More likely trying to paint the situation otherwise.

SARU should throw down the gauntlet.
Coetzee's losers XV vs Jake White SA overseas Barbarian has been XV. If Coetzee loses- then schedule another Indaba.

A SA international squad can not be justified because they beat another SA international squad.
In the current situation, the justification for a SA squad is winning.
Out of 3 WCs, SA must win 2. Out of 6 4Ns, SA must win 5.
It is no longer about the priviledge to lose. It is about the duty of winning.
Useless to line up two teams that play loser rugby to determine who is going to be the fortunate loser.
Compulsory to field one team that wins.

WTF? Rugby in SA is justified by the players actually playing the game and by the fans supporting it. Even in bad patches like now, the fans are still interested. P!ssed off at how poor we are, but still watching.

I would suggest they set this up ASAP as that way a South African team is guaranteed to win at least 1 test this year

Draad this is far more serious than a bad patch oak. SA Rugby is disintegrating. Unfortunately there is not the will to address the many issues.
While the kiwis rejoice and turncoats like rooitwiterrbug and wee cc are filled with glee at the failures, real savvy rugby supporters here fear for the future of the game. If an OZ or NZ coach had fared as badly as Coetzee he would have been fired. But here rugby is not the focus quotas are. Then there are a myriad of problems. As a consequence even our young players ship out. Our best coaches don't coach here apart from Ackermans coaching team. We refuse to even get in outside help as the focus again is not on solutions.
Its being going downhill for some years now and many ask where is the reason to hope?Hence the importance of becoming a fan of another sport. For me its tennis. A sport where merit is the currency and bent refs are not a problem

Typical Stompies, their team is rubbish so by definition all of SA rugby is rubbish!
And they wonder why they're called the "Blowhards"!
LMAO!
Come on Sharks and Lions!

The Goats would be cleaned up by North West Eastern Free State at the moment.
It's no longer a big deal to lose to the entry level teams of world rugby.
We're growing accustomed to it.
And yes ....... GOOOOOOOOOO LIIOOOONSSSS & SHAAAAAAAAAARKSSSSSSSS!!!

As stated, this looks like ponzi.
SA rugby can not be justified, there is no reason to practise rugby in SA.
Noticeably, the composition of the teams can be adjusted in any way.
This NH side played against a selection of SA white players only. And the winner is...
This kind of scheme only fool people who want to be fooled. You must be compliant to fall that kind of stuff.
At the moment, the only questions a SA side must answer are the ones asked previously.

This board is made of same old, same old. Same bits repeated over and over again.

Majority rules...
One of these comments with all the salt in it.
It takes foot to declare stuff like that in the context of SA.
SA is that country that fails to get one single decent rugby player out of the large majority.Yet majority rules.

There is no scapegoating.
The answer gives as an innuendo a determinism proper to african people when it comes to orphaned children (this issue is different from starving kids and as now not yet been investigated )
If this is the case, then not only rugby must be terminated in SA but it should not have been introduced in the first place.
It is another argument working toward terminating rugby in SA.
Their natural born tendencies will not be curbed by allocating resources to rugby.
Terminating rugby will not ensure that the tendency is addressed.
Not terminating rugby ensures the tendency can not be addressed.

It is about getting your priorities right.
Once again, terminating rugby is no guarantee that the starving kids issue is going to be tackled.
Not terminating rugby ensures the issue can not be addressed.
For the orphan thing, it was not investigated. The comment suggests though there are tendencies. In this case, rugby should not have been introduced in SA. A bit like feeding milk to people who are lactose intolerant. You poison them.

Trad
Just a question - what is the annual budget on rugby? Definitely less than R500 million and the money does not come from the State - it comes from private individuals.
The Social Grant Budget is R17 billion per month - and some of the piffling amounts made available to poor families is pilfered by the crooks in Government and their fellow-travellers.
So what difference will that R500 million makes to starving people even if the Government fleece the people of the R500 million and Zuma steals it all. There is no logic to your argument at all - bearing in mind that the state-supported soccer has a much bigger budget of which a major proportion came from Government institutions. So is soccer also to be banned to stop starvation ?

Why do you single out rugby as a sport to be terminated and not soccer?
