Get some brains back and think. Fantasy points are based on stats - nothing else,

Well Pakie if your centres get no ball it’s a bit difficult expecting them to score tries - a little obvious don’t you think - fuck I thought you were a little more intelligent than this?


I'm not the one going on about tries Dave, Mike is.

You started with the stats story and I just folloe up on it, I have not seen a clean break beatin g one r to defenders for a long time by the cashnaller, By the way your version of try assists is rarely given and does not include he BS you said it is.

Well, no one here would expect you to.

No idea what this means, but it sounds like the bullshit it probably is.

Esterhozen is a god at center.. cracks the line every time and offloads after that 80%of the time. Best we have. But he is so big, Jake may have been right….he could have been the blindsider Dud has never been.


As for Kolisi, he looks like a scrumhalf out there. Blown off the ball every time, bounced back in the tackle…I suppose if you take a weighted average of Dud and Kolisi there are two loosies there, but neither can fetch.

Hard to tell which is more pathetic . . . ou Maaik's hate campaign against Esterhuizen or Moffie's hate campaign against PSdT.


What we do know is that neither of the Grumpy Old Men is capable of changing his mind.

Absolutely not a hate campaign…he looks like a lovely bloke. But you were the guy who called Schalk’s ball carrying toothless….how much more toothless is Dud. But you think he is great….explain.

Wow I’ve read some shit in my time - Kolisi blown off the ball and bounced back - that’s just a complete lie


Esterhuizen while he has been slightly effective with his bashing this season, he has more than confirmed the reason de Allende has been preferred at the Boks


de Allende is without doubt the better player, Esterhuizen’s solid at best performances for the Sharks this season proves that

Undoubtedly the better player….based on hot air. Esterhozen does everything Dud does and way more….offloading, organizing the defense, clearance kicking.

You are lying about Kolisi being bounced - that is utter bullshit


As for Esterhuizen being better than de Allende - no chance - and his current showings for the Sharks proves that


Rassie got it spot on - de Allende is the better option and part of the reason the Boks have achieved what they have

You are lying about Kolisi not being smashed off the ball…totally in evidence against Ulster.


As for Dud Allende you keep beating that drum. But there is nothing in the numbers that provides anything to support.


Sure the numbers aren’t everything, but great backs show up in the numbers. If you looked at BOD and Jean you would see that clearly…..tries, clean breaks, try assists, tackle success.


Dud Allende excels in nothing. It’s simply not credible that a great center would never show up in the match stats. Because he is just de Wet Barry without the tackle

Evidence where Kolisi was smashed backwards against Ulster or better still throughout his career implying he is not physical enough


de Allende’s stats in virtually every game are there for the reading, just like him making teams of the year or selected as such by the likes of Jean and Schalk or by Aplon saying he was better than Jean having played with both


All this by a poor player in your books? Fuck me given the above who the hell are we going to believe - I can assure you it’s not you

Mozart brings up BS on site due to his prejudice against some players, A player whom in 5 years was World Ruuby Player of the Year is useless according to his massive prejudice and love of BS spreading Aplaer selected as part of the world eam repeatedly as the numbe 12 player of the year is useless according to th e same idioy,

The evidence of Kolisi failing over the ball is there in every game. As for Dud Allende 5 runs in the WC final, 1 meter gained. And he misses 25% of his tackles.

This De Allende saga as we all know has been going for yonks, matter of fact it reminds me of the endless slagging off of Quinton De Kock and if that wasn't pathetic enough it also reminds me of the endless saga about the jacket, the buttons on the jacket, the colour of the jacket, the size of the jacket.....the shirt....the size of the buttons...... UURRRRRRGGGHHHH!!!!

Dud Allende playing in the WC winning team with great ball….outgained by an aggregate 57 meters by his direct Irish, French, English, AB opponents. Mostly because they were much more involved….in position to get the ball, backing up other ball carriers. Alert to the opportunities.

Probably a good thing looking at where Kolbe had to catch it - jumping and behind him.


Anyway, DDA's best moment since slapping away Biggar in 2019. A while coming.

de Allende is the best 12 the Boks have ever had - he edges Jean de Villiers as Aplon correctly calls


And imagine being a rugby follower that does not rate him

Actually viewed in real time it was a pretty good pass. Ben Earl is very hyped but actually not a great tackler….Dud tractored him out the way and Slade’s tackle attempt was also brushed aside. A nice bit of play by Dud.

Williams try makes one wonder what the Sharks are doing,

Nothing sturdy about Jayden he is small it’s Jordan that is sturdy


Plenty of good there - has good skills and is powerful - his best position is 15 or 12, he is not a 10 but more of one than Willemse was


Jayden at 9 is in shit form at the moment - too indecisive

In view in the constant carping and BS spreading on site I watch ed the following matches and concentrated on the indicated playes in each match:-


Lions - Mills

Sharks - Esrerhuizen

Stormers - G oosen,


In the case of Mills he made a mistake makig a pass that went astry - and that a enough for some site members to concentrate on that inicent and ignored what happened in the rest of the match s expected from the membes. In both defence nd in bacline play he ahd a good and very match and in my rating I woukd give im 7/10 in the match.


In the ase of Esterhuisen I saw hat he did in t he case o the second try of Uster he was not anywhee near the ball and was trotting back sloly to the braeakdown point - no real effor at all trying to get back, wher he played no role in trying to preent the scrin g of the try.or the rest he was l;ess active in the game from both attacking and defending poits of voe, I would give him 7/10 too, In vie of this being his debut match on URC level I shhe h e opinion of the comenttor - he had a solid andactive game he would be satisfied with his new experunce,


In the case of Gosen he was hyper-actvive and vey effecive . I ould give him 8/10 for his very active and effectve erformance - both in attacking and defending/ .
