I must admit, this is one bok selection that baffles me. The only thing that come to mind is that Rassie is so invested in transformation that I smell a quota here.
I couldn't find anything of Moerat on web nor can I recall any man of the match performance that he has had. Even when you look at bias player ratings, he still scores average to low.
Neither do I see him actually win line outs, drive mauls or being an enforcer.
I definitely think Rassie need to dial it back a bit now
Erasmiss cannot dial it back, the more players of colour he picks, the better for his status with the ANC….
Very strangely I can also not find a highlight video for Moerat.
Once I saw him carrying the Ball strongly for the Stormers and that is about all she wrote.
I wonder what is the ratio between white and players of colour at the moment?
We do have quite a bit of good black and coloured players. But also a few that is not up to standard.
A lot of good white players just does not make it and have no other choice but to go overseas to play test Rugby there.
At least there they get picked on merit and there skin colour doesn’t matter.
On the surface all looks happy in Bok camp, but I am sure a lot of the players feel uncomfortable.
In any case it will carry on like this for some time to come….Merit should be the main way of picking players and SA Rugby should always strive to get that right.
If I make a highlight video of myself, can I apply to be Springbok captain?
He is not an international standard. Players need to earn the man of the match performances a few times per season at lower levels of the game to be considered for test rugby.
He is not that bad - he is not the next best cock around but I’d take him over powder puffs like Mostert, Nortje and Orie
He is better than Orie

Not unless you lose weight
Sorry chippo, this is not the platform for your weird gimp fetish videos, but go ahead and send it to Rassie.
Neither does Moerat come up in the stats.
I'm really curious what is his battle stats.
I hate these race based policies. It devalues the game. We have way better locks and leaders than him
David, regarding Nortje....
he may not be the largest oke in Pretoria... but he's really tough.
I took time to watch him this weekend. And I must say he did impress me.
Yes he is a better version of Mostert - more skilful but for me lacks grunt - there are better test candidates about starting with Ruben v Heerden
Na, he does have "grunt". He may not have Eben's biceps, but he is helluva strong and gets stuck in to the rucks.
I do feel that skill is just as important as grunt.
Just ask the singles near you!
Crap he has never imposed himself physically and never will
David, i'll leave it at that.
its always hard discussing rugby with you because if you disagree, its always crap or bullshit or insults.
So childish! pfft
Fuck off
my point exactly...
Angry pervert!
So how would you okes rate Moersegat after this weekend captaincy that only lasted 40 min.
I think he knocked it in 3 times and then gave away penalty before he was subbed.
When I did see him carry the ball he got knocked backwards. So much for a bulky ball carrier.
At least with Nortje he gets over the advantage line.
So many other players has + for meters where Moer has - for carries
And here is his stats
Carries 4 rank 18
tackles completed 2 rank 34
Turnovers lost 1 rank 8
Turnovers 0
Meters carried 1 Rank 32
Lineout won 3, Nortje 11
Total tackles per minute 0.04 rank 39
Penalties conceded 3 rank 1
Worse player on the park. Don't even think Italy would take him.
If Tassie persist with him then I know it is political and probably Alexander or someone from WP is pushing him onto the team.
He should be dropped immediately
Meters carried 1 out of 4? !!!!
Moerat should not be captain.
He's a decent squad player, on merit. But definitely not a starter.
Salamander is almost not even worth discussing….if you take his stormers team mate Ruben V Heerden you can’t help but asking what the hell is Rassie thinking?!
And the answer is clearly political…Moeras did absolutely nothing of note and he is only there to appease the ANC clan members….
Nortje is playing above average Rugby and always more than willing to put his body on the line….
Mostert is the same, hard working and durable….
Moerat is a good player but not better than Ruben v Heerden, Ruan Vermaak, Jason Jenkins, JF v Heerden, Andre Smith or Cobus Wiese
So on merit he is way down the pecking order
Id take him over Mostert, Orie, Nortje etc

…….
Care to rephrase?
Dave…
the gift that keeps on giving.
he just makes it too easy for me to “poke” fun at him.
Haha, even Saffex acknowledge that taller doesn't mean bigger cocks according to anatomy......or
He used that word so much on his phone that it is stored to memory. Got to hate AI when it outs you like that.
No man Saf!
I literally laughed out loud when i read that.
Clean it up!
For what it is worth, like Chip said... he is a decent squad player. But in my opinion he certainly isnt a starter.
We have so many fantastic locks lying around. It would be a sin overlook them.
In other news, JJ van der Mescht is keen to return to SA to give his Springbok ambitions another go. This after leaving Durban because of an apparent lack of work ethic.
Lets hope he fulfills his potential!
Dave knows exactly who the first and second best cocks in his area are...
Plum...
My best best best was "dogging near me".
Showed my mates. They were in hysterics!
Dave is single, and lives on his own, I can assure you, his browser history is on another level.
...and you know that he doesn't know how to clear it, which is why his predictive text is as shocking as it is.
100%
He's so filthy, he'd (proudly) pass as a pom!
I clearly need to stay of pornhub:)
Im single???
Dating your hand doesn't count!
Well chip chip are you implying you keep your hands in your pockets?
Well your mum makes sure i keep them there!
Chip chip with all due respect can you please grow up and leave my lovely mother out of your posts
Much appreciated
You asked so nicely!
sure. I will.
