When you have centres like Jean and de Jongh and cannot orchestrate linebreaks there is something very seriously lacking off the field. Over the years they'ce had some of the biggest names in the business and fared no better. Clearly Coetzee must go. And to think, he was supposed to be a backline expert. I cannot for the life of me recount one thing Fleck has done either; jobs for pals?

agree, fleck is a varsity cup coach that did well with UCT and all of a sudden he is a world class back line coach. Fleck was a shit player in his days. Good with ball in hand but not good for anything else. The guy had no creativity, how can they expect him to be in charge of a backline.

It's time for a change and you have to be blind not to see that. Home losses surely will force a change

with all the dramas at the stormers, i wonder if white regrets signing up with the sharks???
he stated his family was why he moved back to SA especially his sons and they all live in and near cape town.
wouldnt be surprised to see white jump ship, its in his professional nature.

One exit before a contract expires and you claim a trend. Unusually inaccurate stuff from you Sas.

@suntzu,
jump ship as in leave his team before his contract was up, or like the Boks when he didnt reapply for the position after the 2007 RWC.
despite all the going ons around whites depature and PDVs appointment, the fact was when SARU were taking on new applicants for the Boks in 2008 onwards, white chose not to reapply saying that he shouldnt have to. he may have had a case, but if his ego didnt get in the way, he could have at least applied and said he did everything he could, but he didnt.

Sasuke, I normally enjoy your comments but I think that you got this one wrong on Jake. They didn't give Jake a chance to re-apply. They hired the coach in December where as when Divvy contract ran out they waited until April. Jake should never have had to re-apply. They should have simply just extended his contract, why wouldn't you. He just won you the world cup and made your team number 1 in the world. But a lot of people had it in for him because he wouldn't bow to politics.
Rugby in SA are run by none rugby people and politicians.
