So if you lose against the Japs in the pools, you get the Allblacks in the quarters?
Who was the best loosie on the field - the Japan captain obviously.
No Strzok - I have always supported Labuschagne - the player you always claim not a test level player. He is a worse nightmare for you every time he plays for Japan. LOL
Throw in 18 tackles made and excellent work at breakdown points - the idiotic personified Strzok is getting more embarrassed after every game Labuschagne play for Japan. Always an idiot Strzok is,
Remember Labuschagne played against Ireland (rated no 1 in the world) and Kolisi against Namibia (probably no 18 in the world) - the example the birdbrain gave is hilarious and shows his mentality, LMAO
There is a difference Dave. I would have Labuschagne ahead of every one of the SA loosies in the present WC squad bar Du Toit,
Ceradyne
Very funny that one.

Very funny that one.
Kolisi??
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahaha!!1
Of course it would be, Kolisi.
You have a knack of selecting the useless, Dave.
Always have.
Japan are a much improved side to the team that thumped the Boks.
That hiding was just shameful.
Ireland faced a different beast. They have nothing to be ashamed of.
This Japanese side would have run 50 past Meyer's Goats.
Rugby men know that ... fools don't.

Obviously we differ on the issue of the importance of breakdown ball protection and recovery as well as a vey high and effective tackle efficiency, Labuschagne in the last two tests made a total of 36 tackles - which is a very high figure even for a loosie. All the loosies mentioned by you averaged about 10 tackles per match even on franchise and not test level,
However, my main contention has in fact nothing to do with the present scenario - the horse has bolted - and everything to do with the dud very pace-deficient loosies Meyer and Coetzee in their stupidity specialized in and the support he received from members who knows zilch about rugby and give players demeaning names on site - normally lying about issues too.
Japan what a team! A great day for rugby and a great win against a really great team. My power rankings (at present. can change depending on next games in the series):
England
Wales
Australia
Ireland
New zealand
Argentina
Japan
South Africa
France
Scotland
This Japanese has done some great things. They have put thirty points on both Australia and New Zealand since they last time they played those two and beat the Boks in 2015 and now beat Ireland. They had a blip in a wold cup friendly warm up against the overrated Boks this year but they have played really well most of the time. You just got to admit that they are better than a lot of people think.
Hey CleanCut, if the Boks played like they did against New Zealand against Japan they would have been given a right pumping. Your Boks cant tackle for shit, the most overrated defence in world rugby. Is there one Bok who looked like a strong tackler? I didnt see even one. really funny that New Zealand needed that open space to clinch the game wat a cripple fight it was.

Back with a new User Name and already writing BS on site. Clueless as only Liza Page can be.
So what do you thoink about the Boks playing Japan in the semis? Is their muscle enough to win?
At least he is faulty in that as well. All humans err - but some twice or even many more times than others. Erasmus sole problem is he selected a few players on reputation - half of Meyers normal squad was only selected on reputation and he disregarded performance totally. Hu ge difference,
