Tell me ... what do they say? Better still can we go post there and raise hell?

Depends, You must read their live comments during a game, Hillarious. You could post if you register but have a good chance of getting banned quick. If they are ahead by half time they would rip us apart and draw us in the mud and then when we start gaining the tune will slowly change and the abuse directed to their own untill by the end when we win they will do exactly the opposite by ripping their own apart and look to create excuses why they lost by alluding we use drugs and cheated etc. etc.

so nothing we would do here ourselves :D
 
There you go, as predicted some of the anti-Ruan brigade are already jumping on the bandwagon and rooting for his failure. Unfortunately for them any try that slips through Ruan's defences would in all likelihood have come through Morne's first!

And it's rather bizarre because I cannot recall getting a "lashing" from anyone. :)

But perhaps let's rather keep Ruan vs Morne out of this thread.

Lance you honestly amaze me, i do not recall anyone saying ruan was a crap player, i do recall us saying MS is better. So i am going to chop of your horse legs.

/chop chop
 
It's an exciting prospect Ruan at 15 yes but the coaches are doing him no favours playing him out of position and especially at test level.

As talented and versatile a player as Ruan is fullback is not his preferred position and the same way Frans Steyn has battled to find his position within the team setup, Ruan is in the same boat.

I don't care how talented a player is DON"T PLAY HIM OUT OF POSITION IN A TEST MATCH!!!!

Os Du Randt was probably the greatest loosehead of all time but you wouldn't play him at flank...

Well I would.... Kobus Wiesse at inside centre, james dalton on the wing :D

With Wiesse at centre, you, could move the outside centre to fullback.
And have some cover for Ruan.

ROFL :D

Think you will be getting a PM-shlt storm from lance in 3...2......1..... :p

Do you not know that next to the Chuck Norris' photo on Lance's dresser there is a (only slightly smaller one) of Ruan?

Do you think lance does something a lil more with ruans picture i wonder :D

/shudder

Guys, get your todgers out of Morne's choc starfish and grow up a little. ;)

Actually dump Morne and perhaps you two should get a room together as you seem to be enjoying each other's company quite a lot here.
 
Lance lighten up man we is only playin with you :D. Not in the way you wanna play with ruan though :D

Anyways cannot wait for tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!! If we win the tri nations should be wrapped up.

As was I... hence the " ;) " after my recommendation :)

Looking forward to the game too... just hope Morne does not bugger up AGAIN (hee hee ehee eheee)
 
LOL i also hope he does not bugger up cause we will never hear the end of it.

Come on boys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BEAST

My fav player. I still want to go and watch a shark game just to hear the crowd shout BEAST.
 
Good to see we are all in a good mood :)

Can not wait till tomorrow!

Think we will miss Francios big boot from the back, but Ruan is a much better attacking option and his kicking (please work tomorrow) is also good as long as there are not posts he has to put the ball through.

Glad to see PdV is thinking ahead and making a plan so that we are ready when Francios and Jean bugger off over seas :D

Fixed

A try conceded a few minutes after he replaced FS. Where was he? LOST!

He was covering the outside as he should have been as fullback while a gaping hole was left by Morne in defence which allowed Giteau to run straight through.... is this the same event you were referring to?
