295 @ Scrumdown:
And you were right.
Look about the other things you were going on about here. I understand. If it was my team that was treated like that I too would be the bloody hell in too.
Me too. Out of here. Heck my heart feels bad for our Boks.
Anyhow tomorrow the sun will shine. Cheers all.
Ciao a tutti. I’ll go and sob into my pillow now.
Cheers all, tomorrow is another day.
OK, time for me to go too.

JM’s hearing is not concluded yet. Attorneys not available etc etc etc.
SA Rugby is worst than a 3 ring circus.
At least a circus is organised.
Kan ek maar opnoem wie was kak? Sideshow Bob, Habana, de Villiers, Steyn, Mvovo, Morne, Hougaard, al 8 voorspelers en die subs.
@302 Ooom Super.
Not about being right or wrong. My (very) late Father always always quoted “there are none so blind as those who will not see”.
Flip I used o think he was just an “old fart” full of sh1t, but my goodness he was so right.
Guess I’ll have to rethink how I live my life.
CowTow or stand up for what is right or wrong.
Obviously everyone’s pricipals differ.
Hehehe.
Seems like all the bubbles have burst and that everyone has gone to rest.
Well, let me say at his juncture that if my comparisons between SARU and and any dictatorial regime of the 20th century upset anyone, it was not my intention to do so.
That I am utterly ticked off with SARU, and will be so for A VERY LONG TIME is without question, but that is my problem, and nobody else’s.
However, as a person fast approaching his half century of life on this planet, I know myself, and I know that I don’t change my opinions and thoughts easily.
I stick by my comparisons made earlier this evening between SARU and other historical bodies, which I consider totally above board and fair in the light of the decisions made by SARU and it’s structures in the last month.
If any blogger on Rugby-Talk takes exception to my views, please feel free to contact me directly to discuss such. I’m sure that our Webmaster will provide anyone with my e-mail address who would like to discuss this matter further.
Rest assured, I (probably more than any other blogger on RT) remain TOTALLY committed to developing Rugby within this country.
Bwahahahahha.
A yellow cap on Superbru. \
Could end up like Armstrong. Stripped of all yellow and kicked out of the pool!
311 @ Scrumdown:
LANCE Armstronge, not NIEL.
I was going to give my opinions but I think it has all been said by others, crap game. My only comment is about our much vaunted second row, Bekker was outplayed, and I can only remember seeing Eben about twice in the game. This by the lowest ranked team in the competition. The ABs will slaughter us unless something drastic happens.
Ok, so from the confines of East London Airport let me say:
The Boks are in the shit.
The coach hasn’t coached properly for years and it shows in his game plan.
Maybe PDivvy wasn’t so bad after all?
BRING BACK JAKE!
Loosehead, my wife flying home from EL as well on 1Time. Apparently, her flight had one passenger extra. They had to check all boarding passes again inside plane.
Jy wassie dalk die vark innie verhaal nie? 😉
@ fender:
I was on the flight. They seemed to have counted wrong.
