 Yip, maybe they "should" be but I can bet you Meyer will pick real players and that is why it "woun't" be.  What did your little friend Jantjies do to deserve a spot in the training group.  He is not even training material Francis was better than him so far this season.(Now you will swear at me and call me names..LOL - Just say you disagree it sounds better).  Even Catrakilis is way-way better than that coconut.  Wimpie van der Walt is where?

 

Some time ago you were saying with passion that Ebershon is too small and now he is big enough, hau baas!

Bismarck has not played a single game why is he there on reputation?  If so then Bakkies must also be there, nê  Kick him and put Fourie there.

Coetzee has not impressed at all - hide your politics and look at Luke - he had a storming game on the weekend - better than most SA loosies on display.

 KF catch a wake up. Francis has been piss poor in his last few games. He has been sorely exposed. Ebersohn is too small for test rugby, but Frans is injured so our options at 12 have dwindled and we have not seen the likes of Frans Venter, Tim Whitehead, Pat Howard and co at S15 level.

 

Wimpie is good, but not better than any of the loosies I have selected. A fit Bismark is a must, Fourie is no test hooker.

 You repleied ithout vloeking me, I like that.

A fit Bismarck is a must - I agree.

Fourie is an example because even he is better than a non-fit Bismarck.

Wimpie plays for my team that is why .. Bias... lol

What I am saying is that although you believe Jantjies has potential, currently he has been laying just as good or bad as Francis (who by the way is an average Vodacom player who got elevated because of injuries)

 

Lekka my bra!

You have a good training group there but there are some playes who really showed nothing positive in Super 15.  Those include -

Jantjies, Mapoe and Chilliboi.

Reinach's return is unsure - he was supposed to be out for 6 weeks and if that is the case he will only be back sometime after the June tests series started.  If he is back before then - he should be included as suggested by you.

What games have YOU been watching?  In the Hurricanes game Chilliboi carried the ball 6 times making a total of 11 meters and he made no tackles at all.  In the game before that he was even worse - though he managed to make 2 tackles.   That is way below par, but I can understand your assessment of OUTSTANDING - because you do always get performances wrong.

As expected - the ifiot believe fiction - not facts.   Shall I give you the stats for those games in full?   It is time-consuming and I can do much better - but here it is:-

 

Ralepelle 0/0 0 0/0/5 26 1 1 0 0 3/0 0/0 2 0/0 Ralepelle 0/0 0 0/2/12 58 3 2 1 3 7/1 0/0 1 0/0 Ralepelle 0/0 0 0/1/2 2 0 0 0 1 2/0 0/0 0 0/0   Ralepelle 0/0 0 0/1/6 11 0 0 0 0 0/0 0/0 0 0/0

Strrictly interpreted - Chilliboi had a good game against the Kings - but all Bulls played well that day since something went wrong in the Kings defensive set-up.   He had an average game the previous week - but giving away 2 penalties is not in his favour.

The last two games I had mentioned - he was below par and the above figures prove same.

I have seen rubbish in teams of the week - but those quoted for Chilliboi beat a whole lot of those.  Fiction writers have an influnence on you - do they?  I can assure you that I am not swayed by rugby writers at all - rather by reliable stats.

Fuck me DomMike, you really are one stupid prick. I just know that in the last few weeks Chiliboy has been outstanding, his selection in the team of the weeks by 6 RUGBY WRITERS, just confirms my views and serves to expose you for the useless ignorant wanker that you are.

Ok

You missed he point entirely - rugby writers are theworst people to rely on when trying to state an opinion,  If you do not believe your own eyes and look at games COMPREHENSIVELY then you really are not a realistic performance evaluator.    Hooker - who made two tackles in two games - must be a joke - cannot be real.

DomMike you keep confirming how stupid you are. I said Chiliboy was in outstanding form - that is based on my observations you stupid prick. I am just using 6 rugby writers to confirm my view.

 

One certainty is that 6 rugby writers that were fast asleep, would have more substance in their rugby analysis that the complete ignorant shit you dish out.

Calm down now.  We all know your observation of matches is suspect - you miss out 50% on games.  It was notonly ESPN stats that indicated Chilliboi made only 2 tackles in two games - it was also two other statistical sites that showed the same info.

You rely on rugby writers for an opinion on matters - that really is the pits.   The guys write things that will seel their papers - not nearly ever what happened on the field of play.   That is why their selections are so weird.   Get real and start taking all aspects of games into account.   Now put your dunce cap on and go and sit in the corner - dumbo.

DomMike, are you really this thick, or are you just trying to create the impression you are stupid? Since when did 2 tackles define a players performance in a game - wow there is thick and then we get this shit. Now do yourself a favour and go look up the meaning of the word 'rely' and 'confirm'. For you see, I don't 'rely' on rugby writers, I just use them to 'confirm' my observations. Take your time with working out the difference to stupid clown. Chiliboy has been in outstanding form in the last month or so and certainly merits a place in a 38 man squad - but hey ho you are too fucking stupid to comprehend that.
