    Flok, they’re going to show a rerun of the Ireland / Springboks test now… better find another channel to watch, double time

    Hi robzim, yeah Edward Griffiths and others have done some good stuff with the club, building on some good professional foundation that Francois Pienaar helped establish when he was there many years ago. Only thing they use players from all over, I would like to see is what is their player development record like, things like how many players have come through their youth setup and gone on to play internationally.

    Juan de Jongh’s been kak today.

    You can never say that, the Cape Crusader faction will kill you.

    Nama and Rob will be very pissed too

    Cape Towns’ Chuck Norris never plays badly, the rest of the team are kak and it reflects on him 😛

    He would have beaten the Irish single handedly yesterday if HM only picked him.

    If the Bok management had the vision to pick both Chuck and his sidekick the Newlands Nano Wing, the Irish would have been vanquished

    I wonder how the defend and counter gameplan will go during SR next year.

    Hehehe

    @ Victoriabok:
    Hahaha…every player has a kak game every now and then. It is when you perform consistently kak, with the odd good game in-between, that you start to become a liability.

    Think Janneman, Pollard, Hougaard, Matfield, Jannie, Beast, Bissie, JdV. Vokkit, that’s more or less the whole Bok team. Wink

    JPP was good when he came on. Jannie remembered how to scrum as well.

    Ja flip ek glo dit, maar jy volhard, ek weet nie of ek so commited sou wees nie. Hoe is dit daar? sal jy ooit terug kom?

  • 176

    165 @ Victoriabok:
    I know. Wink

    The thing with Jannine is that yesterday’s performance in the scrums probably won’t be repeated on tour. England are renowned for their scrums so I think we’ll be in for a battle royal upfront next week.

    I hope our front row will be up for the task otherwise this tour can turn into a nightmare just 2 weeks in.

    Ek weet ons gaan sukkel teen die Engelse, ek was verbaas dat ons nie teen die Iere vasgeval het nie

    England is baie sterker

    Die enigste toets wat ons verseker gaan wen is teen Italie

    Dit was baie swaar in die begin

    Alles is vreemd en jy’t niks in gemeen nie, taal, kultuur, sport alles is anders, hulle ry tot aan die verkeerde Kant van die pad

    Ek glo nie ons Sal terugkom nie

    Ons het laasmaand ons Burgerskaptoets geskryf, ons wag net vir die seremonie

    Dan is ons amptelik ook Kanadose
