Beeno 1 I hope you are proven correct with your trust in Rassie and his management team.
Firstly he is a loud mouth always going overboard with his objections and squealing about how this ref and that ref are "wrong or biased" against the Springboks.
Sure I am not happy with some of the calls as well but the Springboks have also benefited with many a dubious calls going their way.
Secondly he is joined at the hip with his Bok coach and the other "Goons"resulting in the Springbok standard of play being poor and misguided under their control.
He actually earned his ban after the video he produced about the officials (bias and so called bad calls) and has since earned another yet another two game suspension.
At one stage I hoped that he would lift the Springboks to win the WRC, which he did but since then the standard and type of rugby delivered by the Boks has become boring and weak.
Sure he was a good player and manager at one stage but it appears that he has lost that touch and charm with many a rugby supporter.
Time for a change in the Springbok management squad starting with him.
I know many supporters are gloating about the game today but just remember this is an Italian team who are bottom of the six nations year in year out.
Sure the Boks did run the ball today and had a better game all round BUT it was against Italy.
He and his team of goons in management have done zero since the RWC to improve or select young players with talent to fill the spots that should have been vacated by the OLD GUNS.
Next week will be the big test for Rassie and his squad of....
