Former Springbok player beaten up after Boks-All Blacks Test in Mbombela

[TheChamp]

Former Springbok center Grant Esterhuizen has told of his being assaulted outside a night club in Mbombela following last Saturday’s rugby Test match in the Mpumalanga city.

The 46-year-old, who played seven Tests for the Springboks in 2000 and turned out for the Lions and Bulls, said he and some friends visited a club in the city following the Springboks’ 26-10 win against the All Blacks in Mbombela Stadium on Saturday night.

“We were standing outside (the club) and this one guy comes to me and says he feels like he wants to hit me,” Esterhuizen told JacarandaFM on Wednesday morning.

From drinking way to much with him in his springbok days.
He isn’t a fighter but he is a very flirty social guy. Can think he rubbed someone the wrong way by being friendly.

Sad that people see friendly people as flirts. We see it at the gym these days ( i’m old don’t party anymore) you can’t be friendly. Some girls think you are flirting with their men and some guys think you are flirting.

Resting B face is a thing.

46 Years old and visiting a night club? Come on man, there comes a time in your life when you realise that jumping up and down on a dance floor makes you look like a d00s.

If you going to a pub and play in the backs, take your prop mate as backup.

 

[NarrowBandFtw]

that's what you get for renaming places willy nilly

if you told people you're going clubbing in Nelspruit they would know you will get f-ed up and warn you

but clubbing in Mbombela sounds all fine, alas, the people are still the same kommin

Yeah well if you jump up and down instead of dancing you going to look like a d00s.

The best option is to avoid bars entirely because there will always be someone that is offended by you just being there. That is bar life. Prepare to be disappointed, mugged or assaulted.

Drinking in a public establishment past 6/7 pm is when things start going downhill.

I enjoy visiting my local, but I'm out of there when the sun goes down.

At rugby stadiums it goes downhill the moment you enter the arena. I was at a morning match many years ago between Bulls and Crusaders. Take my seat next to my friends and drunkard taps me on the shoulder. "I heard you want to moer me" and kept bugging me the entire friggin match. Another drunkard moered him and his girlfriend at closing time. Loftus ftw.

Fair point. I watched the Lions vs Stormers at Ellis Park, 3pm afternoon kick off, and approaching the stadium (I had just passed through the gates), some guy in a Stormers' jersey is hanging over the railing on one of the walkways and shouting obscenities at Lions fans with his friends trying to pull him back from the railing. I have no idea how the rest of his day went as the Lions have their own gif fans and he was in the wrong stadium to be getting clever.

I promise you, those cool moves you think are dancing, make you look like a d00s.

Now now. You're being a d00s.
