He is physical enough for the role but has no brains and I don’t trust him to take the high ball. He does not play it clever, just wants to take people out. Gives away far too many penalties 

I’m not convinced

It looks like a disastrous team to me.    It may be that the Sprngboks are resting most of their main team and is using the scraps to play the Argentnina team.   

The selection of the backline is seriously defective.     Elton Jantjies, Fransie and with Morne on the bench is looking for a disaster since all three are poor defenders.    Fact is that only Willemse, Fassi and Nkosi are decent backline players - but inside of them are the braindead players. 

As to the forwards, the situation is that amongst the forwards only Etzebeth, De Jager and Kolisi   are test level players  - with the rest looking like an experimental team with minimal talent.    In any event   that lot will be extremely lucky if they beat the Pumas on Saturday.

Jasper Wiese had his best game. Not spectacular, but solid. 
Not a Duane Vermuelen effort, but his best yet.

Nope I expected us to win these games at home….especially after we bent the refs. Imagine the ref missing the Marx crawl….maybe the Bargie coach should do a tape.

The above is their top team  and they aare going to give us headaches.   Delguy is a star wing with plenty of pace.  De La Fuente is going to be all over Steyn and  Sanchez is one of the best flyhalfs in the world.  Pablo Matera is a real star as well.    I see Montoya is now their Captain    Lavaninni is a brute of a player and Etzebeth will ahve to stay on the field - otherwise th locks will be brutalized by the two Argentininans.

After seeing that team I will be surprised if the Springboks  win the first test.

Sure any objective person would have  reservations - but I did mention also that Nienaber and Earsmus are brilliant in reading and understanding tactics and they may get a win on that basis.   

They did the trick again.   One wonders what they are going in team selecit on against the Aussies and especially the AB's.

The worst assessment of the week:-

 "I think Morne was a ‘9’ myself…..outstanding composure."

Morne did bugger-all  and the village idiot want to give  him a 9.   Maybe if he did not make two poor ball handover kicks he may get a 4,5 rating.  .

You are both a crybaby and a fool when it comes to Erasmus.   You must really be disappointed that the Springbok won against he Pumas.   You may have to wait for the next 5 tests  to find something solid to criticize Erasmus.   LMAO .

Wiese repeated the third Lions test, but cut out the errors. Simples. 

Frans in defence was massive. Totally outclassed Damian again.

The Boks overall didn't create very much. The gameplan is still kick and wait for the opposition to knock it on. That was where the Boks had the edge. Los Pumas got over the gainline at will and outplayed us ball in hand.

I am going to watch he game again and do a summary of the "great achievements" of  Steyn and the issue of performance of De Jager speciffically - and then there was  Mozart posted about  Morne with his vast nothingness to prove it was accorded a 9.    You know they may be better thane expected because they perform on  average 34 and 36 year olds would produce - in tets they would be poor to average and was really ineffective. .

As to the  new version of attacks on Erasmus - it is quite hilarious.   He now suddenly is Harassment  -  must admit it is really funny, becaus e both KI and  Mozart are from a coaching perspective really braindead.   .

Morné's brilliant-cut ball for the try was something we have been missing. We used to have that in our arsenal. Morné has still got it.

Liability, yet has been a key part of the best attacking Super rugby and Bok sides of the past thirty years. Don't you ever get tired of being wrong. 

"But hey ho he can kick whooo hoooo"

Set up a try yesterday, has a high try percentage that Pollard, Lambie, Janjties, Honnibal, Butch, Pretorius, Goosen, Naas. Has better attack stats - defenders beaten and clean breaks than all but Pollard (haven't reviewed the figures for this head-to-head, but am confident in Pollard on this). You sure can pick a lost cause Unteromlett (do get your own line, I know I should be flattered that you copied me, but it's rather dull and immature). 

Some attacking references: 2009 against the All Blacks, waltzed through the defence for a try. Pumas 2014, Two lovely cut passes to free the backs for tries. Wales 2013, sets Habana free for a Bok breakout and try. Australia 2011, off a scrum, steps inside Beale, breaks down the right and sets JP free into space. USA 2015, in only a few minutes he puts Kriel away into space on three occasions for a Bok overlap - Kriel messed all of them up. France 2009, fields high ball deep in Bok territory, smashes Mermoz and breaks out. New Zealand 2012, the dummy and step in the second half. Australia 2015, the chase down and pressure of Toomua in the Wallaby 22 and the beautiful flat pass to Willie for out try. So many references, it's hard to know where to begin. You see? Good players have standout moments. The Duds don't have these moments. No standout plays. Ironically, after years of Lambie being lauded as the best attacking 10, it was a kick that would be his biggest moment. The plastics broke out in victorious victory cry, unwittingly exposing themselves in the process. Their argument was defeated.

When I ask for references, I am doing two things: 1.Encouraging you to get off your backside and do some research or watch the game more carefully. 2.To see what you actually know. I am challenging your knowledge. If you come up with blanks, I have you dead on the canvas. On each occasion, I already have the facts at hand.

Saffex, I feel I have to explain something to you . . . again.

There is an alternative univerese out there where Morne Steyn is a superstar, Pieter-Steph du Toit is a weak and ineffective plodder, Zane Kirchner runs in circles around Israel Folau, Damian de Allende is a crippled neanderthal retard and Patrick Lambie is the antichrist.

The problem is, the people who defend these views (Omlett and Omellete) do so with a mixture of spite, one-upmanship, deceit, childishness and posturing . . . (but mainly complete and utter delusion) . . . so it's pointless ever contradicting them or disputing any of their laughable notions because it drags the entire forum down to their level.

You don't seem to get this. You're arguing with these puffed up fools as if they're capable of a sensible or cohesive reply . . . one that doesn't involve some stupidity spoken in German (spoken poorly at that) or else integrating xyz where x is the number of bottles of Chateau de Pretentioux Moffie drinks every day, y is the number of times he calls attention to his visionary prophecies and z is the number of times he gets egg all over his fat stupid face on a daily basis . . . without knowing it!

The prevailing rugby views on this board (in terms of sheer numbers anyway) are due to a combination of posters too servile and obsequious to object or disagree with O&O; posters like me who don't believe it's worth the melodramatic hysteria we get from the pair of them  . . . along with the mindless stupidity of ou Maaik and Baboon-ou which falls into a very unique category of its own. 

Either have a laugh or else validate their alternate little rugby universe with some level of credibility or relevance. You persist in choosing the latter.

 ‘Allende is a crippled Neanderthal retard’….a little harsh, more like ADD (I use it instead of the now popular ADHD because there is certainly no hyperactivity present). Still  I doubt you want him solving your differential equation.

And speaking of ADD how’s your AA experience after 15 years, are they still helping you with you addiction issues….you know, the ones you whined about on this Board. Still sober at least every second day?

Nope never been anti our players bar the odd one or two. Never rated Jake and was fully behind him getting the sack as he was shit at the time I have never been anti Schalk he was a quality player just never a 6 I loved Butch Monty like Os and Matfield were great in their day but I have no time for players being selected when they are past their prime - much like Frans now I am the biggest supporter of SA rugby evidenced by my extensive lists of the SA players I rate highly You guys are the complete opposite dishing negatives on some of our best players and on a coach who’s record is unrivalled It’s embarrassing

Wrong you are simply a win at any costs guy Dave. Contrary to you, Pervert and many others I have been talking the need for return to Bok strengths….defence/set pieces. For years! I was attacked for those views

So now we have that and surprise….we are winning again! Suddenly what I was asking for is nirvana. Only it’s not. Not for a moment did I visualize this boring Bools up and under crap.

If we had a halfway competent attacking game off the base we always should have had….we can take the ABs. But our fans are so into if god gives you a finger don’t take the whole hand…..that we are satisfied with scraping through.

I’m not. I come from the school of rugby played in the Cape, where the Ikeys and Marie’s regularly produced Bok back lines.

What we doing is not enough to make the Boks world number one….no matter what the rankings say.

Yes, we were accused of liking dinosaur ten man rugby. Balance. What the Boks have under Josè isn't sustainable. Under Snor, I said the same thing, it isn't sustainable. In 2009 I was criticised by Bok fans for being pessimistic. Look what happened on tour at the end of the year. What is it about Africans and an inability to understand sustainability. Too compound matters, they can't help looking for a reason to gloat and feel superior. Little nation syndrome. How many quality teams have the Boks beaten? Not many. The better games from their opponents have ended mostly in defeats. The French test Louw saved and the Scots test were fine lines to being swept up north. A lack of perspective is going to end in tears for the plastics. It's the natural way of things.

Disagree Moz - we are mostly playing direct rugby but creating tries along the way You play what is in front of you. The way we thumps the Japs and England in the WC was impressive We played the boring kick and chance against the Lions as the opposition demanded it That won’t be the case when we play Oz and NZ We beat the Lions playing the Welsh semi - Rassie and co know how to beat Gatland If it ain’t broke don’t fix it
