
A Guppie is a tiny fish.... bit like a goldfish, only smaller.

As Paarl says, I am a Westville (In Kwa-Zulu Natal, also known as the Last British Outpost) boy - Afrikaans family, but went to an English scool from aged 10.
So I guess the official Saffa description for me is an Anglicized Dutchman :lmao:
Paarl will attest to the fact that my Afrikaans these days is spoken (and at times mangled) with an English accent - much to the amusement of many of my extended family members.

Still want to learn Xhosa at some stage. Know a few Sotho words mostly the swear ones. Always good when you start talking to a Xhosa/Sotho/Zulu in their own language, sure they appreciate it. The problem is when you learn it you have to talk it a lot. Probably the reason why I was for such a long time the only one understanding Snor's Paarl language. :

like mandela had dinner with the white fella before your world cup win, our leader will probably call tom carter in in 2011 to ask him to get the job done.

its the only way australia can unite all you immigrants from your anti north africa zone with our general population!
