Easy with the personal attacks folks. There is a line between sporting banter and personal attacks/insults.
I apologize. I can't take this negativity for your own country.

I'll be embaressed if I cant even support my own country.

I'm out.

Hopefully Meyer has finally gotten it through his thick skull that THIS is how the Boks need to play.

There's zero evidence that they would've sustained it throughout the tournament when they couldn't do i towards the end. After changes everything was disorganised again.

It takes time and HM needed a 30 day camp with around 45 players in his pool to bed that system in months ago. Right now it's too late, so they will mess themselves up if they adopt it in camp on the eve of the tournament. How they played in the last few minutes how they will continue to play by default.

How can you not appreciate what All Black pressure entails? The Boks did what they needed to in the last 10 and pulled a win out of the bag.

Waste of time trying to reason with someone with no knowledge or appreciation for the sport.

You don't have to respond to every post....

When/where it gets out of hand the mods will step in.

Too late for what? You seriously think the top SA players cannot adapt to different match tactics? Strangely enough these rugby players tend to have more talent, brains and intelligence than you give them credit for.

He actually didn't. I share his comments. It gets tiresome to go into a thread and you read round of continuous crap there and nothing gets done about it. When you voice your opinion, your posts gets edited, but the rest of the crap is still there. I don't blame faniedry at all.

Trust me I do. I watched every minue of the IRE-NZ game last year. They couldn't do it. But we're at home, we were cruising from the first minute, completely dominant, that situation should never have happened. Ask yourself what you would have said had it ended 24-25 and Lambie's kick dropped short. The fact tha Boks won should not erase the glaring shortcomings.

Boks are not Ireland, they're the 2nd best team at home. To say what you have said and leave it at that, is to admit the Boks are indeed inferior and 2nd favourites to the ALL Blacks at home. Not the overbearing impression in this forum.

The edits were to take out quoted bits that were deleted, as well as the responses.

Chill....

Support those losers? You kidding, right?

Win, lose or draw. I sincerely believe you should always support your country and be proud of the guys picked to play for them. They don't select themselves and deserve our unreserved backing :)
