Letter to Jake White



Yeah Jake...

It had nothing to do with you leaving established stars at home; picking a flyhalf and centre at wing; a wing at centre; a lock at flank; a 36-year-old lock; a lock who found it difficult to run against the blustery wind; a flank who hadn't played a single game since a long injury layoff; a scrumhalf who should be playing prop in a dwarf team; a hooker who is about sixth on the list of hookers in SA and a captain who is hardly even going through the motions with you purely to pick up longevity milestones; and being so farking stubborn that you refuse to play and openside or fetching flank being the only international coach who sees no value in the fetching role.

So Jake you're right. It's not your fault. It's SARU's fault. It's the provincial coaches' fault. It's the wind's fault. It's the players' fault. It's the media's fault. It's the supporter's fault. It's the man in the moon's fault.

It has nothing to do with you Jake. You're a genius. A humble man. A rugby god. No one knows more about the game than you.

Jake you'd be a joke if what you're doing wasn't so sad and embarrassing

You shamed Bok history and the jersey by putting that team onto the field. Such an auspicious occasion and such a historical jersey that guys like Matfield, Bakkies, Os, Du Preez, Montgomery and Paulse should have been, and would have been, honoured to wear...
 
Feel sorry for Jake White, can't help remembering how he helped rugby out of that dip that Strauli dug us into.

But the thrashing we got against Irish was awful, can understand the anger about team selection.
