Dont forget Honiball...
Of all the negatives I took out of Saturday, none trumps the EP home ground booing the opposition (at first) and then the Boks (Steyn) later. If that is the kind of conduct they enjoy, I see no merit for the Kings getting anything but the short end of the Super15 stick. Seriously. I refuse to think that all fans from Cape areas are like this but the evidence points in another direction.
As for the game, I cannot name a single player who had anything above a mediocre day out. Picking on one or the other is simply not enough. I read a post above where someone took comfort out of Olivier being average. Average. Is that the best we can expect at this level? Thankfully, he is going to Japan - and as I said before, I hope they teach him how to pass. We really need to up our game, sure, but I see no reason why professionals should bother entertaining a crowd whose manners dictate booing as a means of support.
MickeyD - how bad was this at the stadium? Were people around you booing? When I have seen it, I have asked the low-class rubbish why they do that and find middle ear infections to be the primary cause.
Bebamos y divirtámonos que mañana moriremos.
Melior morior bellator, quam ago profugus.
Nemo saltat sobrius.
