'Skin colour does not matter': Bongi Mbonambi on the new Springboks

[EADC]

Yes, Bongi, and you are the only one who believes that... If it was not for colour, the No2 jersey would be worn by Marx and the 16 would belong to either Schalk Brits or Akker van der Merwe... On merit, your captain wouldn't even make the squad...
If it was not for loyalty, WP players like Etsebeth and de Allende wouldn't be in the team either...

This guy gets it those ****ing quotas.

You right, no one cares about colour. we do CARE about performance. We want the best 15 on the field.
And those selected 15 must be there because they are the best of the best of the best.

I’m hoping ShowMax platform uses it as a marketing campaign for the finals though not sure if their platform can handle it so maybe not.

Was awesome seeing the diverse crowd and team last game. Hope we win vs Wales tomorrow.

i hope so too.. in 2007 when we won the world cup we beat England! i cannot wait for us to beat them again!!

Oh irony

Non white players:

England : 11 out of 23
South Africa: 10 out of 23

I was told that the All Blacks can still make it to the finals.
They will have to buy tickets though.
Hehe.

Joburg Bokke fans were pretty mixed

And the springboks even have gay fans (not only for Pieter-Steph)
