    As for the Bulls being the biggest scumbags, well done sir, you should read your own post and apply
    Bulls don't have any talent up in pretoria, they just import their team from the cape and put on a blue jersey and call themselves a bull. what happened to the talent up north. did Naas Botha stop reproducing laaities

    For incase you missed it it is called the Professional era. Then again why not start a thread on this as this is really OT but with an attention span like yours I am just surprised you can finish a post.

    How many players were born and bred in the WC in the Stormers line up? How many Sharks in KZN?

    And who needs talent when you have money?

    Stevie I know this is hard for you to get your head around but maybe before you post take a second and think about what you are going to post

    OP

    I do smell a bit of jealousy

    I noticed that when Jantjies was aiming at the posts there was no booing as far as I could hear.

    He does have a point but he stated it wrong. Bulls have all the money in SA rugby. No one can compete with them. Good for them but I please ask you to take of your Bulls glasses and put on your SA rugby view ones. Stock piling guys around the same age 5 6 per position is not only wasting these guys development with limited game time its keeping the player pool uneven. We can't really disagree with NZ when they say NZ conference are the strongest as they make sure the pool is spread even and all 5 franchises are competitive. You do not see them around forums moaning about poaching or throwing banter around to who was born where and grew up where. No they compliment each others teams as they know how its structure and all 5 teams are competitive. Unfortunatetly in South Africa we are too hung up on provincialism than to see the bigger picture. Its also a shame to see that one of the great things of South Africa rugby is not what it was and is dying. That is the great Bulls forward pack and scrum we use to know.

    They been so busy stockpiling the backline tallent that they forgot that you need a good pack to feed them. Poor Steyn gets flogged left and right but he is starting to play against a losing pack. What 10 does well behind a losing pack. Will Carter shine behind one? We will never know because he never played behind one.

    If you buy the best no problem but give them play time at least or loan some out. We do not want to see our promising youngsters end up in a England shirt because the Bulls let them fell thru the cracks

    I am a Stormers supporter but I am really disappointed and shocked how their forwards got a hiding. No wonder Carter looked so good and poor Morne look if he is lost. He got ball with a pack going backwards what is the poor guy suppose to do but struggle.

    The real problem is SARU. if they put enough structures in place like the AB and Aussies then there will be less guys leaving the country, players getting recognized, players getting more game time, players get paid,etc. Why can't we create a team/conference where all these guys who are on the fringes that we know of that has hidden talent play in a team for them to develop irrespective of the results, but gaining experience. other bigger unions should be allowed to have 1st choiche player with a youngster as backup on the bench. this will even it out so that everyone gets enough game time and not lost to some overseas club. SARU needs to pull finger and start thinking of ways to retain our best players and youngsters.

    But these guys are contracted to a union and not much SARU can do. I would love to see the 5 Franchises have their 22 players and where the best guys who do not have a place gets put in a pool where the go and play where there is a spot for them.

    I would also like for us to have our Currie Cup back. The Bulls probably hope that SA team Meyer selected are nowhere near the Championship squad cause they will miss the final again. Winning the Currie Cup ain't something to brag about these days
