transformation is about matching everything 100% to the actual demographics. So GVT should be about 90% black which i believe they are.

But, they cannot then say sport must be 50/50.
At least they need to be consistent with their stupidity.

then we should say "dankie baas". If the mob wants freeBEEs to Beijing the mob gets it. No use in complaining.

we need more paraplegics and women in the 100M mens team
Careful, otherwise they will demand that sports be 90/10 according to the country's demographics.

Let them - at least that would be honest.
Wonder if we will be allowed to compete under no national flag? If your country cant or will not send you can u still compete, there must be some way the olympics which is all about sports and not Politics can resolve this...
Or maybe we can strike a deal with Lesotho or Swaziland to represent them

Anyone foresee South Africa being banned from international sports again because we can't flipping sort out our race issues?

Write a letter to the American embassy saying you will join their Army in Iraq. They will make you a citizen very quick and by the next Olympics you could represent AmericaWonder if we will be allowed to compete under no national flag?

Hey lifes not perfect ya know
This is madness!!!
From what they have said, it DEFINATELY means that our national soccer team needs to be 50% white.
I guess if you arent black or white you WILL NOT be selected to go to the olympics. What if you are half black and half white? There is no provision for this.
This is a little off topic, but here is an interesting read on where Governments policies are taking us: http://business.iafrica.com/news/983580.htm

You wont have to do that.
Perform well and they will come knocking at your door with millions of dollars thrown in your direction.
If you arent an athlete and you want to head to the USA, then one could consider your approach.

If the government goes ahead with this, then "whites" in South Africa should boycott. I am starting to feel the same about rugby- they could set up a team which is not based on colour quotas as a rival team to the 'official' SA team. Who do you think other countries will want to play in international fixtures, the 'representative' team or the team based on merit?
