Ja, we've been close so many times...I still prefer Rassie's "tactic" ( ;-) of slipping a match in the group stages...it makes the odds better.

Glad Markram is finally doing stuff of substance. He owes it to us after averaging poorly for almost 8 years and yet the selectors keep the faith.

I haven't seen such a biased and ignorant statement since the two-time World Rugby Player of the Year was described as a talentless plodder.

His aggressive, solid play sets the tone for the Proteas batting. And Rickleton is flourishing as well, establishing himself as a quality international number 3.
