I've posted this before, but this is absolutely shocking. 11 test matches in and we have a puppet with no puppet master running us into the ground. 


Not sure those player roadmaps or team KPIs are working

There is no ways the players have any respect for Neinaber as a coach, not with that shocking record If Rassie does not make a full comeback he and Neinaber must fuck off

Your useless players are getting fucking bodied. What the duck can Erasmus do with that? Shitty skills and so fucking stupid. I pray so hard that you get a new coach! XD

When the team is winning, a limited game plan of kicking with strong defence is acceptable as a fan.

However, when a team is losing, it needs to be in a rebuilding phase. Trying new players, and combinations and working on weak areas. It is at least entertaining to see them playing a more expansive style, even if they are losing.

The Bok umbrella defence is also not what it was in 2019. Teams have worked out more ways to get around it and score more tries, so the Boks need to be scoring more tries themselves.
Also if a player misses a one-on-one tackle (like Delande) within the umbrella defence, it is harder to make cover tackles. 

Losing with a few minutes to go when it is obvious to hold onto the ball, and then kicking away possession is pathetic. It rings of poor coaching and a lack of confidence in keeping the ball in hand. Backline players look like they have never met each other. 

The Boks need to work on their attack. At the moment, it relies too much on individual brilliance of players instead of planned team attacking movements. (Other than up-and-under(s)). 

If the opposition does well in the air, the Bok attack is very blunt. 

Delande is an Achilles heel, but unfortunately, Pollard seems to have forgotten his attacking game as well.
Without Willie Leroux, the Boks can't put the ball down the backline or create try-scoring opportunities in the backs.
Elton Jantjies needs to get more game time, as does Willemse at 12. Jantjies on his worst days is a mare, but on his best days he is very good at getting his backline running. 

Mapipimi has a strike rate probably higher than Habana's, so if the Boks choose a player like this- they need to play to his strengths, than using his for just defence or chasing up and under.

Saarkbok, what zol are you smoking. Why on earth should Jantjies be selected? He was so poor the last time he played. 

I woul far rather shift Willemse to 10, bring in Grant Esterhuizen at 12 as both Am and Esterhuizen played at the Sharks together. Not to mention that he was the stand out 12 in the premiership with a string of man of the match awards. 

Bring Willie back to 15 and give Moody a cap on the other wing

They were about the same in 2019 when they lucked themselves to a WC trophy.
