Moz you are a fucking idiot


No one said Kolisi was our greatest player - Rooi is spot on - but he is a damn fine player, certainly our best openside in my opinion an opinion shared by many


Easily the best captain we have had - ahead of Pienaar and Smit who were great

I like Siya, but he stood on Eben and Diane's shoulders...still, he was the leader...well done....the others accepted his lead..

It’s not possible to say Kolisi stood on others shoulders - how the hell wouid we know - we are not privy to the inner goings on


Its all wild speculation stemming from where?

You seem to think you know, though, since you're calling everyone who disagrees with you idiots with zero knowledge.

My take on Kolisi is based on his interviews - a born leader, inspirational - so it’s pretty obvious he is no different on the field


We can’t say the same of say PSDT’s interviews now can we?

Exactly, so why is he the one standing up when the inspirational born leader sits around sucking on a water bottle in the very moment that inspirational leadership is required?

The talk wouid have happened in the change room by the coaching side at halftime.


Chat in the huddle after the coaches have had their say comes from any of the senior players


Are you seriously stupid enough to now define Kolisi’s lack of leadership on the strength of PSDT the quiet one for once having a say


Unbelievable

In a World Cup semi final with his team demotivated and losing? Absolutely.


If you're not going to show up as a leader then, when do you want to show up?

Well we do know who was the captain. All this conjecture is meaningless.


Calling Duane Vermeulen "Diane" is also pretty disrespectful if you ask me.

Rassie scolded them and then fucked off. Watch your Chasing the Sun S2 Ep 4 to see the mood in the changing room after that until PSDT gets up. He didn't raise anyone's spirits.

I do notice you moving into apologist territory Dave, now shifting any leadership responsibility to the coaches and away from your " inspirational born leader" figure.

No dumbfuck - the chat is done by the coaching staff - they fuck off as you say and then the players usually form a huddle where any one of the senior players/leaders say something. Its an in the moment thing - it’s not always Kolisi that is going to say something in the huddle - he respects the fact that there are a number of leaders in the squad - that chat comes from either Kolisi, Vermeulen, Eben or Pollard - seems very seldom by PSDT, which is why it was that much more impactful coming from the quiet leader not the usual vocal one


Im struggling to understand what part of this you are not getting - have you ever played rugby, have you ever been in a change room and team huddle at halftime? Clearly not

So point me to one measurable inspirational Kolisi moment, Dave. And I don't mean when the camera focuses on him next to the field where he's been sitting for 30 minutes while the rest of the team won the playoff without any input or leadership from him with Matthew Pearce just about bursting into tears yelling "Siyamthanda Kolisi, inspirational" into the commentary mic.

Point to me any moment on the field he appears to take charge….hell any moment he is giving the players instructions…and player he encourages after something has gone wrong.


There is zero evidence of leadership beyond the anthem and good evidence we did better in the WC playoffs when he was off the park.


Hype and nonsense.

Your take on Kolisi as a player and leader is on par with your ignorant take on PSDT and de Allende


Clueless

Your take on the same players is ignorant ….you just believe. When I ask you to demonstrate field leadership by Kolisi nothing comes to mind. To demonstrate Dud Allende accelerating the line or putting a player through the gap….nothing. Or what Dud Toit does exceptionally well beyond tackling nothing.


Pretty soon you’l tell me about what the ‘experts’ say. For you it’s a question of ‘feelings’, facts just annoy you.


Remember when the Deysel twins were going to dominate rugby, Another feeling.


You are welcome to your own views, but if others disagree, it’s not automatic that they are the idiots.

Moz it’s simple there is absolutely no chance in hell I’m going to trawl through footage to find your requested evidence - I don’t have the time, the desire but most importantly, I’m not stupid enough to believe that that evidence would have you change your ignorant mind on players like PSDT, DA etc


When has there ever been a point in flogging a dead horse


It just astounds me that you believe a twice world player of the year is as shit as you make him out to be yet you salivate over a player who is physically incapable of performing the role of the position he holds


That says everything I need to know about your take on players

There you go again….McCaw was twice world player of the year and you don’t rate him….but because Dud was more popular than Eben and won Eben’s award, I’m supposed to rate him.


Do you get how screwed up your logic is Dave.
