Dave is blatantly a chubby bunny.


Look at that pic on Chip's profile.


Who rocks that much turkey neck fat and isn't a porker?


If Dawie weighs 95kgs, and is 179cm(I believe that's how tall he said he is) tall, and is not muscular...because let's be honest...Dave doesn't lift any weights....


Here’s a quick breakdown:


  1. BMI (Body Mass Index):
  2. Formula = weight (kg) ÷ height² (m²).
  3. For 95 kg and 1.79 m: 95 ÷ (1.79²) ? 29.6.
  4. BMI categories:
  5. 18.5–24.9 = “normal”
  6. 25–29.9 = “overweight”
  7. 30+ = “obese”


  1. Interpretation:
  2. At 29.6, this person sits just under the obesity threshold.
  3. Since you noted they’re not muscular, the extra weight is likely from body fat rather than muscle mass.


  1. Synopsis:
  2. Medically, they’re at the upper end of “overweight”, bordering on obese.
  3. Practically, yes — they would generally be considered fat/overfat, unless there are unusual body composition factors.


?? Do you want me to also estimate body fat % range based on this profile (non-muscular, BMI ~29.6)?


Looks like ou Dawie is 0.4 bmi points away from being rated as clinically obese.


Just one more roomys!

It seems the science has spoken. If Maunjaro was playing today he’d rival Esterhozen for the world’s heaviest center. Granted he’d be giving up 6 inches.

Draad problem here is the stupid old fart is clutching at straws or better still just lying as he is about my height


He has not seen me in over 20 years so has no fucking idea what shape I’m in but he is so fucking stupid that he will continue to beat that old fat drum


But one thing we do know is the old prick is knock, knock, knocking on heavens door - there is no escaping that, no pause button


I’m mid 50’s and for the past 5 years have been in the best shape of my life - love my home gym - it’s my church - nothing beats a hard workout with the music up full blast


Beats the fuck out of knocking on heavens door


Buttplug you are by all accounts a skinny runt - a sad excuse for a man - you sound a little jealous that you are not a 95kg muscled real man?

That's like saying that any average is complete rubbish.


BMI is a population level tool.


So in Dave's case, do you think he is a body builder? Do you think he is an athlete? Considering he is mid 50s, he'd have to be on TRT and plenty of supplements to maintain an acceptable muscle/fat ratio.


Now, if Dave told us he was 30, working out 4 times a week and eating right...we could probably assume his muscle to fat ratio to lean more towards muscle than fat. But he's not, and it doesn't.

Best coach in the world?

He accepted the poisoned chalice known as Australian rugby. At first, he seemed destined to fail like his predecessors, but now he appears to be turning the ship around.

Australia still need more world-class players in key positions—particularly at fly-half and in the front row. However, as the team improves, it should attract better talent that might otherwise have opted for rugby league instead.

He managed to counter Rassie’s rush defence with clever pop passes over the top to the wing, or by using forwards peeling off the ruck to punch holes through the middle. The ball-carrying forward places the ball directly into the hands of a supporting runner, rather than passing it. This commits the defender and opens up a gap to break the line.

I’ve seen Ireland use this approach frequently with their backline, and it’s highly effective at creating clean breaks in tight spaces. It also reduces handling errors.

Their upcoming tests against the All Blacks will be a true measure of where they currently stand.

In my not so humble opinion he is the best rugby coach on the planet, he transformed bottom of the barrel nobodies into RWC contenders, consider also that Oz is severely hampered by playing numbers to realise and amazing achievement.

My point is he came into our backyard with a team just getting a bit of confidence and outscored Dr Lucky 60 points to 52….and 9 tries to 6, despite the superior resources Lucky had as his disposal. Are you too thick to grasp how unexpected that is.

And let's not forget that Australia were cheated out of a Lions series win.


...after everyone wrote them off last year.


On the one hand, Dave makes lists of 6 million players that could be Boks, obviously hyping our talent through the ceiling. But then pretends we have no/more or less talent than anybody else when telling us how amazing Rassie is compared to Schmidt.


So, does having oodles of hyper talent help, or doesn't it help, Dave. And do Ireland or Australia have the talent and players that we do?


Try thinking like a grown up, possessed of some logic, when you make your arguments.


Here, I'll help you. If Rassie coached Ireland or Australia, would he have won a WC? If Schmidt coached SA, would he have won a WC?


Does that help?

"I'm not one for bashing Erasmus, his record speaks for itself but Schmidt is an excellent coach as well."



Here, Chat helped with nice analogy for how i see Rassie.


The System-First Coach (Knife Maker Who Chooses a Metal for His Design)

This coach is like a bladesmith who has already designed a knife and now searches for whatever metal fits that blueprint. He doesn’t necessarily want the strongest or purest steel — just something that can be shaped into his predetermined design. The result is a knife that might function, but it will never cut at the highest standard, because the quality of the blade is capped by the quality of the chosen metal. Even the best design cannot make weak iron perform like hardened steel.


The Talent-First Coach (Knife Maker Who Starts With the Best Metal)

This coach begins with the finest steel available. His philosophy is that the blade’s strength lies in the quality of its material. Once he has the best metal, he forges a knife design around it, adapting his craft to bring out the steel’s natural advantages — hardness, sharpness, or flexibility. The result is a knife that not only suits its purpose but achieves a level of sharpness and resilience that no system-first approach can replicate.
