I noticed the performance of Bok team has deteriorated the past decade. Is that true?

I'm just feeling that our Boks spends just as much time as other teams in training and playing at venues near or at sea level. So, the advantage of playing at altitude (Loftus, Ellis Park and Bloemfontein) is lost. Our team therefore suffers the same as other overseas teams.

Interesting point Blikkies. I was thinking the ABs were into their second week of play up north …perhaps a bit more comfortable at altitude.

The All Blacks do better than other teams at altitude. It might be because they are so fit. 
They used to also benefit playing in SuperRugby on the highland

The underhanded tactics you guys come up with to win a match is astonishing.

How about selecting on merit ... and proper coaching?

An actual game plan.

Wouldn't that be a breath of fresh air.
