If.we.stick.with.these.chops.we.are.going.to.lose


Simple as that ...... Aplon, Januarie, Kirchner, Olivier, CJ and BJ = not Bok level rugby players ! Wake the fsck up and realise that coaching staff or p1ss off.
 
58 Pienaar has made a massive difference sinced coming on. For the first time in two weeks the Boks start to show promise with ball in hand as Steyn is able to get his runners away.

Only one in there I agree with. Aplon is still a young one and needs time to grow, no better place than on the field. Kirchner... you kidding me right?
 
And McCaw gets his 2nd official warning ..... un-fscking-real bs !!!!!!

And then they fall over the fscking ball and get the turn over ...... disgusting !!!!!

I'm so pissed off I don't care what happens for the rest of the game. We need a ref who has some brains to realise what the AB forwards are doing.

you're blind if you think that only Januarie out of those I mentioned is a weak link ...... almost everyone in this thread has said similar things of almost the exact same players. Kirchner over Steyn .... ja right :rolleyes:

I never said he is above Francois ;)

Francois aint in the team because of other reasons. So who do you put in Kirchner's place then if Steyn is not available?
 
I might not like Septic Bladder much but at least got rid of those referees for the rest of the World Cup. I think the Irish referee should be 'suspended' for 6 months for such rubbish refereeing will the IRB do anything? I doubt it.
 
Poor performance by our coaching team.

Most countries would die for the players at our disposal.

Here's a tip:

Get habana and spies into space. Its quite laughable both players are going to be called average when we know with the right gameplan they are world beaters. Spies needs a staffie infront of him to do the hard work. If spies gets sucked into the hard grind he disappears and without time and space he is mostly rubbish.

Tip 2:

Playing the worlds slowest scrumhalf is not good.

Tip 3:

Kicking is not good when the world slowest scrumhalf can't kick.

Tip 4:

Put John Smit on a diet.

Tip 5:

Give "rocket launcher" steyn a phone call.

Tip 6:

Huh, why is our inside centre playing wing?

Tip 6:

Ban the intercept try for a few games.

I fully agree with the bold parts.

I'm sad to say this but I think for as long as PDV is coach of the Boks, Frans won't be back. They had a huge clash of heads and Frans then come over to for the Wales tests under duress. From what I understand he has completely removed himself now from Springbok selection. (I stand to be corrected on this though)

The Boks did play a little better though, and NZ were playing with 16 men on the field, oh sorry, that was the ref. But ja, SA did not exactly cover themselves with glory, and what makes matters worse is that DeVill-does does not seem to be able to pick up that there is a problem. It looks like it is a case of inheriting a good side and then when it comes time for building one's own side up, well, being really rubbish at it.

This was mentioned when he started the job and everyone except one person on here said: "Wait till he needs to start replacing players then we'll see if he is as good as you all make him out to be". This is clearly what is happening now. He is also losing focus when it comes to the players. There is some serious issues within the team and they just try and sweep it under the carpet. Players are very unhappy. You can see they don't have that brotherness about them they had 2 years back.

Yip, it is the coaches job to build a team, not just select players, it's more then that. He has to get them gelling and motivated as a group playing as one. I don't think he is doing this. I guess it's going to be another three or four years of crappy Springbok rugby again.
 
So while we are pointing fingers and making accusations about what some people said and what others said, why is it that I am reading a couple of reports that make a fair bit of mention about the Boks tactical kicking game not being up to scratch... now is it not the role of the flyhalf, especially one who is supposedly the best to ever set foot on a rugby field, to dictate territory, and play, with his tactical kicking?
