    First let me say I have been lurking for a long long time and this site is my go to site for informed opinion I dont have the bandwidth to be neeking around anyway…my three cents worth….Ruan isnt as bad as you all make him out to be….he gets involved makes a lot of tackles etc he gets sucked in and then he is missing..I know I know he should play his position but with morne behind him I think he ov er compensates…now here we go…lamb tjops gives him more time and options…just watch.

    My main worry is that we are returning to the bad old days this business of head grinding.. man it wont work and now we face England and we will lose(because we will be reffed out of the game) and I blame HM because he should ban players.. are we going back to Strueli(spelling?)

    BTW our two (unawarded)tries were good I fail to remember a worse refereed game perhaps that is why our guys get pissed off and play dirty.

    I remember watching Western Transvaal hammering the Franse at Olean park or maybe it was only the naartjies hitting my head that made me believe that.
